Should have stayed at Iowa.

#1 He should have stayed at Iowa
#2 I don't think this happens to him if he did
#3 Agree with BTR that he is just getting ready for the NBA
#4 I also don't think he is a bad kid just started hanging out with the wrong crowd and made a really stupid mistake.

I feel bad for the kid, he really screwed up but he will still get his shot in the NBA the only thing he is missing out on his the second half of his last year playing college basketball.

He should have sat at 1 year at Tennessee before playing. Maybe he would have grown up a bit.

Should have stayed at Iowa.

From what I understand of the situation, cops pulled a car over driven by someone other then Tyler. They smelled marijuana and found an open container and a handgun. If the gun is his, then he is a dumbass for carrying it. Although it seems to be the thing to do these days for black athletes. If the gun wasn't his, then he essentially just rode in a car where weed and alcohol were being consumed. Pretty sure that would be a an offense you and many others could have been busted for at some point.

I'm not saying he didn't fuck up. And if the gun was his, then he truly is a moron. But, if not, I wouldn't go as far as to say he is a piece of crap.

Minus the gun, this could have happened to me on many of occasions. Although I understand the fact that I don't have the opportunity that he has in front of him. Not that this will affect his NBA aspirations too much.

I think the others were on "indefinite suspension"...
