SK needs to be kept on the team this season. Why? Because his "crime" was victimless and he's been a good citizen for 2 years. Suspend him for the Spring Game and 1H against CSU. That't it. End of story.
Obviously the program has made incredible strides OFF the field this past year. However, the BUFFS have not beaten a team they were dogs to by more than a field goal in 4 years? 5 years? And then maybe 3 good wins with Hawk? So that's 3 good wins in 8,9 10 years? WHY is this the case? We all know its complicated and nuanced. But the basic fact that CU has played LITTLE boy football while the vast majority of the competition accelerated its collective commitment to winning holds 100% true. Does CU manage to beat UCLA or USC a year ago if Josh T wasn't suspended a ridiculous entire season? No clue. Maybe not. But it's a game of inches and it's a game of tipping points. For all the good will currently building in the program, lets not forgot CU has NOT reached the tipping point yet. In fact, not even close. Let's also not forget, the SO much can still go wrong and derail this season that is 100% outside of the program's control...stuff like injuries, bad calls, bad luck....CU's luck is almost comically bad - we all know that. Let's not leave this to luck. Control what can be controlled.
SK didn't hurt anyone. Keep him in the program and don't ruin his life too. This isn't a kid being accused of rape. In fact, not even close to close.
It's BIG BOY football time.
