Darian Dailey Dismissed From Rutgers
- Thread starter HeavenUniv.
- Start date
I guess it was too hard to say no. Not growing up in that environment I have no idea what its like. Stupid decision regardless, hopefully he can get another chance somewhere to play football and get a degree.
He'll be getting out of prison as a 29 year old convicted felon by the time he's ready to get his life together
This was the only and right decision. Good job by Kyle and Julie...this kid does not represent what we want our players to be
i hope can get a chance somewhere else. Hopefully, he'll get probation, transfers to Juco, and turns his life around.
Ughhh come on kid. Use your head! Had a potential shot to play in the pros and a guaranteed excellent college degree. Now you're just a statistic... over 20 dollars. Sad and frustrating. Really hope he's able to turn his life around. Hate watching young guys mess their entire lives up over stupidity.
Too hard to say no to armed robbery while Dailey is the driver of the vehicle ? You've got some imagination.
yes,separate process. Rutgers may have changed its rules since the last time I looked at them, but an off-campus offense can be grounds for university disciplinary action if Rutgers thinks the perpetrator would be a danger to the campus community. With armed robbery, there is no doubt he'd be a danger.
No football scholarship, no money, no academic ability, no enrollment. The system takes care of itself.
This! What a stupid and wasteful decision - hope he can turn his life around sooner rather than later.
Millions and Millions of people grow up in "that environment", yet almost all don't resort to armed robbery.
Its really not hard to figure out.
Flood probably had little choice since this kid got enrolled in a competing 'program' for at least the near future. Its not clear if he is guilty of anything more then being a kid with a knucklehead friend and a wild night got out of hand. Reports have him being the driver, and not the one holding the pellet gun or doing the talking. Had he simply gone crab leg shopping with Jameis Winston he would have had a very different future immediately ahead of him, but even Winston wouldn't have skated on a situation with a gun. Bet of luck to him.
Back in 2011 there was some talk and reports on the role of gangs in college sports.. I don't know that this is the case here.. but it would be a very good thing for the sport if even hints of membership in a gang prevented even the most talented athletes from getting recruited.
That CBS story was largely based on this study, which was linked in the story above. I'd love to know what the top programs have done on the heels of this study.
The NCAA clearinghouse should have a higher standard. No one gets through without voluntarily releasing their juvenile records. That won't catch them all, but it would be a good start. It would add one more reason for kids with athletic aspirations to say no to gangs right from the start.

wild night got out of had = armed robbery ???
Your wild nights out are different from mine
Glad to see this happen. Sorry that it took so long to arrive at this decision. It strikes me as pretty cut and dry that his actions were not those that Rutgers could look the other way on.
Assuming he's not in jail until his late 20s I hope he gets his life straight and gets another chance, but not at Rutgers.

My post was not to excuse his behavior more of a I can't imagine what its like growing up in that environment. We all did stupid things at that age but a stupid thing for me never involved armed robbery. Its sad for him and his family.
