***Leonte Carroo suspended***

[LevaosLectures]

Britt was so well handled that when draft scouts brought up his character issues posters on this very board didn't believe it.

 

[rufeelinit]

If we are 4-8 this year can I blame KF for that or does he get a pass for all the off the field stuff?

 

[newell138]

Remember how the Mike Rice scandal was on every channel every day for a week? When the details come out, if what I am hearing is true, be prepared for more of that, but even worse. Multiple heads will be rolling and could possibly mean no NFL in Carroo's future.

 

[IL Lusciato]

Is il l laviano family friend etc? Been real real strident

Nope. Just actually heard the exact opposite from inside people. It is also pretty obvious who the team wants vs the fans. There are reasons I'm not disclosing.

agree totally but I was asked not to forward any details, since its all 2nd and 3rd hand, so until verified I don't think its fair to post it.

Good call in not posting it yet.

In spite of the fact that we all seem to be prepared for something ugly coming down, I suspect that many of us will be shocked when we learn the news. I know that I will.

 

[Mr Magoo]

hoepfully, it's not as bad as I fear, but I can't see how anyone can be shocked anymore.. I have heard nothing but good things about Caroo as a person from those who know him very well, so I am a little surprised there. However, I'm not surprised at all by the other arrests.

What on Earth can it be?

I almost hate to ask... But we will find out soon enough

Thank god for the Giants collapsing and Thursday night football. Hopefully that will shorten the news cycle. Tara Sullivan had it on the cover of the Record this AM.

If what I am hearing is true then it involves the Donald, Miss America and a few illegals but I won't say more until I get confirmation.

^PSU_nut thanks for that substance filled post. This is not exactly a fun day for us. We're in no mood right now for it.

 

[LevaosLectures]

I disagree. The gallows humor is the only thing getting me through this.

If Davon Jacobs could catch and eli Manning could fall down, this would have been a great weekend.

 

[LevaosLectures]

^^above assumes that a happy LC and a happy crowd filtering out would have meant no fights for anyone. Which is probably true.

 

[RUinPAC10land]

And Tony Butler, Johncarlo Valentin, Jovani Haskins, Jordan Fuller, Malcolm Pridgeon, and Chinedu Odeogu all end up committing to boot, giving us a top 25 class.

Why stop there? Gary and Walker come back as well. RU sneaks into the top ten.

Is there any chance the swift punishment of Carroo has to do with him hitting one of these two supposed girls in an altercation?

 

[DownStream]

Funny, I spoke to some other parents and they were very happy with Laviano as starting QB

Laviano's parents?

Um, yes.

 

[mikemarc1]

Parents in front of me also said they were all happy with Laviano over Rettig.

 

[Saint Puppy]

I don't post much...but have been a member here for 10 plus years. If what I heard this morning is true, Carroo will not only be dismissed from the team but may also have a very hard time getting drafted this upcoming year.

Wow - this is your first post in over 10 years.....talk about waking sleeping giants - this may be the biggest news of all!!!!! - lol

But, agree it does not look good for Mr. Carroo who I always held in the 'Brian Leonard class' as far as leadership goes. This one shocks and saddens me. Trying to hold off judgement, but not sure what could be said. My guess is he went in for the right reasons, handled it poorly and it spiraled out of control.

I would like to THINK that most parents will say the "right thing," about staff decisions, when asked by non-parent fans.

I agree, but definitely sounded like they were serious.

Thanks. I needed the laugh. Brutal weekend.

Hmmmm..don't think anyone even thought of this!

Thanks for piecing that one together, Nate the Great.

 

[BROTHERSKINNY]

Enough is enough.

A once promising season has turned into a total disaster.

I am highly disappointed in Leonte no matter what happened unless it was in self defense or him defending a family member.

Coach Flood has a lot of explaining to do, his team is out of control.

Holy Moses, Get A Grip!

My experience with parents is that if they are unhappy with a decision that impacts their kid(s), it is easy to detect. They either say it, show it on their face or in their tone. When it comes to the happiness of kids, parents are not good at concealing their thoughts. They are downright bad at it.

Plus a video of incident is being looked at by the NFL commissioner right now along with the NCAA investigating whether Carroo's Air Jordans were properly inflated

Truly. When I have spoken to player parents, they have been more than happy to share (or at least insinuate) their "concerns" with coaching decisions that they feel impact the team negatively.

Personally, I find it hard to believe there was significant separation between Laviano and Rettig. So the staff went with "greater knowledge of playbook" over "stronger arm." There is obviously room for reasonable minds to disagree, but people suggesting the season would be markedly different with one or the other are, IMO, just blowing hot air.

 

[PurpleR]

I wish that the only issue being debated today on these boards was which QB should be starting.

Charged with simple assault

http://www.mycentraljersey.com/stor...tar-arrested-charged-simple-assault/72271206/

Doesn't sound quite as serious as some were leading on earlier but probably still too early to say definitively.

EDIT: not trying to marginalize it but from what I've been able to read about simple assault in NJ it doesn't sound like he punched a woman.
