[QUOTE="IlliniFoLife, post: 1232143, member: 583651"] I don't think his mistake came at a high price. The only high price was that since he is an athlete, he was scrutinized more for it but the repercussions were not severe at all. 25 hours of community service is not much and a 6 game suspension including 2 exhibition games is a small price to pay. He was injured all of last year anyways, so he didn't lose out on a medical redshirt. If anything, he comes out of it relatively unscathed from a legal perspective. The only part of this that hurts is after he graduates, he will have to discuss this incident in interviews when applying for work although he may end up playing overseas for a while after graduating from school.
