"one incident"

He broke a girl's jaw, cheekbone, and other bones in her face for slapping him after he used a homosexual slur. She said something to him after he insulted her friend, he bucked at her in a threatening manner, she slapped him, and then he hit her with a right hook that sent her to the hospital.

I understand you want to win, but at least maintain some integrity/humanity and don't downplay what happened. He's an amazing athlete but an absolute shitlord.

Uh huh, and this incident was over three years ago.  He was kicked off of OU's Football team for over and a year, and has done massive amounts of Community Service.  Can we please stop talking about something he's already been punished for?  There aren't even any legal proceedings anymore it's so old.  

He will get a second chance, and it won't be by us because our team is taking "the morale high ground."  

Not even gonna mention the fact she spit on him too, huh?  Called him names, hit him first, all this stuff huh?  And BLATANTLY instigated the incident?  Just gonna ignore that as well?

He was not kicked off the team. He redshirted for a year so he didn't lose anything and the girl did not spit on him so quit regurgitating BS to make him look better. The kid absolutely deserves a 2nd chance but I don't believe it will be here.

She could've pushed icicles down his piss hole, you don't hit a woman. Walk away. Get away from the situation. You definitely don't do what he did.

 

The guy will get a second chance and I believe in them. Just a .000001% chance it's with us.

Agree on everything you stated.  I think with his prior stuff with DV, that and him being shy does not help him at all.  

Its sad really, a Biletnikoff winner shouldn't be undraftable. He needs a better coach and to just be transparent and honest.  His camp are costing themselves millions

Incorrect, he couldn't use any of the facilities during this time frame.  He was redshirted.  But, could not use any of the OU football facilities.  The media doesn't want the fact he couldn't use any of the facilities known.  Because they want to keep their "grudge" against him going.

No, we can't, because he did it. You don't get to just put the seal on something once time has been done. That's not how this works and it never has. Otherwise, we wouldn't be looking at all of these other folks sideways.

We don't stop talking about bad things that have happened because we don't want to forget and allow history to repeat itself. It's very simple.

Again, the kid is an amazing athletic talent, but is an idiot at best. Describing the situation as "one incident" and implying that there's a statute of limitations on how long somebody should be regarded as a piece of poo shows a total disconnect from reality, or at least basic decency.

As for spitting on him... Mixon never claimed it himself. Otherwise, she'd have been hit with the assault charges instead. In fact, she claimed that it was Mixon that spat on her. Mixon also harassed her gay friend along with several of his teammates, which then escalated inside once the friend responded with an ethnic slur in response to the homosexual slur (NEITHER ARE OK).

This dude could have used his RB vision then and left. Or he could have, you know, not harassed somebody over their sexual orientation.

Regardless though, in the end, you're trying to downplay something that happened to another human being just for bragging rights over a game. That's vile.

I'll take integrity over a trophy any day of the week.
