[Maduro]

anyone know what WR option he could have been this season (1, 2, or 3)?  looks like he may have been partying a little too hard last night...noticed him this morning on the denton jail report for dwi.  i'm interested to see how Littrell handles this situation.  for no good reason, i got a lot of faith in goree and rutherford turning some heads this year and maybe they can pick up the slack if this guy is no longer part of the plan.  gotta pray for none of our other receivers to get into any off-field trouble.  hope smiley is able to get this issue sorted out and get his life back on track quick.

Yep I checked and that's him. Ugh just use UBER or LYFT!

He's, what, 19 or 20?  Let's cut him a little slack until we know for sure what happened.  Then let's let the DPD & UNT coaching staff handle the problem.

This may be his final straw...

It's a class B misdemeanor if it's his first. One step above a traffic ticket.

Plenty of businessmen, lawyers, and dare I say members of this community that have been arrested for the same thing. 

20 year olds make dumb decisions. 

If this is an isolated incident, suspend him a game or 2 and move on.

Not sure what punishment by the coaching staff a player in the off season making a dumb decision warrants.  As everyone should know, if convicted a dwi these days carries some extensive penalties.

Maybe the new AD could install some tyoe of UBER policy?  I understand college kids are going to drink but with Uber now there is no reason to be behind the wheel.

So said Baylor........  While I don't know that this warrants a kid getting kicked off the team, he needs to be punished in some fashion.  Gone are the days of the off the field issues being handled by the legal system.  The expectation has been set that schools (and professional teams) handle these issues independently, as the legal system has been exposed (in some cases) of letting guys off the hook.  And please don't get me wrong, this is nowhere on par with happened in Waco.  Nonetheless, Littrell and the administration need to take their own action here, regardless of what the legal system does.

Would be terrible for him after his football life if convicted. Eliminates some places of employment.

Hope he gets it together.

heard that he had a poor attitude in spring ball.

Right now he is probably Turner Frowny

Not a lot, he is just running low on straws.

It was surprising to see his name missing from the 2 deep at the end of spring.  8 receivers on the list and he was not one of them.

[UNTLifer]

I thought he was injured during the spring which led to his lack of playing time.

Noted in Vito's blog:

Smiley struggled during spring practice with a broken hand that limited him and dropped off UNT’s

post-spring depth chart.
