seems to have been a friend of his , maybe he thought the drink would help

That is awful. I am at a loss for words.

Wow.  The plot thickens. 
CNS will have decisions to make.

If the deceased friend issue is legit I hope the coach pairs a measured punishment with compassion and support.

I hope his record is clean up to this point in time, if he's has some discipline issues in the past it may not go well for him.

CNS talked yesterday about having leaders on the team that see and prevent players from making these types of mistakes and he said the team needed more of them. He felt there were some that wanted to be leaders but weren't man enough to stand up to some of the players to prevent such happenings. He did allude to Rolonda McLain and stood by his statement that he never had any trouble out of Rolando. He said when Rolando spoke, everybody listened and it could have been because everybody was scared of him. We got a good laugh out of that.

Smith was a starter yesterday and was pretty much on the field all day. He will definitly be missed.

Does anyone know what punishments other coaches have used?  I agree with J, what type of record does he have up to this point?  This gives another player a chance to step up and be contributor.

True. This may have been the cause. Lets get this kid some help. He is trying to deal with the death of a friend. I still don't condone what he did.

hindsight huh ? 

when he tweeted that he couldn't get the kid off his mind I remember thinking
"hope he don't do something dumb"
then brushed it off that he wouldn't , someone would be there for him at
the U of A if he needed them ...

I think we forget that these giants we see on the football field are in
fact just kids in a mans body that still have kid problem solving skills

when something happens they are not sure just how to deal with maybe
this is one thing of what we get ...

This is sad but CNS has brought in paid people to talk to these kids and remind them they have to Think. I really feel like if he is drinking and driving he needs help that football will not provide but I will stand by what CNS decides. RTR!

Just my opinion, but I'd expect a 2-4 game suspension if Geno mans up and does what he's supposed to do (which I think he will).

With that said, Coach employs numerous types of disciplinary measures.  I hope if it turns out to be just a game or two suspension that our fanbase doesn't overreact and think he's being lenient.  There were many who were quick to "throw him under the bus" yesterday on the break of this news.

Yeah, I was one of those who was pissed at first.  
Then I heard a rumor that Geno was friends with the kid who died.  Alcohol won't solve that, but who among us hasn't taken a drink after a shock (preachers excepted, Ricky).

I hope a decision of his suspension comes quickly. CNS doesn't usually take too much time on these types of situations. I would think we would hear something today or tomorrow. I'm going to guess 4 games.

That's pretty harsh. 
Just a guess, but I doubt CNS knows what he'll do until he meets with Geno; however, inquiring minds want to know.
You could "start a poll".

I read that as "Preachers accepted, Ricky" at first.  I think that may have been more appropriate (at least for a Baptist)
