I don't know what the other three did to get suspended. Floyd makes it sound alcohol and/or drug celebration related in regards to graduation. Hagerup has been suspended in the past for drugs and said in his statement he had relapse.


I don't think a moving violation really falls into the same category as that other stuff.

It's not about the violation. It's about a pattern of acting as if one is above the law. The fact is that Robinson has a history of ignoring laws (link). Because of his performance on the field, TSUN coaches enabled him and set an example for the rest of the team. The current suspensions are rather cynical in that light.

So what do TSUN players learn from the coaches' reaction to this type of behavior?


  • His license was first suspended in September 2010, after driving without a seat belt.
  • In May 2011, he was cited for no proof of insurance and a violation of his graduated license permit.
  • He was pulled over on November 4, 2012 for failing to signal and for having expired plates.
  • After he was arraigned, he did not show up for his December 14th jury trial. We realize that he quits any time he's put under pressure, but that was unacceptable.
  • Realizing that a bench warrant for his arrest has been issued, he arrived at the court on the 17th of December, pleading guilty to driving witha suspended license and expired license plates. He paid $879 in fines and court costs and TSUN declares the matter closed.
Is the turn signal violation still to be resolved? Every year, thousands are killed on the roads. Traffic laws are put in place to help lower the risks of driving.

TSUN coaches had a chance to say that the law matters and they made a statement, "If we need you, we'll look the other way. If we don't, we'll make a public show."

I hope none of our players ever get suspended for being shitty drivers. I don't see anything in your post worthy of getting worked up over a non-suspension.

You're not reading Steve19's post very closely if you think his point is that DR should be suspended because he is a [censored] driver.

I wouldn't and judging by the character and humbleness that Braxton Miller exhibits I don't expect to see him put himself in a situation where punishment would need to be administered.

He voluntarily went to tsun.

I'd say that other stuff is pretty fucking far from the dumbest thing he's ever done.

8-5, lost to every team with a pulse, needed extreme luck to beat Northwestern in overtime, failed to score a touchdown in three separate games, should finish unranked. Hard to believe that some moron picked Michigan to be the best team in the country this year: Bob Asmussen Looking Stupid Trying to Defend Picking Michigan No. 1 in AP Poll.

I realize that Michigan played, and lost to, the top three teams in the country this season, but they lost those games by a combined 80-41 (average of 26.7 to 13.7), were outgained in those three games by 1,066 yards to 847 yards (average of 355 yards to 282 yards, and they failed to gain over 300 yards in each game), and lost the turnover battle by 13 to 5 (they committed at least three turnovers in each loss).
