In May, I blogged about some of the troubles at the University of Oregon, including the rap sheet of UO's quarterback Jeremiah Masoli and their attempts to clean up their athletic program. Masoli, who was kicked off of the Ducks' football team on June 9th after his 2nd arrest in 6 months, is now being courted by Mississippi . By the way, Masoli's arrests were for burglary and marijuana possession. It seems crazy that Mississippi coach Huston Nutt would be willing to add a felon to his program. Jeremiah Masoli represents one of my pet peeves in college football: that a felons sometimes get countless chances.
For those who don't like college football, there is probably the same or greater ratio of players with a long rap sheets in the NFL, so this problem isn't just limited to the college game.
