Smh.. Cotton district driving a 2016 escalade... 17ed his draft status...
Per Bonner Twitter. Not good. Not good at all
Well Clairon ledger just broke what I heard at the baseball game. That's gonna be an expensive mistake.
Don't drink and drive fellas.... I actually found out about this around 8a this morning but wasn't sure it was true...http://on.thec-l.com/1pn42Uo
Yup I heard at the baseball game. Surprised it took this long to break. Gonna be a very costly mistake.
yeah- gonna cost him a round most probably
Although they're completely different players, nfl gm's are probably leary of qb's that drink after manzielQuote:

Now every team is going to think he is just putting up a front when he portrays to be a God child. This sucks! Damnit DAK you couldn't get anybody to come pick you up
Hard to believe he made such a dumb mistake.
Dallas looking for a QB?Quote:

Dak should already have a "Turtle" handling his driving when he's going out.
Can we let the whole story come out before we convict him of a DUI?
Got to give the Clarion Ledger credit, this is now the top story on their website - much more important than 1000's of state residents currently losing their homes to flooding.
Absolutely a boneheaded move. Hope he learns from it.
Or the 3+ year NCAA investigation in Oxford.Quote:

Meh, Dak can't make those mistakes, but teams make decisions by getting to know the player, not by a random DUI.
The truth is that the scouts that truly know Dak are excited about this because they now think they can get him a round later.
It's not right, but my guess is that everyone on this board has driven under the influence before and so have the scouts and GMs. Good teams don't make political draft pics. They do their research and take who they feel can help them the most.
Nice job by SPD. Give him a pass and drive him home for all the good he has done. Freakin Barney Fifes on SPD. Dak did indeed screw up but the SPD should have covered this crap up once for all the good he has done for our school. Pisses me off!!
Nope...can't fault cops on this one...take that argument elsewhere.Quote:

One bad move erased all the good leadership qualities he supposedly had. Costly night out.
It only erased them for idiots.Quote:

If the Starkville PD released this to the CL he's already convicted in the media perception arena.Quote:

But Dak's gotta be smarter than that.
Yup. This shat is crazy. Just like our guys getting arrested by the sheriff dept for having beer in a dry ****ing county.Quote:

Hate it for Dak and he should have been smarter. I can remember numerous times I should have been smarter too, but wasn't. I was never caught when drinking while driving, but I never had as much on the line as Dak either. I was lucky. I never condemn a kid for this because I know how many times it could have been me. I just hope they learn from it and hopefully the next guys coming up (Ross, etc.) learns from it.
Ha, winner.Quote:

Quite frankly, I can't believe that MSU doesn't have a policy in place withSPD to cover this crap up internally and be handled by the coaching staff.Dak screwed up, but his character leading up to this unfortunate incident should have been considered. Nice job Barney. Go shine your f ing bullet
same here, dude. It's a total miracle I never crashed and hurt some one else, let alone gotten a dui, back in the day. Never again though. Dak should have had a driver.Quote:

Not daks first alcohol related incident eitherQuote:

SPD hit the jackpot for DUI arrests while MSU's football team was #1 in the country. Gotta think they've hit way over their quota of DUIs the last two years. They should of let this one get an escort home.Quote:
