in carriage this past weekend. Remember Bobby D had said something about him wanting to take on a leadership role, wondering what the punishment for this will be?

>>According to a source, it was McQuillan’s roommate whom he assaulted. McQuillan was released on a $500 non-surety bond and his court date was April 20.
“The athletic department is aware of the situation and we will wait for the judicial process to take its full course. In the meantime, Sean has a responsibility to finish out the semester academically,” Mike Enright, Senior Associate Director of Athletics/Communications, said.<<
I think this past weekend was whatever is left of Spring Weekend. The thing with the victim being a roommate is they usually room with teammates so it'll be interesting to find out if that is the case here.
I think it has more to do with injuries no?IIRC a felony 2 is hitting someone with anything other than a fist. (kick, knee, elbow, object?). Fights happen, fights between teammates or friends happen. Hopefully this was a minor incident and he can continue on at UConn.
Maybe both, I don't know.I think it has more to do with injuries no?
Too simplistic. What if the other kid punched him in the mouth first and then Mcquillin went HAM and beat the out the kid?Diaco earns his stripes on this one. If this is correct I say give him a ticket on the next bus to Glastonbury. One way. Send a message loud and clear that this crap will not be tolerated. I mean this from a football team perspective. And I mean it if this gets pled down to one of those community service deals too. Only way he puts on a UConn uniform again is if all charges are dropped. In fact that ought to be the deal for all teams for a while. You get arrested, you hit the road.

If he's dismissed I won't be happy. Like someone already said this wouldn't even register as newsworthy at big boy programs. We've had people getting into fights in the past and remaining on the team. We cannot chase the P5 invite while tying one hand behind our back.
I'm not advocating we go full Louisville, but there has to be some middle ground here.
No no this is the Boneyard, we convict first then review evidence at a later date. See Tyler Olander.Too simplistic. What if the other kid punched him in the mouth first and then Mcquillin went HAM and beat the out the kid?
My point, there is simply not enough known about the situation to come to your verdict. People don't generally get into fisticuffs for no reason at all.
Sorry, I forgot!No no this is the Boneyard, we convict first then review evidence at a later date. See Tyler Olander.
