Mixon developments

[Heisennberg]

Oh im sure she's been planning this for a while, makes sense. But even if the video was public, i dont see why it still couldnt be admitted as evidence in a civil hearing.

Regardless nothing will come of this other than some serious egg on faces and distractions. This won't topple Stoops, and Mixon has already been "punished"

They would do more damage to themselves if they try to pull a Goodell and punish him again. Ray Rice won his lawsuit against the NFL. It could harm Mixon's NFL prospects if the video is leaked at the wrong time. Not sure where he sits on the NFL draft potential, but this could push a mid to late rounder to undrafted especially now in the devalued RB NFL.

If the tape comes out, Ray Rice 2.0. If it doesn't, Mixon is free to work his swooner magic.

Maybe I'm old-fashioned, but no. You don't, "lay her ass out." You fend her off with the minimal effort possible, without harming her.

Imagine your pastor or priest suddenly had a neurological issue, and came after you, or if your child did. That's how you handle it.

The only exceptions are if she's shooting at you, or if she's trained in martial arts or a boxer or bodybuilder and about to clean your clock. Even there, you do the minimal needed to defend yourself.

Maybe I wasn't clear enough, but I was being sarcastic in my initial "yeah I'd do exactly what Mixthug did".

Totally agree with you and said as much at the tail end when I got real. Can't hit a woman. Unless she is trying to murder you, then reasonable self defense would be ok.

KO'ing her because she pushed you.....not cool.

If it happened right before the draft maybe. For Mixon this happened on his 18th birthday, before he ever suited up for a single practice and by the time he does get drafted, it'll have been three years (maybe 4) since the incident. Usually teams avoid people with legal issues because they tend to be troublemakers who continue their behavior. If Mixon is three years behind the only questionable decision he's made, I think an nfl team will take a chance on him, no problem. I mean look at tyreke hill, the guy from osu who on multiple occasions beat and kicked his pregnant girlfriend. Not once, not twice. His offense makes Mixon's incident look like a walk in the park. Chiefs drafted him, and he only played one season of big boy football.

I agree that if Mixon has no more trouble and has a great college career, his NFL stock will be non impacted by that assault. I also think the chances of this being his last "incident" are damned small.

 

[Heisennberg]

He's been pretty stellar for two years. So you think maybe this will be the year he does something else?

 

[Scholz]

Only a morally bankrupt human being would describe breaking a girl's face in multiple places as a "questionable decision" or a "walk in the park". I'm sad for humanity that people like you exist, okie. Simply disgusting.

Is this topic still going on? Wow lol

I was actually thinking the same thing..... was surprised to see it bc i forgot it even existed... lol and i started this thread.

Notice how OSU dismissed him for his assault on a female? At least he can argue he was harshly punished and learned his lesson. I believe he also voluntarily redshirted before he ever had any issues so one could argue OSU punished him twice. That mean ole RS year is such a brutal discipline.
