Oregon got another one. This time it's the sensational running back LeMichael James getting arrested. He was arrested for an alleged domestic violence incident. I think it's intresting that Oregon, who just came off a loss to Ohio State, is falling apart once again. Of course, the first thing to happen was the punch heard 'round the world. Then they cleaned up in time for a Rose Bowl appearance. Now they go back to Jerimieah Masoli getting (almost) jailed, and now James has to step in for more face time. Oregon is making headlines, certainly, but not in the fashion they would have hoped to this offseason. I wonder what Chip Kelly must be thinking..Would he bench the best players on his team? He's a fairly young coach that is willing to take risks, so I don't see why not. If he does, then the NCAA will come a 'callin, just like they are now with USC. I'm not going to sit here and tell you I don't like Oregon. I actually like Oregon a lot. It shocks me what these guys do. The worst part for me, though, is that no one will do anything about it. After their jail time, they will go back to trying to win game and MNC's, and no one will say anything about it. I guess that, more than anything, frustrates me about College Football. These guys are given 5 chances, knowing they have it. Then they go to the NFL, and besides some (See Maurice Clarrett) don't get weeded out. That's the saddest part for me, watching football at the college level. Anyway, just some thoughts to ponder. What do you guys think about all this?
