Per IL podcast 5 seniors suspended 6 games. Unsure if this includes StonyBrook.

Although I am as curious as the next person (did I search Twitter? yes I did), colleges have to navigate FERPA (Family Educational Rights and Privacy Act) and, accordingly, many of them are very cautious about what information they disclose if it might even come close to the line re: violating a student's educational privacy. Moreover, from a human perspective, one can assume these are young people who made a mistake; it would be good if they aren't chained by Google searches to whatever that mistake was for the next decade or longer. I hope it wasn't too serious, that they're learning from the experience, and that the team can continue to play well despite some key absences so this doesn't become the unfortunate narrative of 2023.

Of course but nobody cared what Joewillie did as I wasn't a D1 athlete or a star on the football, basketball, or Lax team etc. I was just a nobody student.
BUT when your a star on a D1 team, you get put under a microscope and maybe unfairly judged differently than some average student.
I'm sure these young men regret every minute now what they did to be suspended, but in my opinion, we should let them have their time to themselves and probably with family and heal and learn moving forward. No need to put their names up in lights and have everyone judge them, as I know I would be in no position to judge anyone given some of my college deeds, and I would not want others judging me.
Sorry if this was a sort of sad sack post but it just took me back to my days as a young impressionable undergrad.

Indeed, thank goodness! Leaked iPhone footage of my "Private Senior Thesis Study Course" with Dean Wormer's wife might just have broken the internet.
