It's a shame.
EDIT: The link lists potential transfer options. I don't want to steal the whole article, so I'm not posting them here.

Yeah, because it's so lucky to lose a young blue chip recruit who was the most athletic kid in the state when he was in high school, and still has lots of potential to be a contributor (or better) in his upper classmen years. Real lucky.

Still is. Just sounds like a string of bad decisions if the rumors are true.

I, too, enjoy getting torched out of my skull.

Let this be a warning to you, kids - stay away from the Devil's Lettuce.
The uavoidable progression is: cigarettes, beer, weed, meth, rape, murder, genocide...
January 28th, 2016 at 4:39 PM ^
experimenting with weed 31 years ago. And now I rarely drink, but not to brag or anything, but I was a functioning alcoholic in my 20s and 30s.
Do I have to go back on the booze and get serious about weed before I can move on? Can I skip rape and murder (I find those both wrong/evil even if I would be stoned and drunk) and go straight to genocide?

Oh dear god I can't count the number of times I check mgoblog. Go pick up something from the printer or do something in the lab. Come back in 15 minutes. Check mgoblog. This site is always up in my browser both at work and home. I am an addict.
January 28th, 2016 at 5:07 PM ^
I can skip right to genocide?
January 28th, 2016 at 4:58 PM ^
What's interesting to me is that you find rape and murder to be wrong and evil, but are happy to skip over to genocide. Tap that moral compass, good sir! The needle's stuck.
(Yeah - I'm aware of my user name and the glass house that puts me in. Here's the thing. The view from a glass house is terrific!)
January 28th, 2016 at 5:11 PM ^
skipping over the others straight to genocide to see if anybody saw a dilemna in that. :-)
That and I was hoping to avoid getting stoned and drunk again.
January 28th, 2016 at 5:38 PM ^
Think of it as a bucket list. You've already covered cigarettes (likely), booze, and weed. So consider those boxes checked.
Ever taken a cold remedy? Based on the way that they lock that shizz up, that's practically doing meth. Check.
Next up is rape. Have you ever cut someone's hair? Rape of the lock. Check.
Next up is murder. Have you ever eaten meat? Meat is murder. (Ask Morrissey.) Check.
Next is genocide. Have you ever sung along to Panic in Detroit (live)*? Well, it's pretty well-known that that's not rock-and-roll. It's genocide. Check.
You're welcome.
*I think the lyric "this ain't rock and roll this is genocide" is technically in the song Future Legend. But my best recollection is Bowie yelling that right before breaking into Panic In Detroit.
January 28th, 2016 at 9:16 PM ^
"this ain't Rock n Roll, it's genocide" comes at the beginning of "Diamond Dogs", not "Panic in Detroit" which begins: "Looked a lot like Che Guevara, drove a diesel van". ;)
January 29th, 2016 at 10:21 AM ^
Future Legend is the opening track on that album, and contains the "this ain't rock and roll, this is genocide" lyric. But the next song is Diamond Dogs, so it forms a natural lead-in/segue to Diamond Dogs. Good catch.
As an aside, IIRC, the lyrics from Panic in Detroit were inspired by Bowie and Iggy strolling through Ann Arbor, and being amused by all the faux revolutionaries they saw on the street. Sort of a (to steal from Jello Biafra) "stab your back if you trash our halls, trash a bank if you've got real balls" sentiment that's lost on a huge percentage of fans of that song.*
*Similar to Born in the USA or This Land is Your Land, neither of which are about what most people think they're about.**
**I realize this is an old thread, and nobody will see this! But if you take time to politely correct me, I'll usually take time to acknowledge the effort.

Now I have to come up with a new bucket list!
January 28th, 2016 at 5:07 PM ^
A functioning alcholic than a malfunctioning alcoholic, I suppose.
January 28th, 2016 at 5:23 PM ^
Or a malfunctioning nonalcoholic. Then you're just a failure with no excuse.
January 28th, 2016 at 5:04 PM ^
you can't engage in genocide without committing a murder first, so sorry about your luck
January 28th, 2016 at 5:13 PM ^
commit all the murders simultaneously so that they are labeled as genocide.
I think I'll need WMDs for this.

Would have loved for him to be a part of the multi-year long redemption tour we are about to embark on.
Good luck to him, hope the grass is greener on the other side.

We need our best athletes to stay around and play good football for once. Yet another example of a highly touted guy not living up to expectation. This list is getting too long: Boubacar, Turner, Campbell, Grady, Mallett, C. Christian, and on and on and on and on.

There are a LOT of different reasons for those names on your list. Many are not like one another.

Tragic indeed. In 100 years, we will remember Darfur, Rwanda, Auschwitz, and Brian Cole all in the same light...
