Well if you believe the blogosphere and it was connected with drugs - 
I am sure that when there was a first violation that some parameters 
were laid out, and that those steps didn't get followed.  I pretty 
much figure that would be the general procedure no matter what 
behavioral problem was cropping up.  I know Bo said on something I 
saw that he felt his main job was to get the players ready for their 
future lives.  Seems to me that if this is his philosophy that unless 
it is something the law needs to be involved in that he and others 
would take the time to counsel the player and lay out a program that 
was designed to help that player with what ever problem they had. 
Pretty much puts the kid on notice - we know what you are up to - we 
don't like it - we are willing to help you change for the better. 
After that seems to me that the kid has to step up and get with the 
program.  They are 18-22 years old and need to start dealing with the 
world like an adult and be willing to take their lumps if they can't 
manage that.

The secret immature part of me wants to know all the juicy gossip but 
honestly - unless something affects the public safety, is a NCAA rule 
violation that could get the program in trouble, or something that 
ends up on a public record - I don't really need to know some 21 year 
old kids business.  I got plenty of things to deal with on my own 
thank you.
