I've been itching to get online and weigh in with my opinion since my brother told me about this earlier in the afternoon.
As a Knights' fan I'm disappointed in the players' behaviour, even if all they're 'convincted' of is being drunk and disorderly after curfew. I don't think I'm exagerrating when I say we've all done dumb shit when we've been drunk. Done damage etc. However, if anyone did sexually assault or harass anyone at the University, then they deserve a swift punishment. I say
if because, as several others have already stressed, it's 'innocent until proven guilty' down here.
As a league fan, I'm impressed at how fast the response has been. The sacking of a player, despite some people's fears, would not have come over an allegation that hadn't warranted police investigation. I'd suspect the player either admitted to something, or was fingered by more sober and mature heads.
As for venturing a guess as to who it could be, I think Matt Kennedy may be a bit of a long shot. The guy is hardly a fringe first grader. He played virtually every game for us last season. I wouldn't be surprised if it were someone like Quigley, Tolar, or Lowrie- myself. Disappointing, regardless of who it is, but I'm relieved that none of our truly high profile players were involved.
And as a former Uni student. Dammit boys! We eat precious little as it is! Don't steal our food!
(Must say, I'm surprised at the low level of flames and troll posts in here. I was expecting an inundation)
