Then doesn't that make bail 10x that amount? Me thinks that rivals does know the difference. The bond is typically 10% of what bail is set at. Correct?

Still a lot no matter.

I suspect we were just making room on the roster. This is a more clean way to deal with the problem in lieu of "medical hardships".

Folks think the terms are inter-changeable.

Anyway. They might want to get comfortable. $5110 is hard to come by.

Either way, some DIV 2 school is about to get a nice upgrade..............in a few years.

Police: 4 AU players arrested in connection with robbery

By: David Morrison
March 11, 2011 1:30 PM

Here's the Auburn Police Department statement. More on this as it becomes available:

On Friday, March 11, 2011, the Auburn Police Division arrested four people and charged each of them with five counts of Robbery 1st Degree, one count of Burglary 1st Degree, and one count of Theft of Property 3rd Degree. They are identified as Antonio M. Goodwin, age 20, Kowaski Q. Kitchens, age 19, Michael A. McNeil, age 22, and Harrison D. Mosley, age 19. All list an Auburn address. At approximately 12:25 a.m. this same date officers responded to a residence located in the 2300 block of Lee Road 137 (Wire Road) in reference to the report of a robbery that had just occurred. According to the five victims present, three black males entered the residence with one displaying a handgun. Personal property was stolen during the incident. No injuries were reported. A patrolman responding to the area observed what he believed to be the suspect vehicle based on a description he was given. Officers stopped the vehicle in the 1200 block of Wire Road and four suspects were taken into custody. A pistol and the stolen property was recovered at the scene. Goodwin, Kitchens, McNeil, and Mosley were transported to the Lee County Detention Center where each is currently being held on a $511,000 bond.

Here's head coach Gene Chizik's statement:

"The players arrested in connection with this deeply troubling incident have been permanently dismissed from our football team. While we realize the legal process will run its course and these young men have a right for their case to be heard, playing for Auburn University is an honor and a privilege. It is not a right."

â€œWe hold our student-athletes to a high standard of conduct on and off the field as representatives of Auburn University, and this kind of behavior is not tolerated."

â€œI am extremely disappointed and embarrassed by the actions of these individuals. I want to personally apologize to all of those who were impacted by this senseless act, including the victims, Auburn University and the Auburn family.â€

And a statement from athletic director Jay Jacobs:

â€œThis type of behavior will not be tolerated at Auburn. I fully support Coach Chizikâ€™s swift and decisive action to dismiss these four student-athletes from our football team effective immediately.â€

Chizik just dismissed the players from the team, playing at Auburn is a privilege.

Sports By Brooks is reporting that Mark Richt was seen at the Lee County Judicial Center and had offered all four players scholarships to uga.

Richt was quoted as saying: "This is the type of go-getters we like at uga. All four can enroll, go through spring training & start immediately next year."

The laws are medieval down here. Do you know what the minimum age for execution is in Alabama?

Don't get me wrong, there is NOTHING HERE to be proud of....

However...

The rest of college football could take a lesson in this decisive and quick action. This was swift and excellent move. Kudos for Chizik in making it very clear that AU Football has no use for this type of character.

What? No ice cream? At least suspend them for half a game.

Seriously though, this is BAAAAAAADDDDD stuff. Armed robbery is the worst. And they just randomly picked a house to rob? When the final story comes out, somebody got their feeling hurt and decided to retaliate. Well, joke backfired, it seems.

I had to sentence boys younger than them to the gas chamber. Didn't want to do it. Felt like I owed it to them.

We in the biz even use the terms bail and bond improproperly at time.

Robbery 1 means deadly weapon was used. These lads have bigger probs than where they may play football in the future. They goin' down the road.

These guys were starters/competing for starting jobs. They had EVERYTHING in front of them. I cannot FATHOM a level of stupidity this deep.

What a fuckup of monumental proportions.

I am horrified that these four obviously turned their backs on the efforts of our coaching staff to create men of good character. Fantastic job, Coach Chiz, for not even waiting five seconds before dismissing their sorry asses from the team. They should not even receive their BCSNC ring, as far as I am concerned.
