Sure, but would you really not hire the best candidate in your hiring pool if you found out that they did the above 15 years ago and have had a clean record since?

I wouldn't, because it goes directly to their character at fitness to practice law. As far as coaching. I never said he wasn't a good coach. He is a known cheater and liar, but there seems to be quite a few of them in the coaching industry.

Same with lawyers

[WhiteTrash]

That's actually a great analogy.  Driving without insurance should not result in a six month license suspension. A dumb rule that I wouldn't care if someone broke. It has no bearing on anyone's character.

I bet you'd care when you got a $20,000 bill to fix your car from an accident someone else caused who didn't have insurance or any assets. 

[lawdog77]

Agreed

I have insurance to cover such a situation. And no...I wouldn't care.

[lawdog77]

I call BS. You probably still have a deductible to cover, as well as possible medical bills/pain and suffering, as well as your insurance rates may go up.

Oh my.

[Shooter McGavin]

Ha! You guys both make good points and are both correct in your own ways.  It's ok to see the other persons point of view.  Jeez.

No! This is Scoop! Mustn't ever admit the other person might have a point!!!!

[lawdog77]

Ha! I guess if Sultan's point is that it is OK to break a law if you dont agree with it, I won't admit it. If the point is he paid his due, and Sampson is a heck of a coach, I would agree.

Better not jaywalk or drive 41 in a 40 mph zone.  Shows complete lack of character.

You clearly arent getting my point. it is not about the initial violation, its about being put on a ban, and doing what he did.

Better not speed after getting your first ticket. Shows complete lack of character.

yeah, you're not very good at this. He wasnt given a warning. He was banned from activites while his former school was punished.

You think I'm being serious? I think your analogy was silly, so I am responding with silliness.

Truth be told, I don't really care about your opinion on the matter.

Marquette off the hook for worst half of the week.

Dayton just scored 14 in the 1st half at the Battle for Atlantis on 6-30 shooting.

[GoldenEagles03]

Fun 1st half from Ohio State and Texas Tech.

Neither look to be a threat for any title, but two pretty solid teams.

[mileskishnish72]

I can't believe I'm pulling this hard for the Dayton Flyers.

[Uncle Rico]

Wisconsin-Marquette may end the sport

[Jockey]

My Lord! That was awful basketball.

And just to rub it in the fans' faces, there were 5 timeouts in the last 59 seconds.

[tower912]

And Dayton finds yet another way to disappoint the scoop faithful. 

[GoldenEagles03]

Badgers stay undefeated with a 43-42 win.

They are good at what they do. Yuck.  They face Kansas tomorrow.  Dayton gets NC State. Jarkel Joiner, who MU played last year with Ole Miss, is on that NC State team. Gave Kansas a decent run this afternoon.

Elsewhere, Ohio State is going to beat Texas Tech in Maui. A 2 loss tournament for the ranked Raiders.

That A-10 is underperforming this year
