Thousands of students, over 100 football players, all between 18-22, many away from home for the first time, sowing wild oats, as it were. and we have 3 incidents, 1 involving the football team. And if you know anything about Coach Akey, you'll know that he will deal with this firmly. When he first arrived, one of his first acts was to kick 17 players off the team immediately that were from there from previous coaching staffs because of their off the field demeanor. He did this knowing that it would have an extremely negative impact on on the field success, but he felt it had to done. This young man will be punished, rest assured. <span class="Apple-converted-space"> </span><br><br><hr id="stopSpelling">CC:<span class="Apple-converted-space"> </span><a href="mailto:vision2020@moscow.com">vision2020@moscow.com</a><br>From:<span class="Apple-converted-space"> </span><a href="mailto:bear@moscow.com">bear@moscow.com</a><br>To:<span class="Apple-converted-space"> </span><a href="mailto:idahovandal1@live.com">idahovandal1@live.com</a><br>Subject: Re: [Vision2020] Vandal PRIDE *S*<br>Date: Mon, 5 Oct 2009 16:15:51 -0700<br><br>Carl,<div><br></div><div>I agree with you about doing away with football, fraternities and sororities, short of that, how about STRICT sanctions?</div><div><br></div><div>Currently 2 kids are in the "U of I Wing" of Harbor View Medical center having fallen out of windows!

But to be honest, if you read sites like ESPN on a daily basis, as I do, you'll know that these things happen everywhere. Every university, every football program, no exceptions. It recently happened to a Boise State player, it's happened 8 miles away at WSU, it's happened at the University of Washington, and the list goes on. There are over 100 players on a Division 1 football team, between the ages of 18-22, and the coaching staff can't watch over them 24/7. Perhaps we should eliminate football. Perhaps we should eliminate fraternities and sororities because of recent incidents.<br><br><hr id="ecxstopSpelling">From:<span class="ecxApple-converted-space"> </span><a href="mailto:bear@moscow.com">bear@moscow.com</a><br>To:<span class="ecxApple-converted-space"> </span><a href="mailto:vision2020@moscow.com">vision2020@moscow.com</a><br>Date: Mon, 5 Oct 2009 15:36:55 -0700<br>Subject: [Vision2020] Vandal PRIDE *S*<br><br><br><div><div><div style="margin-right: 0in; margin-bottom: 0.0001pt; margin-left: 0in; font-size: 11pt; font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; "><b><span style="font-size: 24pt; font-family: 'Times New Roman', serif; ">Breaking News</span></b></div><div style="margin-right: 0in; margin-bottom: 0.0001pt; margin-left: 0in; font-size: 11pt; font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; "><b><span style="font-size: 18pt; font-family: 'Times New Roman', serif; ">UI football player faces DUI charge</span></b></div><div style="margin-right: 0in; margin-bottom: 0.0001pt; margin-left: 0in; font-size: 11pt; font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; "><span style="font-size: 12pt; font-family: 'Times New Roman', serif; ">October 5, 2009, 2:30 pm</span></div><div style="margin-right: 0in; margin-bottom: 0.0001pt; margin-left: 0in; font-size: 11pt; font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; "><span style="font-size: 12pt; font-family: 'Times New Roman', serif; "><img id="ecxecxPicture_x0020_2" alt="http://www.lmtribune.com/adserver/www/delivery/lg.php?bannerid=499&campaignid=302&zoneid=85&loc=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.dnews.com%2Fbreaking-news%2F1317%2F&referer=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.dnews.com%2F&cb=afe8c23100" src="http://gfx1.hotmail.com/mail/w4/pr01/ltr/i_safe.gif" width="1" height="1"></span><span style="font-size: 12pt; font-family: 'Times New Roman', serif; "></span></div><div style="margin-right: 0in; margin-bottom: 0.0001pt; margin-left: 0in; font-size: 11pt; font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; "><span style="font-size: 12pt; font-family: 'Times New Roman', serif; ">A University of Idaho football player was arrested early Sunday morning for allegedly driving under the influence of alcohol and was also cited for urinating in public.<br><br>Moscow Assistant Police Chief David Duke said an officer observed freshman tight end Clayton Homme, 18, of Kennewick urinating while waiting in the drive-through line at Jack in the Box shortly before 3 a.m. Sunday.<br><br>The officer then observed Homme get back behind the wheel of the vehicle which eventually led to Homme’s arrest for the DUI.<br><br>Homme pleaded not guilty at his arraignment at the Latah County Courthouse on Monday and a pretrial hearing is set Oct. 13 at 2:30 p.m.<br><br>The arrest came after the Vandals’ 31-29 win over Colorado State University on Saturday evening.</span></div></div></div><br><hr>Your E-mail and More On-the-Go.
