Don't understand that reasoning at all.
That senior was dismissed from the program immediately upon the accusations. So the program didn't embrace his continued involvement as a player with serious criminal allegations against him. Not exactly a great ringing reason to bring in somebody who has some criminal issues (if you think these are serious) and embrace him being a part of the team. It totally might be o.k. to bring him in -- but the fact that Mo was accused and charged with a serious crime doesn't suddenly mean that we should "take" anybody with any kind of criminal history or problems.
+1.
I'm not stating we should or shouldn't take Deontae, but saying "we still have Mo around" (when we actually don't) isn't the best justification for whatever choice is made. I'm sorry, but that line of thinking doesn't even make much sense, IMO. Is the suggestion here that because Mo hasn't been totally blackballed, CU now has an open door policy for all players? I would disagree with that suggestion.
