I support systemic racism
Yep. So how is this not that big a deal (driving drunk), but Toupo hitting a guy and not getting charged is a HUGE deal? I'm glad Frazier didn't get suspended for longer, but this is what the punishment for Toupo should have been. Or maybe one game.
Separate issue. Fraizer's issue was dealt with by the Boulder DA and then the football coach. Tupou was dealt with by the Boulder DA then the CU Honor Council. Tupou was suspended by the Honor Council, not by HCMM.
Toupo was punished by the student disciplinary committee (or whatever is called) because it had to do with a fight with fraternity students. This was different as it was not related to other students, university conduct etc. The AD is who handled the Frazier punishment.
fify. Let's be careful using the word Honor, okay?

"When you work with 17-to-22-year-old men, when you get them as freshmen, you take them and hold them, and you have a very short leash," MacIntyre said. "As they show you they can handle things, you let that leash out longer. George is one that had a huge, long leash because he was a model student-athlete. This situation really shocked all of us.
"He doesn't have a leash anymore; I have him right by the hair. If he has another incident, there will be a lot worse punishment, but I think that at this point, he's learned his lesson."

What's crazy is that George pled guilty, Tupou wasn't even tried...
Huge. Frazier is a mismatch for Hawaii.
You cannot legally own pets in Boulder, you can only be their caretakers. Besides, pets are more important than people in Boulder.
this is how a program should be run.
Nice to see we are finally leveling the playing field

There sure is a lot of smug in this thread.

Truf. Moral superiority was always good for 3-4 points per game. Sucks that we will have to give that up.
Just think how pissed you'd be if he'd only been suspended for 1 quarter!

15 minutes of game time. That's ridiculous. Kid gets drives under the influence and is told he can't play for roughly, what, 8-15 snaps?! Well, if we are trying to emulate SEC schools, this "punishment" sure fits their culture.
He is getting punished by the law. You are mixing cu with the court system.
What other job suspends you if you get a dui?
You do realize you have a beer as your avatar, right? Right?
Based solely on what I read on here and on Rivals, AND billing a total homer who would crucify the program if this had been a Nub, I believe Frazier wasn't driving at all. He was sleeping in the car. DWAI means he had a beer or two at most. Model citizen, didn't endanger anyone: punishment fits the crime.
