Grant Perry reinstated

I think you hit the nail on the head here. Almost all of the posters that I saw who wanted him off the team were basing that off her interview/testimony. They were outraged because of how mentally affected she was.
Maybe that's the case, and things were as bad as she said, or maybe she's a die-hard Sparty fan trying to get him off a rival team. We don't know. But the kid went through the legal system and came out the other side. I personally think he should be allowed to play.

The part where he's not in jail?

Sure Perry isn't in jail, but he is still a convicted felon sentenced to 12 months of probation. Would it not make more sense to suspend him at least until his probation is over?

The University of Michigan football program is not in debt to any of its athletes. Michigan signed the top receiver class in the country and thus is not hurting for talent at the position. Even if they were it is still better to instill a lesson into a person who is found guilty of breaking the law rather than letting them off. Grant Perry has received no punishment following a guilty plea. He was not sent to jail and he gets to play football, how is this going to improve him?
I know the probation period is meant to be a deterant but I am not certain if it is the correct punishment. I hope the courts and Coach Harbaugh are right as they know more about Perry than I do. I would have liked to seen him suspended from play for a year to coincide with his probation period.

Florida is off the hook if they let Calloway play now.

I think Perry's crime was quite a bit more serious than LTT's. Im personally not going to be much of a Grant Perry fan anymore. I hope this is a situation that he learns from and comes out a better man. But Im rooting for someone else to be our guy in the slot this year.
I don't believe there is anything wrong with either being ok with this decision or being unsettled by it. People are going to feel how they feel and that is perfectly alright.

Dunno why so many people here are so willing to tell me what I would say if this was an OSU plyaer, or whatever. If you'd genuinely feel that differently about a kid who ran afoul of the law because of the team he plays for, then you just have to live with that. If you are claiming the moral high ground and saying that you wouldn;t do so, but the rest of us would, you are an ignorant ass.
In any case, stop trying to tell me what I would do in the case of some hypothetical you whip up.
And if you think Michigan is just like any other program in terms of discipline, well, that's your prerogative. I will laugh out loud if you tell me that this was the case that demonstrated that to you, though.

This should be a learning experience for all Michigan athletes. Stay the hell out of E. Lansing and probably Colunmbus.
