Creighton ended up landing Ricky Kreklow and Cole Huff as transfers instead of Bubu.
Hate to say this, but if Bubu wants to play next year, it looks like he is going to have to enroll as a grad student and pay his own way as a walk-on. He was willing to go that route 5 years ago to have his shot at ISU. He even gave up DI soccer scholarship money, so maybe he should bite the bullet and go that route for 2014-15.

Hmmm. Weasel argument, but may override the day.

Iowa State lost in the latest court decision.

I guess those that kept saying Bub was not found innocent but rather just had charges dropped now can be at peace that he has been at a much lower threshold of preponderance of evidence:
"The court found Thursday that ISU’s complaint that Palo violated the university’s student code of conduct stemming from a May 2012 incident to be unfounded and that no sanctions shall be “assessed by ISU against†Palo.
They should he had to sit out a year and a half for something deemed unfounded.
More likely they will deny his waiver but "give him justice" by banning ISU from the post season this year and cutting ISU's schollies by 2 for the next ten years.
Quite a few do after rereading some of that thread. I still think he handled it very poorly.
This is a pretty big ruling in the sense that courts are not very excited to overrule administrative decisions such as this. It pretty much indicates that Leath just decided to do whatever the heck he wanted to do without regard to the evidence and the court called him on it.
It will almost certainly be appealed and that will be an interesting decision to read.

I'm guessing this is going to cost ISU a LOT of money, right?
Leath is the gift that keeps on giving.
I don't know enough to know if he is a good guy. I think he is a fairly good president. I think he made a huge mistake in the Bubu situation and I am glad that the court is calling Iowa State out on it. I would bet a lot of money that the reason Leath fought it was the focus by the federal government on sexual assaults on college campuses. Leath saw something that he felt was a sexual assault and overreacted. He deserves what he gets on this.
More to the story:
In its most recent decision, the court decided the evidence presented “does not support a finding that Mr. Palo violated the ISU disciplinary regulation prohibiting non consensual sexual activity by a preponderance of the evidence.â€

Can't wait to hear about the drug use, gang-banging, and passing in and out of consciousness first-hand.
