Clayborn to plead guilty
- Thread starter CIVILCY
- Start date
It never ceases to amaze me how the judicial process in Johnson County always occurs AFTER the football season has ended. Nobody cares about this stuff in February and we all will have forgotten by August.
Just win baby.

I thought that Ferentz said that he was innocent! Did Clayborne lie to him in order to play last year? Say it isn't so.
You're getting "Ferentz" mixed up with "Alford", and since I'm sure "he" is reference to Clayborne, you're getting him confused with Pierre Pierce.
If Kirk did say that, surely there would be a newpaper article or something else like that containing that quote.
If I remember correctly, Ferentz never said Clayborn was innocent. I'm pretty sure he said something along the lines of 'we'll wait and see how it plays out in court,' which is the only thing they could do at that point.
Chances are, there's some sort of plea bargain and he'll end up missing 1-2 games. Timing wise, getting this out of the way in March is the best thing for Clayborn and Iowa.
Just out of curiosity, what do you guys think a fair and adequate punishment for this would be?
After the ISU game, only fair
but seriously i think the punishment will only be about 1 game, 2 tops knowing Kirk and how he handles situations like this.

Do you seriously think that this warrants more than a 1 or 2 game suspension?
To be honest, I didn't expect any answer outta you. What, THH, do you see as an appropriate punishment for a guilty plea of assault?
It depends on how you define assault, I guess. We could be talking about slapping a cabbie in the face, or beating the crap out of someone. I really don't know what happened. As it is, this appears to be a simple misdemeanor, meaning Clayborne will pay a fine+court costs and be done with it. Regardless of how most of the people here feel, this isn't anything that anyone should or would spend a great deal of time in jail for.
Well, it looks he may have pleaded it down, so who knows?

Nobody knows what he has plead guilty to at this point but that doesn't seem to matter. Just as long as he misses at least 1/4 of the season, right?
