Apparently, some action for the Code of Conduct issue. That's all things are about now.

So the actions that a judge didnt feel were any sort of violation of that CoC? And even then, any alleged violations of that CoC would be based on the testimony of that same proven liar.
More kindling for the Bubu dumpster fire...
This was referenced towards the end of the 39 page (and going) other thread about Bubu, but since I came across this on ESPN.com I thought I would share it here.
Not really much of an article, just a quick blurb.
As if the plot needed any more thickening....

Apparently they are.
Nobody will be convinced by any discussion here. I have no idea what other wild answer you're hoping for on this.
We're sitting here with an entirely preventable pile of stupid, from the first night until now. It won't get any better with people's hysterics on here.
True. Even if he gets the waiver, which is a big if when dealing with the NCAA, his chances of landing somewhere starting in September would be very slim. No reason the decision couldn't have been made months earlier by Leath since he was working off the same info the ALJ had. The parties and witnesses were not interviewed by Leath, so why the big delay? I know BuBu said he would have tried to transfer somewhere else, but good luck in getting somebody to take him after his name was drug thru the mud and he'd been kicked off the team by the ISU president.
Um, wouldn't his attorney Boles know? ISU is hitting them right between the eyes. This is major part of contention in this matter, isn't it? Either Boles and Bubu are lying, or they're idiots.
"Attorneys for Palo contended that a delayed ruling from Leath came five days too late for the player to be eligible for a transfer to another program. Palo, a senior who would only be eligible for the remainder of this season, agreed.'If they would have moved promptly and said we don’t want you, I would have understood,'Palo told the Register. 'I would have gone on my way. With the timing of the decision, I didn’t have a choice.'"

This. It's crazy how many pro-bubu people can't grasp this.
There have been blunders on both sides of the fence during this, but you know what, had Bubu not committed any of those actions on that night that put his innocence or guilt into question, we wouldn't have this mess.
It all just needs to go away FFS.
His actions of being a college student? 99.8% of athletes have one night stands. Sports wouldn't be fun if you held all the good players to the ones you're holding Bubu. Innocent until proven guilty, and he isn't guilty.
You've heard Leath's side of this, we haven't heard the other side, and I'm guessing it won't take too much effort to prove that Leath should have made his decision much earlier to give Bubu any reaslistic chance of landing on another team. It seems Boles is keeping things close to the vest while ISU officials are making public statements. Time will tell if this attempt at damage control works for or against them in court. However this is only one of many questions about Leath's handling of this that will have to be answered.
Well I can't name the position he is in, though he's not low on the totem pole. Like I said, me and my friend argued why is he still on the team if he's right? When we tried pressing him he didn't budge, just said the university knows Bubu committed a crime. The 100% thing was a quote more than anything. I wish I was joking around but I'm not. The fact of the matter is this thing is taking way too long to decide.

Correct me if I'm wrong, but it was after classes started right? Just like McKay? So either he sits out a year effectively ending his career... Or transfers to a small school to only play last semester?
I'd stick at Iowa State too, knowing there was no reason to be kicked off and that was the school you loved. Not to mention those teammates are like family.

Eligible is really stretching the truth. They would have supported a waiver for him to transfer. First off the likelihood that the NCAA approves it is low but who knows. If he would have gotten the waiver and that is about as big of an if as you can get wouldn't the school he is transferring to have to have not started also? That narrows an already narrow list of schools that would take him.
If you look at this more than Iowa State trying to cover their *** then you will never change your mind no matter what the evidence.
At this point there is no way we will know exactly what happened because there have been to many BS stories thrown out there.
Have you read the release this evening? You can't be that daft, please say you aren't.
Boles and Palo have some more explaining to do.
Re: More kindling for the Bubu dumpster fire...
Mckays was after practice started. Start of classes doesn't matter. Start of practice does, if I understand correctly

URGENT! PLEASE HAVE THESE "STAFF MEMBERS", WHO "ARE 100% SURE HE DID SOMETHING", CONTACT THE STORY COUNTY ATTORNEY'S OFFICE ASAP SO THEY CAN FILE CRIMINAL CHARGES AND THIS WHOLE FIASCO WILL FINALLY BE PUT TO BED. Way to Go IHavNoCyCash!!
I guess you can count me in as one of the "pro Bubu people" but with that being written I can also state that there were a lot of poor decisions made all-around that night by everyone involved, Bubu included.
With that being written, he's paid a HELL of a lot bigger price than anyone else involved in this mess, including the other guy who got into trouble (whose name I don't even remember at the moment).
It's not like he's gotten away scott-free with anything here. I don't think he's necessarily a victim in the strictest sense of the word and isn't a "hero" or anything silly like that, but I would never want to go through what he's gone through this last year and a half.
