I'm hoping there's no slush fund associated with the athletic program.
But if there is a slush fund then there's no better use of funds

Do you still sit him? Does Fred want players to have 5 police calls to their place? Up at 3:30am on a Wednesday night?
I wouldn't be surprised if he doesn't play and I'm OK with that.

We're all still holding out for a possible Woodbury vs Tsalmpouris battle in the starting lineup.
No, you don't. If he has no charges how can you do anything to him? Fred is better than that. Besides, he has to spend a few hours in Iowa City tomorrow night, that's almost like jail.
1) Aren't the noise issues still in play?
2) Fred isn't handcuffed by the legalities of the situation. 5 calls to BDJ's apartment. Staff has already been involved to smooth things over. Coach may simply punish him for enough being enough. Not saying he will or should. But it's certainly not out of the question because the court didn't go forward.
I would personally still suspend him if the reports are true that he had plenty of chances with the noise complaints... give him a suspension for not respecting authority and being stupid. With the way ISU recruits transfers (some of which are on their 2nd or 3rd change), i don't think we want to start a precedent that it's ok as long as you are not charged with anything. Just my 2 cents.
I would be surprised if he plays the next couple games. This has to be some kind of a violation of team rules. Fred will not take his cues for how to handle this from the school to the east.
I think BDJ would have a shorter leash if he wasn't a graduate transfer. I don't think any suspension would be fair or appropriate but if Fred were to not play him, that couldn't be argued with.
Who's talking about charges now. It is about the dreaded "team rules". Wouldn't shock me if those have been violated one way or another.
With the drug charges dropped I think the only punishment I'd give him is having him start the game on the bench and reducing his minutes for the next few games. It seems kinda weak to suspend him for a noise charge.
