No, I really do not think his name would have gotten out. How would it? Even if the media got his name, they would not have reported it without a quote or at least the kid's consent. It's not journalistically "news worthy" or ethical to just report, "hey everybody this is the name of the kid who called BDJ in."

Not sure if this has been posted earlier (didn't go through all 109 pages), but here's a perspective from UNLV fans who have known BJ longer than we have.

Not really, seems pretty justified. They suspended their best player in the biggest rivalry game because of noise violations.
I don't think it works like that at apartments. I believe it is at the edge of the public areas aka at the door. At least thats how they seemed to explain it. Otherwise that basically makes it unenforceable at apartments because there are multiple people contributing to the noise.
My point is that if Bryce and his roommates had showed his neighbors a little bit of respect and a little bit of decency for the past 4 months, the neighbor wouldn't have called the cops last night.
If there had been no history of noise or vandalism from that apartment and last night's incident happened, I'd agree that the neighbor was overly sensitive and out of line.
Also, if the cops hadn't been to the same apartment over and over again, they probably would have stopped by last night, told them to quite things down and went on their way. The fact that they'd been there multiple times might have driven them to the point where they decided they needed to be strick enforcing the law.
Marty validates every disparaging remark that's ever been said about him. He's truly the one person mentioned in this thread who has earned the moniker *********...down to his greasy hair and pretentious scarf...
That's terrible, you know Fred, and probably others there, just wanted to chew his ***. Just so unprofessional. I hope somebody pulls his media credentials, if that's possible.
Goes both ways. This kid needs to be respectful too. I see a lot of people blaming only BDJ when there are obviously multiple people partially at fault.
He got suspended for continuous disrespect to his neighbors, coaches, & teammates. It's not just as simple as a noise violation.
You just can't get past the whole noise violation thing can you? I know you know the situation, so why can't you realize that Fred's talked to him before about his behavior, he didn't stop, so Fred was forced to do something about it.
Are you calling out Fred for making a bad decision, when he knows way more about the situation than you?
If it walks like a duck, talks like at duck, its a duck, point being this guy has a history of anger, and being an all around problem.
Fred has been able to turn most of these guys on the right path, this guy will be his biggest challenge.
and if Fred doesn't put his foot down after BDJ didn't respect what Fred asked of his behavior, it's like the parent who constantly says "don't do that or I'll put you in a timeout" and then never does.
How is that man even allowed a media pass? If he asked me that kind of ******** in an interview I would tell him to leave and not to let the door hit him on the way out.
So if you've had trouble with noise and other things from your neighbors for 4 months, tried to resolve things without the police. Tried to resolve things with the police. Tried to get his coaches involved so things could be sorted out without and arrest.
If you done all that, calling in a noise complaint at 3 AM on a Thursday morning is disrespectful? You've got to be freaking kidding me. If this was the first noise problem, then sure, calling the cops would be disrepectful without at least talking to your neighbors directly first. However, there is nothing disrespectful in calling the cops if talking to your neighbors directly hasn't worked out.
I would never question Hoiball, its a disappointing decision that he had to make to save face because all of the media outlash. Its same kind of thing that gets Adrian peterson a 10+ game suspension for committing a misdemeanor.
What, or who exactly was the "kid" (neighbor) disrespectful towards? What, he was supposed to show BDJ more respect because he is a star athlete or something? There are multiple people involved.....all of them in BDJ's apartment.
According to the story.........BDJ made an agreement with Fred, the neighbor and the police. He broke that agreement, obviously putting Fred (and his team and ISU) in a bad spot. Fred had no choice but to do what he did. Hopefully BDJ will learn his lesson and keep his nose clean the rest of the season. If not, and he continues to act like an idiot.....then I'm guessing he will be gone. I don't think Fred will put up with much nonsense....just a hunch.
