See ya, Shannon Brooks
Currently being held without bail. Looks like he did his best Zeke Elliott impersonation and beat up his girlfriend. Allegedly.

Re: See ya, Shannon Brooks
PP is reporting it was a male roommate. Apparently that qualifies as domestic assault.

Well..... that changes things a bit, at least for me.
Good reason why you wait to gather facts, I suppose.

Too bad it wasn't Anthrax. I'm sick of watching that kid throw the ball.

I betcha the team dismisses him regardless.
No fucking way they're wanna get into a shit storm if domestic assault against a man gets lighter sentence than domestic assault against a woman (which would be automatic removal of team if guilty)

It would be nice if people waited for more than 30 seconds before passing judgement. I guess it's not now the world works these days.

Re: See ya, Shannon Brooks
Sorry but if you punch a gal versus punch a guy, they are completely different things. If he beats the crap out of either one, that's a different issue of course. Waiting to see what else happens here... I saw a lot of fights in college, never once were cops involved and some kids got LIT up.DC4MVP wrote: ↑Mon Oct 15, 2018 12:19 amI betcha the team dismisses him regardless.

I got into a fight with my roommate, guy was a total douche. It happens. Granted I wan't a running back at a major D-1 school. With that comes added responsibility. What is annoying is when people jump to conclusions with out any facts.

Re: See ya, Shannon Brooks
Sure. Absolutely one is worse than the other but I'm here imaging that he tuned him up pretty well if he got charged with Domestic Abuse and the roommate didn't, then it must have been a one-sided altercation especially if the roommate pressed charges. If Brooks is some huge muscle bound D-1 running back and the other one is just an average sized dude, it may be hard for that guy to defend himself.HeHateMe wrote: ↑Mon Oct 15, 2018 9:37 amSorry but if you punch a gal versus punch a guy, they are completely different things.

Simple college fights don't usually turn into domestic abuse which has a more ominous definition and leans towards the altercation being one sided.
Who knows.....it just seems odd that if it were a fight, it went down as domestic abuse....not assault.

Some guy over at GH claiming to be the roommate (seems legit), shedding more light onto this old story. Some death threats, history of getting kicked out of previous places, routine weekend partying and drugs. Said nothing ever came of this incident because the only witnesses were football players, and that he tried to reach out to PJ, but PJ never accepted.

Re: See ya, Shannon Brooks
The thread of the supposed roommate has gone on all day, and I'm fairly certain the guy really is the roommate.
Very detailed explanation of what happened. His posts go all the way through page 8 (so far). in the first page or 2, he takes a shot at PJ, then explains why he is not a believer of PJ's culture when pressed about it (that's when he shares he was the roommate). THen people start asking him questions, and he goes into good detail of the events. Its like a tell all story. If the guy is real, and I believe he is, I have no idea how any local media hasnt jumped all over his story. He clearly wants to get everything off his chest.
http://www.forums.gopherhole.com/boards ... am-anymore
Even though I believe he is who he says, I'm not going to form opinions on SHannon (or PJ) at all, for the fact that he is still just a faceless guy behind a keyboard, who could be making it up, as well as its just one side of the story.

I like PJ and believe in the hire. The whole "Elite Culture" though... ha
He's a cars salesman. I can form a opinion on PJ. He's a dirt ball. All these "Preach almighty" figures are always loons. From priests to coaches. Sad thing is though, you need these types to win.
PJ is going to bring this program back imo. Do I think he's a saint? Nope. Do I think he's what we need to win? Yep.
I was on the old Western Michigan forums. Some things said about him, ex wife etc. Is unsettling.
Who knows if it's true. The guy is a head case though. Don't care. Just win baby!

Re: See ya, Shannon Brooks
I believe in PJs ability to build a program, and also believe he's a good guy. If this GH guy's story ever was verified, I still don't see how it can diminish PJ's character too much. We don't know how Shannon may have been punished internally, and also, there's nothing wrong with a coach giving a guy a second chance. He pulled Winfield and Seth Green back in after the fiasco they were allegedly involved in during the Claey's regime. I think this Jane kid is the first to be kicked off the team by PJ, and well, he punched a cop, so there wasnt really any other option. Had he not punched the cop, and just was a drunken idiot, I believe he would have been given a second chance like the other guys mentioned before, as well as your boy Demry (who left the team on his own).Sergeant Rubetube wrote: ↑Sat Feb 16, 2019 10:34 pmGreat work, Bubu.

Gopherhole is notorious for being full of crackpots and I would be very leery of believing anything coming from there. That is not to say outright you can't trust anything, but I'll believe it when I see it.
