Just read some extremely unsettling allegations against this guy from when he was 16… google his name and deadspin if you’re curious. Pretty graphic :/
Yup, its incredibly unsettling...He's going to get grilled by local press on it
Already was, by Seifert...and it seemed awkward.
Really? Welcome to Minnesota tell me more about your alleged rapist tendencies? Couldn't that have waited? I know the allegations are disgusting, but why were the charges so late in coming and why were they dropped. I dont want to sound like I'm defending rapists here, but something here doesn't sound right, and for siefert to bring it up already is kinda in poor taste imo.
I am so not surprised by that. Sharks sense blood in the water, they go in for the kill. Charges get dropped all the time and it is not always because something didn't happen. This is a disappointment to say the least.
Thats a offensive to sharks every where. The sports media in mnpls usually reminds me more of some bottom feeder fish.

Many times the charges are dropped because the party is indeed innocent of the charges, and there is a presumption of innocence in our legal system.

Correct. Minors were involved so court sealed documents. We have no idea what actually happened so its unfair to say he has character issues. Was the pick itself a reach? Likely. Does he possess the characteristics needed to start? Yes. Love the fact that we have a boatload of guys competing for the LG, C, and RG positions

And that makes it an easy way to move on and act like nothing happened. Kind of a non prescription Ambien, helps you sleep at night.
Time will tell if he was the monster portrayed or a horny teenager or nothing at all.
The story will resurface if he was as shitty as the article made him out to be.

If he owns it when questioned by the media, it will be fine. Hopefully he has matured greatly. I like his upside, he can be a starter.
I think in this town with its history of having sex abuse and rape scandals in its sports scene you find a different player to draft. There were MANY players of equal value we could have picked there.

Correct me if im wrong. With charges dropped, couldn’t he be recharged with new evidence? I’m sure his lawyer told him exactly what to say when questioned.

So you discriminate against him in a town that was engulfed with racial riots even when he did nothing wrong?
