Also someone on the gowyogo board said that they arrested him at the Laramie airport? Any truth to that?
If you ever need to laugh, just remember there was some idiot who wanted Bohl fired after 2 seasons.

I would think Shyatt might have something in place after this situation because only bad can come from players hanging out in those types of places.

Of course maybe he had something in place already but it seems if he would have then Luke would have been suspended before.
That is wishful thinking but that is never going to happen.
You would never get players to stay 3 or 4 years here if they can not go out to the bar. They are 21 year olds and college kids. Just because they play college hoops wearing a UW jersey doesn't mean that they have to live a sheltered life.
I'm sure they want to be winning just as bad as we want them to
Wishful thinking? I disagree. It is for only during the season. That means between November to March no bars. They don't need to be going out during that time anyways because they are concentrating on basketball. Other programs have these rules. I know Laramie isn't the greatest place with lots of things to do but it comes down to do you want to play basketball or not? It isn't a sheltered life because you don't get to go to the bar either.

I would agree with this.

When I am at work, getting paid, I can't do things I can do it home. In college sports, you are on the clock as a player and ambassador for the school from season start to season end. (year round if you ask me, but that is beside the point). The least they can do is keep their nose clean for a few months. Wishful thinking? of course, but this kind of bull#### is getting old. I am donating money out of state to this University athletic program. For crying out loud, I just did my will and if I die, the Cowboy Joe Club and Athletic Dept is getting a decent chunk. A lot of us are invested emotionally and FINANCIALLY into this program. Stay out of the ####ing bars!

one more thing---

If this turns out to be some @sswipe just getting Luke in trouble and pushing charges...then I still side with Luke. I dont agree with his behavior, but if this is a setup to get him in some trouble, then I will 100% side with Luke. Innocent until proven guilty. (but that doesnt mean i cant still be pissed off)...

I'm guessing that this is one of them deals where no charges would have been filed if Luke wasn't on the basketball team.

Really? You're going to put that out there, and leave everyone hanging?
Sorry. Hopefully Gags (etal) can pick it up and report it.

"An affidavit of probable cause, which will provide more information about Martinez's involvement in the Buckhorn fight, will also become public record on Tuesday."

You are probably right. Probably a closet-drinking BYU guy.

I know some of your comment is TIC, but the reality is that felony charges aren't typically filed unless there is some substantial evidence and justification. Because felony charges were filed, I think this has nothing to do with athlete v. non-athlete and charges would have been filed regardless.

If only misdemeanor simple assault charges were filed, then my opinion may be different.

Although, we will all have a better idea tomorrow when details are released.

Two things:
1st as a wyoming fan... I know i don't file charges if i am the one that got hit.

2nd Luke is an idiot why in the world would you go and get in a fight. It is one thing to go out and get drunk and be at the bars but come on. Use some damn sense!

Bingo. Felony charges being filed, indicates everything is out of the hands of the victims, whether they want or not.

A few things I have heard....

I heard he used a tire iron to jam in the tires of a motorized cart and then used a Cousin Eddie Moose Mug to smash the 79 year old lady in the melon, then he started to go around the parking lot roundhouse kicking people in the jaw like Patrick Swayze on Roadhouse.

I am soooo disappointed by this whole issue, whom we thought was a team leader and trustworthy is slowly going south, maybe it's for the best that we sever ties with this troublemaker. Man oh man what a loss to such a promising player and a team leader, time for the rest of the team to step it up and let's see what we have with players that wanna be a part of something special. aaargh so disappointing
