Mustain Update

| | Comments (8) |

For what it's worth, two sources offered the same answer when asked whether Arkansas quarterback Mitch Mustain would transfer to USC after he arrived Wednesday.
``It looks like he is,'' they both said, unaware of the other's answer.

I will welcome Mitch to USC and know that he will be a great addition to the Trojans.

He is an awesome quarterback without the troubled baggage and criminal background of Sanchez.

We need more kids like Mustain representing us.

That's fabulous news! There is nothing but upside to Mustain transferring to SC. I am sure he will start once Booty is gone, with Corp serving as his second string.

Mustain and Corp will be an outstanding duo, possibly the best in all of college football.

Bright days are ahead for Trojan football.

Sanchez got cleared. Is that your stupid interpretation of criminal background you damn idiot? Are you pushing Mustain because you don't like Latin players you damn redneck?

El Capitain - you honestly need to calm down and stop turning this into a racial issue, which no one but you has done.

I did not want to get involved in this, but since you keep bringing it up, I will add some legal expertise on this situation.

The DA's office did not state that Sanchez was innocent. The exact wording that was used was Sanchez would not be charged due to a "lack of sufficient evidence beyond a reasonable doubt" on the issue of force and, subsequently, making the case "essentially a 'one-on-one' allegation." Yet the DA's office verified what the alleged victim had claimed that Sanchez had committed against her. The DA's office never actually stated that Sanchez was innocent and their wording verified that, by stating that it would come down to needing "sufficient evidence beyond a reasonable doubt" as opposed to the evidence that they had verified. It's a matter of whether a jury can be presented with sufficient evidence, as opposed to enough evidence.

Whether he was innocent or guilty, the fact remains that the aura of rape will follow him around for the rest of his life. I am not casting judgment, positive or negative, on him, but stating reality. No matter what he does for the rest of his life, the act of rape, and being arrested and having gone to jail for it. will follow him around. That is indisputable.

Again, you need to stop the race baiting, because you are the only person bringing up the fact that this is somehow a Latino versus Caucasian issue. By constantly bringing up the issue of race, you take away from your own credibility and lose any supporters you may have. Once people bring race into an argument, then they are grasping at straws and then are marginalized, while no longer being taken seriously.

just an FYI........Sanchez was not prosecuted because the alleged "victim" was a consenting adult who did not file the complaint herself......it appears that allegedly that mom didnt like her little girl coming home at sunrise after being with a Footballer....so she filed the complaint which turned into an arrest and so on.......
Girlie did not want to pursue this because she knew she was there voluntarily ...so the DA did not have enough to go on.. rape ??? consenting sex (sorry mom) ??? no conviction= innocent....so lets let that lie now
Sanchez has no previous record and no violent past..
lets move on now
