Hopefully he's able to move forward from this in a positive way.

The report says Bates stated there was marijuana and a handgun in the vehicle and an ensuing search of the vehicle uncovered a gun under the driver's seat. The serial number under the barrel of the gun had been removed, according to the report." He told them it was in there. Good for Emoni to be able to avoid serious trouble here. Hopefully it's the end of stories like this for him and he has his life in order.

Playing hoops for Eastern Michigan, has to be a BIG time influence on the court. Major programs are always getting favors! Maybe Bates even came up with a couple free tickets to the judge (if any are available).

I stick by my statements. Emoni wouldn't have been charged if his name was Kyle. It wasn't his vehicle or firearm.

Searching the threads for that prediction and timing. Unable to find a prediction amidst your many responses (maybe I just got lost picking through the acrimony of the posts and the sheer number of replies over in the other forum once it got moved) but here's one below from the day the news broke.If you know where it is I would be interesting in looking at what was said. Going over to the MAC forums as I am really curious as to what other MAC fans have and are saying. In any case, it will be fun to watch what kind of impact he has on the MAC and the EMU program and it's culture. bornacatfan wrote: Cellis033 wrote: M.D.W.S.T wrote: Cellis033 wrote: Jeez.
