TheKiD Posted August 4, 2008 Share Posted August 4, 2008 I was just going to reply that this removal was probably for recreational drugs, and also comparing it to alcohol/DUIs. I bet the thinking is that pot is illegal for EVERYBODY - and that there might be the possibility of getting into dealing, etc. That's bad press. Of course, (possible) motor vehicle homicide under the influence ain't so good either. err... driving under the influence is illegal for everybody as well. and pot is NOT illegal for everybody, in some states there are medical marijuana prescriptions. lame argument, all i'm saying Quote Link to comment
Huskerballz Posted August 4, 2008 Share Posted August 4, 2008 Wow, one of our better DT backups gone. This definitey hurts the depth. Quote Link to comment
Axl_sued_me Posted August 4, 2008 Share Posted August 4, 2008 How is Andy Christiansen still on the team and Dixon's kicked off? Quote Link to comment
Huskerballz Posted August 4, 2008 Share Posted August 4, 2008 How is Andy Christiansen still on the team and Dixon's kicked off? That's a good question, but I highly doubt Christansen will remain on the team. If he does though, I'll be the first one down to Lincoln picketing abount unfair treatment towards Dixon.

Andy is probably screwed regardless Bo is just waiting for everything to unfold. Bo probably told the team that he has a zero tolerance rule on drugs and everything else that may happen is on a case by case basis. I'll bet Bo didn't expect one of his lineman to reach up a girls skirt and stick his fingers in her though. If Andy goes to trial there is a good chance he is going to be found guilty. If he takes a plea bargain then he is basically saying he is guilty as well so.............. Quote Link to comment

I'm just saying that if he isn't kicked off the team, then I'll be out there protesting. I highly doubt it will come to that though. Quote Link to comment
MUTigerFan Posted August 4, 2008 Share Posted August 4, 2008 Wow, one of our better DT backups gone. This definitey hurts the depth. He was #2 at both DT and nose T. Any injury and he would have been a started. Big loss. Quote Link to comment
NU fan in Denver Posted August 4, 2008 Share Posted August 4, 2008 Maybe Dixon has screwed up one too many times and was given his last chance. Still, I don't like the fact that he may have been kicked off the team for a citation that he isn't yet guilty of. This is pure speculation as to why he was removed, maybe he didn't fulfill his team punishment, who knows. What happened to innocent until proven guilty. Suspend him indefinately, then if he is found guilty, dismiss him. Quote Link to comment
Cy the Cyclone Posted August 4, 2008 Share Posted August 4, 2008 There is a place for Dixon AND Christianson in Iowa City. Please have both players contact the Iowa Hawkeyes Athletic Department at your earliest possible convenience Regards Kirk Ferentz Head Parole Officer Quote Link to comment

HuskerTrucker Posted August 4, 2008 Share Posted August 4, 2008 All part of installing his coaching staff's principles and standards. We need kids that want to be here at Nebraska doing the right things. I support Bo when it comes to discipline. If a player is not disciplined off the field, he probably won't be on the field either. I know they take the players privacy seriously, but it would be interesting to know what exactly got him kicked to the curb. Quote Link to comment
zoogs Posted August 4, 2008 Share Posted August 4, 2008 Hehe....mentioned so many times but misspelled so many times, it's Andy Christensen...but I can't wait to hear the resolution to that case. Quote Link to comment
HSKRNOKC Posted August 4, 2008 Share Posted August 4, 2008 This hurts very very badly for our depth chart . A team weakness just got weaker. Quote Link to comment
Drowning_in_the_Sea_of_Red Posted August 4, 2008 Share Posted August 4, 2008 Wow. Fall camp could've gotten off to a better start... Bummer. Quote Link to comment
Touchdown Tommie Posted August 4, 2008 Share Posted August 4, 2008 There has to be more to this story....Christensen is being charged with a sexual assault and Dixon has some pot on him. If Dixon is gone, Andy better be gone! Quote Link to comment
