Remember That Tech Recruit Who Got Kicked Out Of School Before He Started . . .



. . . for slugging the school's best female basketball player? Well, they've released the video. I'm not saying it's earthshaking, but he definitely popped her really hard.

In related news, a grand jury declined  to indict him on a felony.  First, I'm not sure why it went to the grand jury because it looked like a misdemeanor assault. (Unless it caused some type of permanent disfigurement or impairment, then they could get it to the felony level.)  Likely, she doesn't want to pursue it and wants the whole issue to go away. The kid didn't walk away scot free because he has suffered  the consequences of losing a full ride to Tech. The prosecutors probably thought that was a decent disposition but had the grand jury "make" the decision for political cover.

Edit: Welp, had that wrong. He was reinstated late this afternoon.
