What a year for the Ducks.

Expected this. Kids on campus who always hear things…arrest warrants were issued for both Hampton and Jamari the night this all happened.

There were 9 players involved. What is trouble some is when this story broke Hampton called it all lies. They have the videos and now will trying to evade the police

come into play.

This story is not over.

Looks like Roscoe finally got them Duck boys.

I hope that recruiting analysis techniques emerge to measure 'knuckleheadedness'

18 year old millionaires, what could go wrong? I hope the prosecutor goes the "fullest extent of the law" route on this. And anyone else involved at any level should be dismissed from the team immediately.

Daisy Duck seems to have eluded Boss Hog. Can she catch a football?

The fun just never stops with this team...

They can’t even get arrested right. Georgia at least waits until the offseason.

I had big hopes for Hampton, but he is probably done.

I have to agree. Major violations should result in suspension or dismissal from the team and loss of NIL benefits.

Per the article Jamari got cited with a speeding ticket and isn't considered a suspect. It means he didn't run. One other car that got away is still being investigated.

If you are suspended or dismissed it only makes sense to lose the associated NIL.

Fullest extent of the law? A Minor's first offense, and you want to throw the book at them? Why?

Yeah, let's destroy their future over something that only hurt a cops ego.

Trying to remember being that age it's a little foggy but I'm sure I did a few things in not proud of. Money or not 19 to 22 year old boys so some dumb stuff.

There, but for the grace of God, go I.

The following is a quote from the ESPN article. With a felony evading conviction, he will have his license suspended for a year which is mandatory in Oregon. I assume there will also be a fine and probation. It all depends on the judge. Messiah better hope he/she is a Duck. It’s a good thing Beavis doesn’t have a pre-law program or law school because he could face up to five years in prison.

“Hampton is facing two felony charges of attempting to elude police and one misdemeanor charge of reckless driving, according to jail records. He was booked into Lane County Jail and was released Friday evening.”
