Daquein McNeil to plead not guilty

Do people still want him on the team after what supposedly happened?

I want to wait for him to either admit it or wait to see all of the evidence presented in court. If what supposedly happened actually happened, I want him gone, but I certainly hope the powers that be are willing to make sure before they pull the trigger on a more permanent measure than his current suspension.
 

No reason to do anything until he has his day in court. Leave him on Norwood's exempt list.

Well said, I couldn't agree anymore.

It looks like he's still in custody. I'm guessing he doesn't have anyone that can bail him out, does he have to stay there until 1/5? Wow. What a difference a week makes.

If he can't bail out, he'll have to stay in jail until he either pleads guilty, or goes to trial, which can take months for the actual trial to begin. If he was to be convicted though, he would likely get credit for time served.
 

If he's in there until 1/5, he won't have the grades to stay eligible for second semester, right?
 

McNeil released from jail. Per the STrib:

After eight days in custody, suspended Minnesota Gophers basketball player Daquein McNeil posted bail and was released from jail ahead of a court appearance next month on charges that he whipped and choked his former girlfriend last week in Minneapolis.

McNeil was released from the Hennepin County jail about 11 p.m. Tuesday after putting up $3,000 bond and agreeing to conditions to satisfy his $30,000 bail.

He had been incarcerated since the afternoon of Nov. 24, the day of the alleged attacks on the 28-year-old woman in her apartment.

Conditions of his release include staying away from the woman, remaining law-abiding, staying in contact with probation officials and making all future court appearances.

McNeil, who was in jail for Thanksgiving and for his 21st birthday Friday, appeared in court Monday and didn’t enter a plea. Defense lawyer F. Clayton Tyler said McNeil will plead not guilty.

Go Gophers!!
 



he's still on the roster, so he was able to finish the first semester and in class for the second semester?

also, if he's suspended, does that mean he's prohibited from practices (or just games)?
