Yes... and I agree with Ken. I hope there is a way for the University to help him, but I think it will be difficult to justify letting him remain on the team.

I think Florida might have no other options due to the liability. Although I would hope there is an avenue to get him appropriate treatment and maintain the stability that he has in the University community. That would give him the best hope for long-term success.

The university is now on notice that he has a serious mental issue that could result in serious harm or death.

We can downplay this all we want but bottom line this is a serious issue. I agree that this will probably be plead down or dropped completely, but that doesn't change the fact that he did it. It also doesn't help the image of UF when, once again, we are in the ESPN ticker with negative news. We can no longer make fun of other schools transgressions as long as this stuff keeps happening. Yes, we deal with it differently in most cases, but obviously these kids aren't getting the message. Urban has always had a strong stance on violence against women, it will be interesting to see how he deals with Chris as he is one of his favorites. I am not advocating he be kicked off the team or out of school (although that may be school policy), rather he needs to have a multi-game suspension and enter some type of education/treatment program to ensure this doesn't happen again.
