He might hesitate. I'm sure he will dig into the circumstances. I give a little more leeway for a guy in high school than a guy in college. Said he was helping his sister and felt he was defending his family, but the other girl was on the ground.

Simmons produced a 4.0 GPA his first full semester on campus. He represented Mississippi State at the Black Student-Athlete Summit in Austin in January. He gives motivational speeches in schools across the Golden Triangle during the offseason. On his official bio page, Mississippi State calls Simmons its team leader in community service.

If they do take him, I'm sure the marketing dept will be work overtime on his repentance.
I like Wilkins, I like his versatility. I like his character. I watched several of their games this year and they were good.
