I’m not going to get all worked up about the fact that Santonio Holmes got arrested in Miami Beach on Saturday. Chances are he was dealing with a beat cop who gets his kicks harassing anyone wearing dreadlocks. Either that, or the cop was a very perceptive U. of Michigan fan.
When you think about it, though, this is really the NCAA’s fault. If the NCAA didn’t have that stupid rule that says a draftee cannot attend voluntary workouts and coaching sessions until his school holds its graduation ceremonies, Holmes probably wouldn’t have been in Miami Beach in the first place. He’d have been in Professor Whisenhunt’s classroom, learning the offense and bonding with his new teammates.
The NCAA sucks.
