Could be not guilty.... postgazette.com However, there is this hanging over his head... >>Thursday, May 18, 2000 Casey could be expelled from Penn State for violating student conduct code University spokesman says expulsion is worst-case scenario By RON BRACKEN Centre Daily Times Rashard Casey, the Penn State quarterback who has been charged with aggravated assault as a result of an incident in which an off-duty police officer was beaten in Hoboken, N.J., Sunday morning, is also subject to disciplinary action by the university for violating the student code of conduct. And if it comes down to a worst-case scenario, Casey could be expelled from Penn State. No one is suggesting that will happen, but the possibility does exist. According to Steve MacCarthy of the Public Information Office, the process works like this: The Judicial Affairs Office at Penn State would receive a criminal complaint. The Director of Judicial Affairs, Joe Puzycki, would review the complaint and evaluate it to determine if formal action is necessary. If the evaluation indicates further action is in order, the student is called in to Puzycki's office and presents his side of the story. After hearing that, Puzycki will decide if charges are warranted. If he thinks they are, the student is told what the University-imposed sanctions would be if he decided not to contest the charges. According to MacCarthy, 98 percent of the cases are resolved at that point and the other two percent go to a formal hearing in front of Puzycki. A decision is made, based on the outcome of that hearing, on what action should be taken. Options range all the way from being found innocent to probation for a semester to expulsion. This process is separate from the judicial process and it is possible that Casey could be found innocent in a New Jersey court room and guilty at his on-campus hearing. Penn State cannot begin its proceedings until it receives the criminal complaint from the Hoboken police department. It expects to receive the complaint next week. "We're waiting for that,'' MacCarthy said. "That's the starting point. And this should be resolved by football season. But this will not be treated any differently than any incident involving a student." <<

>>TALLAHASSEE, Fla. (AP) -- It may not seem like it, but one day Bobby Bowden will retire as the Florida State football coach. The next day, the school's football field will bear his name. Florida State will call its gridiron "Bobby Bowden Field at Doak Campbell Stadium" starting the day after Bowden steps down, under a bill signed into law Monday by Gov. Jeb Bush.<< cnnsi.com Goodbye Beaver Stadium? -g-
