re: Hahnville QB "hearing" Thursday

Did anyone hear the Bonine interview? He sounded less educated and harder to understand than Bobby, Garic, and hell, throw Deke in there for good measure. Maybe he's just not used to doing interviews, but he sounded bad.

I too was less than impressed with Bonine. At the beginning, Garic started asking about general rules and principles, and without prompting, Bonine shifted to the Robison situation specifically. Garic said something along the lines of being told he could not ask about specifics of the Robison deal since it was going to arbitration, and Bonine seemed unaware that anything was off-limits. Garic got the drift and eventually started asking questions about the case, which Bonine generally did not avoid.

Bonine also said he could have made the suspension go away via hardship or other procedures, had they gone that route, but once the Robisons appealed, his hands were basically tied. If that's the case then the LHSAA is a bigger trap for the unweary than the tax code.

He also said arbitration could be done in 2 weeks, but the Robison's attorney who was on later in the show said best case would be at least a month, due to built-in time steps and time periods between each step. Arbitration would be handled via the American Arbitration Assn.

Par for the course for an organization that was prepared to strip Mondo Duplantis of his eligibility.
Remember the Mondo
