Manning went to court and threw the brick. Challenge:  these kids just make mistakes. Will he get the brick back? 

The challenge will fail but the defense attorney gets a much needed breather. Classic Manning.

“But, yeah, you know people 18 to 23 make mistakes, and that’s about growing up and learning how to, you know, be your best when a lot of people have eyeballs on that. So, you know, the people forget. No one’s perfect out there. People make mistakes, and AJ is a high profile guy, and it’s unfortunate, but you just got to deal with it. You got to make it teachable. Like you mentioned … these guys are not perfect.” - Manning

Ferrari is 25.

Do all of Ferrari's struggles post OSU further enhance John Smith's coaching ability?  Think of all the high profile coaches and destinations he has been since.  Iowa/Brands, CSUB/Luke Smith, UNC/Rob Koll, Nebraska/Manning.  Only John Smith was able to keep him on the straight and narrow for 1.5 seasons and get him to the top of the podium. 

How key was the decision to not redshirt Ferrari as a freshman?  It has to be on for the best coaching decisions of Smith:s career.

OK state has had many off the mat issues for your comments to be taken seriously.

You do recall that John was 55 when AJ started freshman year and 65 when they kicked him out a year and half later.

Some of these other programs have had problems too; gambling, unallowed compensation, hunting violations, criminal mischief, and a wrestler that got shot.  Bottom line is John Smith did what they could not.

Not sure States (TX) typically try and track down these type of violations. I had a buddy who didn't know he had a warrant for 7+ years for outstanding traffic stop (either expired registration or lack of insurance) that he thought he cleared up and that was in the state he lived in, never received a letter or anything.   

They probably don't put an interstate alert out for a moving violation but i'm not surprised that a felony gets treated a little more seriously. They don't have the cops working in shifts to find the guy if they don't consider him an immediate threat but if he gets, say, a speeding ticket, the next cop will handle the arrest.

he will be sent to texas, which has probably already happened, where he will bail out same day. won't eat a couple of weeks. 

At first I thought this was crazy, but since he bonded out he may go to (or already went to) Texas and report in so that he doesn't make the trip in a police transport. Depends on whether his Nebraska bond conditions make him stay in the state. At first I was surprised he waived extradition, but if he agreed to be extradited (from what I've seen) nobody is in a real hurry to do you a favor and send you over. You can sit in jail for weeks waiting to be transported even though you'll probably be bonded out shortly after you arrive.

Am I reading this correctly.

"According to an incident report obtained Monday morning by the Hastings Tribune, Ferrari was stopped by Allen Police Department officers on Aug. 4 in Allen, Texas, who were attempting to conduct a traffic stop on a speeding vehicle.

According to the report, the vehicle, allegedly driven by Ferrari, fled and a pursuit was initiated. The pursuit, according to the report, was “terminated” in McKinney, Texas, meaning officers discontinued the chase. "

Is it saying that the police pulled him over for speeding. He stopped. And then decided to gun it and run away? The police did not catch up to him. That's an insane thing to do!

No, all that phrasing suggests (imo) is they turned the siren on and he floored it instead of pulling over. The police stopped chasing in a rare consideration of public safety in the face of disrespect.

Which makes me wonder how they could ever find probable cause. They don't know that it was him driving the car. His mom or dad, or brothers, or a friend of his, could have borrowed the car.

It seems it happened in October so he would have been after he was admitted at Nebraska.

I dropped out of college 1 year, and went to Texas to work. Got in a wreck in a company vechicle.  Was not my fault, but got 2 tickets, 1 for not having a switching to a Texas DL. and can't remember the other, but both I felt they were unwarranted, as I did nothing wrong in my 19 year old mind. I went back home about 10 days later, and have not been in Texas since.   Anyway, that was over 40 years ago, do you suppose, I would still be in the system??

The defense attorney present with Ferrari on Monday did not waive extradition, alleging that Ferrari was pulled over on his way to Omaha where he was meant catch a flight to Texas for the purpose of dealing with the warrant.

Interesting defense, saying that he was only speeding so that he could get to the airport on time to take care of the other warrant for speeding.

🤢🤮

Usually probable cause requires some sort of identification. Unless the citing officer knew AJ personally, and saw him in the drivers' seat, or actually got his identification, a good judge would toss the crime at the probable cause stage. It's why a good police report will say "the defendant was identified at the scene using his drivers' license".

Wasnt the story that they stopped him/pulled over then he took off and they chased.  I bet they had pretty hard evidence on who he was.
