It's repulsive to me how many of you dismiss such dangerous and reckless behavior as "normal 19 year old male" behavior. Just because you failed as a parent to train your child not to act this way doesn't mean we should come to expect it and easily forgive it.

The fact that he was such a star in HS and walked on and made the team at NCSU is testament as to what he can do. Now, if he does need help, he can and should seek it. I am sure the team can help him too. I wish him well.

No one should ever, EVER be drinking and driving but that doesn't make him an alcoholic. If everyone who drunk underage in college came out a raging alcoholic, then the world would be overflowing with them. I'm not excusing his actions, he made a really stupid decision only made more prominent by his position (even if not a starter)on State's basketball team. Hopefully he's learned from it(read: never do it again) and everyone can move on.

He is only doing what all college kids do on new years eve? Wow! Is that saying it's ok? I also disagree that if it were one of the star players it would have bee swept under the rug. By who? RPD, or State? I would say neither.

He was not doing anything that a normal 19 year old would not do on New Year's Eve. He just happen to get caught and he is a walk on for NC State basketball team....move on move on....there is nothing to report here.

I'm not a State fan, but this article is a total waste of time and space. Where are the other articles on the other DWIs and please don't say this was the only one. Journalism at it's finest.

He needs to get this help now before it get any worse.-charmcclainlovesdogs2

You don't know a thing about this young man. Who are you to judge?......turbo08

Things we do know: He's 19, faces charges of provisional DWI, DWI and a lane violation. The previous comment was very much on time. This young man probably does need to seek some help before he develops a serious drinking problem. I wouldn't call it judging, but instead a very astute observation. Every comment is not a judgenment!
