Disorderly conduct which can be the equivalent of annoying a cop just by walking by is a misdemeanor so is reckless driving (speeding with 10-15 mph over the limit) or Public Intoxication. Breaking someone's face isn't on the same level as those types of crimes which is what most normal people mean when they say 'it's just a misdemeanor'. Even a bar fight between two guys where the worst one does is split someone's lip or give them a shiner isn't on the same level as breaking their face or beating them to a bloody pulp even though those could all result in the same exact charge.

Even felonies are like this. Theft over a certain amount (which can be something as 'petty' as stealing someone's phone) can add up to a felony because that's often based on a dollar amount and in some states it can be an incredibly small amount. Possession laws are just as messed up. And yet those crimes do not equal breaking someone's face let alone breaking someone's face when you're substantially more powerful/stronger than the person you're hitting.

Call me crazy but I'd much rather have someone snatch my phone from a table while I'm at a bar than break my face regardless of whether the phone adds up to a felony but breaking my face is only a misdemeanor.

FWIW, DA said that she was drunk, started the confrontation and slapped him. He responded by punching her. That's why he was only charged with a misdemeanor.

These might be suspensions that could hurt OKL but guys Oklahoma will still be good. Doesn't change my prediction for our game against them in Norman. Maybe change the score a bit but not the outcome.

If DGB gets approved to play this season then he alone will fill the void lost by these 2 suspensions. He's a weapon! Why does it take so long for the NCAA to make/announce decisions about matters like this? He should have either been approved or not already!

Exactly, so get ready for him to be approved to play.

Mixon was released because of DBG, so they don't miss the bus with him, if OU didn't remove the players DBG would not have been okd to play...we will see if my theory is correct

So a RB in NCAA gets a domestic charge and is suspended an entire year. Ray Rice knocks out his girlfriend on camera and gets 2 games.

DGB gets kicked out of Missouri for weed, and is apparently eligible to play this year, meanwhile Josh Gordon gets 4 games for weed


Makes no sense.

And pushing a woman down stairs after forcing his way into the apartment.

How about a new motto for the Sooners or NCAA:

If you hit a woman, it must be OK.

DGB has not been okayed to play by anyone. NCAA still has yet to rule on this.

They will be fine with out Mixon, OU is extremely loaded at the rb position, Mixon was just the one with the most upside.. I doubt his release had anything to do with DGB, more more to do with hitting a woman when he should have walked away.

You literally just typed that he suspended two players, but they will do anything for a win? How does that make sense to you? If they would do anything for a win, wouldnt they have not suspended both players?

I was amazed as I read through the OU message board. They kept calling what Mixon did a misdemeanor and down playing the action while flaming the punishment. While it is true he was only charged with a misdemeanor the girl slapped him for being dumb @$$, which she shouldn't have done, but his response was to punch her in the face so hard that it broke several bones and will require surgery.

What dumb ignorant piece of $h!t calls that self defense and then blames the girl with the broken face?

My God people's priorities are screwed. If my son did that to a girl for being slapped he'd wish she had knocked him out when I was done with him.

What do you think should happen to her?

Just so all of the facts are out there about the Mixon incident, apparently the girl started the altercation, was extremely drunk , and repeatedly called Mixon the "N" word before finally slapping him. She also tweeted last night after the suspension came down "that you don't mess with me when I'm drunk... period."

Not sure that changes anything, but she is not the innocent wallflower she is being made out to be which is why Mixon was not given an assault charge.

I don't agree that a woman should never be hit if she is beating the stew out of you. I'll give a woman two shots, while I'm warning her not to. Then it's slap the hades out of her on the third swing. Your living back in the 50s, when women acted like ladies. Some women today think it's their right to slap and beat on their man and him not respond. B.S. I wouldn't hit her with my fist, but that
Face would be red as a monkeys arse.

With that comment, she sounds like real piece of work. Think about it, she was just punched in the face. It broke bones, and she has the attitude of "see what you get when you mess with me", unreal.

I don't know if it was said here, but she also had warrants out for her arrest. I'm in the "you shouldn't hit a lady" camp. The key word being "lady". But I think he did overreact with the amount of damage caused. Anyway, got to go put an "x" on the calendar. 10 days until gameday. Or one week until the first college football game, as I like to think of the coming season.

No offense, but trying to marginalize the fact he socked her in the face hard enough to break bones by saying she had arrest warrants out is pathetic.

By the way, she also spit on Mixon. Shannon has not been suspended. He is still practicing pending court rulings. I believe the OK Supreme Court will hear the case tomorrow.

His is a Title IX issue that mandates that the university follow explicit rules & procedures in adjudicating the issue. Again, there have been no charges filed against Shannon. In fact, the girl involved has refused to press charges.

What seems to be happening is that the university is attempting to follow Title IX guidelines which would mandate suspension but he istaking it to court and OU thinks they will lose in court and while all this is going on they cannot suspend him from the team. The expectation is that he will play the entire season and that the court proceedings will drag on well past the season at which time, he will have graduated and moved on.

Do yourself a favor and re-think your position. Whether she deserves it or not, witch slapping a woman no matter what the reason most likely lands you in big trouble with the law.

Remember the crazy Bama fan at the OK bowl game last year. If there was ever a woman who earned the right to a witch slapping it was her. None of those guys hit her back.

How about walking away if she slaps at you or at worst trap her arms by her side to prevent her from slapping you?
