So much for "zero tolerance".
He's reinstated but that doesn't mean he's playing Saturday.

Under the stipulations of the probation, he was not allowed to “purchase, possess or consume alcohol or illegal drugs.†The probation also prohibits Rucker from going to the bar.
They are being way to hard on him. This is just crazy. How can he live in East Lansing?

Right about now Pierre Pierce is thinking to himself, "Damn, I should have played football for Dantonio at Michigan State instead..."

They dont care at MSU. They may just be getting him out of jail for the game then he has to go back.

Lansing is a bad place. I live an hour from there and have family there. If your not on the straight and narrow this is no place to be, you can find trouble real fast.

Seriously, does anyone have any contacts with the Iowa Legislature? Is it possible we could get some legislation pushed through by midnight tomorrow to the effect of:
"No player on an intercollegiate athletic team who is currently on probation who has served in excess of one week in jail and has been released for jail for a period of less than one week may participate in an intercollegiate ahtletic competition in facilities owned by The State of Iowa or any division thereof."
Of course, there might be situations where it would hurt Iowa or Iowa State, I think that with Nebraska, K-State, MSU, OSU and Michigan frequently travelling to Iowa, it would also help our local schools sometimes. Frankly, I don't care if it hurt an Iowa guy (I doubt it ever would because we kick the guys off our teams for less) because I don't want Iowa's tax dollars or my donations to the University subsidizing criminals' NFL or NBA dreams.

From the article, "Dantonio said the decision to travel and play against No. 18 Iowa on Saturday (3:30 p.m., ABC) will be left up to Rucker.â€
WTF?!?!? The decision is up to him?

here is the article Spartans' Chris L. Rucker reinstated to team | freep.com | Detroit Free Press
way to spin it...

If this were Michigan and not State, the place would explode. The Freep would have a field day. In this case though, it's just a little bit of news. This is nothing new for Dantonio. Glen Winston damn near killed someone and a bunch of the football team beat up on a bunch of frat guys with most of them staying on the team.
