Associated Press: Louisville TE Kemari Averett charged with threat to kill girlfriend
LOUISVILLE, Ky. -- Louisville football player Kemari Averett was charged Tuesday with putting a gun to his girlfriend's head and threatening to kill her. The tight end was suspended from the team.
The 20-year-old sophomore remains in Louisville Metro jail on $10,000 bond after pleading not guilty and faces an Oct. 26 hearing. University police charged him with first-degree wanton endangerment and fourth-degree assault.
According to the arrest citation, Averett realized his laptop was missing from a backpack returned by his girlfriend after the two had been studying Suday night. The woman was unaware the laptop was missing, the report added.
Averett approached her car and put a gun to her temple, threatening to kill her, the citation said. The report added that Averett threatened to shoot the car and told her he would "have my people looking for you." Witnesses said Averett pulled her hair while pointing the gun, the report added.
The report referred to Averett as the father of the woman's baby, but he has denied it. He gave the woman a baby outfit and ultrasound pictures she had given him earlier, according to the report.
The suspension is indefinite, and coach Bobby Petrino said Averett is barred from the team facility and activities. Petrino added in a statement that the team strives to "develop a culture of accountability that everyone in our program must live up to."
Athletic director Vince Tyra backed Petrino, saying in a statement the school has "high expectations" for all its athletes and "inappropriate conduct will absolutely not be tolerated."
The 6-foot-7, 267-pound Averett has caught eight passes for 65 yards and two touchdowns in six games. Louisville is 2-5 and has a bye this week.

struck me too. I used to know a guy who would say- 'nothing is worthless if it can be used as a bad example." So I guess there is that

even better than "never again", "spurs up", "not that much better if at all", "cycling out" and "wait til next year"
They should put that on a shirt.

Here where I live in Jefferson Ga, Caleb Chandler decommitted from Iowa St. In 2017 and flipped to Louisville. I said right away it was a mistake. Iowa St. Is an up and coming program. Louisville is a den of freaking criminals and vagabonds. Wonder if he's regretting that decision. Iowa St. has knocked off Omlahoma, Oklahoma St, Texas Tech, Baylor, TCU, Memphis, Kansas played close with Texas, Iowa, etc. In the last 2 seasons.

it's pretty clean the players have adopted the thug-like gangsta mentality of their fans.
It's definitely a different element up there...very different.
