Va. Tech RB Michael Holmes booted by student panel for role in fight
BLACKSBURG, Va., July 9 () -- A student panel at Virginia Tech University has decided to give Hokies running back Michael Holmes the boot for his role in an April fight.Holmes, who many thought had star potential,[url=http://www.zoongu.com/Women-1/Men-3/Gucci-Mens-Sneakers-24/]Gucci Mens Sneakers[/url], gained only 280 yards during his redshirt freshman season in 2012.He was arrested in late April after a fight in a parking lot and charged with malicious wounding, a felony, and two counts of misdemeanor assault. The felony charge was later reduced to a misdemeanor, meaning he could have been eligible for reinstatement on the football team, The (Norfolk) Virginian Pilot said Tuesday.A student judicial panel found otherwise,[url=http://www.zoongu.com/Women-1/Gucci-Women-Boots-25/]Gucci Belt Men[/url], though, and "permanently separated [Holmes] from the university," Athletic Director Jim Weaver said.Normally such a decision would be made by university officials but at Virginia Tech the student panel's decision outweighs any determination Weaver makes personally.
