[quote name="Napleshoosier" post="38459" timestamp="1392402090"]I still say the cop should have taken him to Creans. so big ....t if he was driving under the influence. Things can be handled more discrete. Show boating cops...........look you are barking up the wrong tree with me. I have no respect for butt wipe cops that want the spot light....thats CRAP!!![/quote]

You and I generally have the same mindset on topics but we are oil and water on this. It's not like the cop was baiting him. He drank. He drove. He deserves what he gets IMO. Just a cop doing their job. Plus I hate when athletes, celebrities, etc get preferential treatment. That is exactly what's wrong with our society. But I digress. Ultimately you can't blame the cop for the actions of Hanner.

I don't think he could have done this at a worse time. I am so dissapointed in the sense that u just came off one of the most disheartening losses in iu history and r getting ready for the biggest rival and u have nothing better to do with your time? I think it shows a major lack of dedication to this team and may explain his slow development. I am sure Vic and Zelda didn't teach him this behavior but could guess others that did. I wish he would follow leaders and not the losers.<br /><br />Sent from my SCH-I535 using BtownBanners mobile app<br /><br />

He picked a bad time to do it.

There's no such thing as a good time to do it.

Very disappointing

We don't want to live in a society in which individual police officers can indiscriminately decide when to enforce statutory violations such as class A misdemeanors and felonies.

 

'Nuff said.

Okay. So here's my take. Drunk driving=bad. We all know that. Kids make mistakes. We all make mistakes. I first encourage NOT drinking. Many of u will say it's not realistic but I went thru my entire college career and didn't take a drink, so it is possible. I'm thankful that no one was hurt in Hanner's incident. I would like to speak on the character of Hanner. He is one of the most respectable, kind hearted kids I know. Alcohol obviously gives people a sense of invincibility and makes them do things they don't normally do. I'm sure that is the case here. He now feels horrible (as he should). He has to play this out in public which is extra punishment. He'll learn a lesson for sure and even more importantly so will his teammates.

I feel the need to say what people have been saying for years--FRIENDS DON'T LET FRIENDS DRIVE DRUNK.
Hanner, who are your REAL friends?

You do realize that people are killed by drunk drivers, right?

Makes me think back to Hanner's tweet not long ago, seems Hanner might be going though a tough time.  Good luck to him and hope he learns from this.

Doc, you know him better than any of us. I'm sure he will learn. Its unfortunate, but its never OK.
Why is he out at 3:00 am. He is in season. As the old saying goes, nothing good happens after midnight. Any cop is going to follow a car at 3:00 am with a college kid behind the wheel.

I hope he has learned a lesson & I hope Crean leaves him in Bloomington for the game on Sat. If Crean allows HMP to travel & dress (& worse, play) he is sending the wrong message not only to HMP & team, but the entire fan base.

It's Coach Crean's fault!

[JSHoosier 19,701]

I'd give him a 2/3 game suspension.  It was a very stupid decision endangering his life and others, plus he's an athlete his actions also reflect on the program as a whole.

[bronkonagurski 894]

Getting behind the wheel was poor judgment and I think Coach Crean will deal with the issue fairly.  Hanner will hopefully learn from this. 

[Hovadipo 53,879]

Looks like he isn't making the trip to Purdon't and Crean said he's out "indefinitely".

Tom Crean wrote in five separate twitter posts:

 

 

 "I had a chance to speak with Hanner before we left for Purdue. The first things I told him were that we loved him and wanted to support him. Hanner has let his family, loved ones and our program down and he knows that with choices come consequences. The law will handle some as will we. He will not be with us at Purdue and we will continue to work with him on a daily basis and will be withheld from competition indefinitely.

"We are disappointed in him but also disappointed for him. He knows he made some terrible choices which have turned into big mistakes."

Mr. Perea needs to be dismissed from the team for the remainder of this season. Otherwise, what is going to keep ALL other athletes from doing the same thing and expecting to get by with it ? Or a different misconduct!
This is not a good example for incoming athletes. We want to remain proud of our school! This might not have happened if everyone had been honest enough to put a stop to it when several of the team were caught drinking, and the staff just shoved it under the rug. Take the responsibility that is on YOUR shoulders. Accept what you signed up to do ! Keep our young ( under 21 ) men safe, and have fun playing on a winning team ! Let's go beat that train tomorrow !!!!!

[Hwy 1 2,053]

Crean later...

 

 

Our guys are excited and ready to face Purdue. Negativity and doubt can drain your energy and focus. We are focused on getting better. The ability to move on from setbacks, distractions and doubts are what fuel you to get better and improve. Thats where our team sits. Go IU! Our guys are learning that you have no choice but to move on to the next task no matter how your feeling. Resiliency is a skill.

I'm in Florida and can't catch the game. Anybody know of any online streaming?
