dunlap is cleared to play

I don't care if Dunlap is back. DUI is serious business. If he does play, I hope he is a non-factor in our win. (I'm trying to optimistic, not cocky here.)

If he does play, I just hope he shows the right attitude out there.

We obviously don't know all the facts, but I don't think he should play either.
Playing college football is a privilege, not a right.
A DUI is not just some minor crime. And I'm sure the many fans that have had someone close to them injured or even killed due to a drunk driver don't think they are trivial either.

If we had won the NC, I'd still be mad. In my job, a DUI is a career ender. It's serious business, more serious than football. As a military supervisor, I've had to fetch people arrested for DUI out of jail while I was on leave. I abso-f***ing-lutely hate DUIs! Someone else mentioned losing lives due to DUI. This goes beyond football and championships, at least for me.

Absolutely right. DUI's can end a career, they can stop a career from getting started, and they are definitely not minor.
And for anyone out there who say that everyone else in college does it, or that we shouldn't be so hard on him, Dunlap has a full scholarship to one of the best public universities in America both as far as academics and football. Those are privileges, not rights. And forgiving someone does not mean that person is absolved from punishment.

I don't think he should be allowed to play.
DUI is serious. Also under age drinking as well.

I find it interesting how many of you saying Dunlap shouldn't play don't take into account the rest of the team and seem to think keeping Dunlap from playing is the only way to punish him.
I think ideally, there must be a way to severely punish Dunlap, yet not let that punishment hurt the rest of the team. I refuse to believe that the only way to further punish Dunlap is to keep him from playing in the Sugar Bowl.
Trust me, I'm not a person to taking it easy on DUIs. If I had my way, I would change current DUI laws in such ways, I know most of you would think I was crazy...but that's another discussion for another type of message board...

take away his scholarship and slap him with a bill for the past years academic costs?

Agreed; it's not right to let the morale of the team suffer because of one individual doing something stupid; Dunlap needs to learn from his mistakes and move on. Trust me, Dunlap will pay the price for that DUI down the road when it comes to possible employment as well as having the mark on his driving history. Let him play in the bowl game, but if he's considering the NFL, the DUI will raise a red flag from some teams.
Quoted for truth.
