I guess that means ESPN can finally stop sucking this clown's cock?

Finn, that would be far too much to ask:

Mr. Schlabach is heartbroken.

You're kidding, right?  Regardless of how much you (for whatever reason) personally hate this kid, are you saying it's not newsworthy that a returning Heisman finalist / defensive MVP in college football just got kicked out of the game?  If information came to light this week that resulted in Bielema dismissing Montee Ball from the Badger football team, would you find it similarly ridiculous if someone whose occupation it was to write columns about college football thought it was newsworthy enough to mention on the same day the story broke?  Sorry, I'm calling bullshit on that.  This is eminently newsworthy.  You're free to take issue with Schlabach's tone, but this doesn't read as a puff piece on Mathieu.  He's saying the kid was an electric player and it's a shame he couldn't keep his shit together.  His larger point is that this could absolutely have an impact on the national title picture - and if you don't agree with that, I'm not sure how much you know about college football.

I don't know why you're talking about a 20 year old amateur athlete who got kicked off his football team (and out of college) for smoking weed like he's the Sikh temple gunman, but if you want to read a piece from the worldwide leader that knocks this kid, here's one.  Or, as I was told by one of the mods the other day, just be smart enough not to click on a thread here if you don't want to hear about the subject.  That's all.
