Marcus Vick- Hit the road jack, dontcha come back......

I posted about Vick here saying:

"Vick should be kicked off the team. Plain and simple. I guess it shows that colleges will over look things for the star player. That is sad."

Alerted by a comment from Mandy, I see Virginia Tech has made the right move. From the RTD.

Tech President Charles Steger announced in a school-issued release Friday that Vick "has been permanently dismissed from the Hokie football program due to a cumulative effect of a legal infractions and unsportsmanlike play."

Good move Tech! I guess I could be converted to a Hokie fan. Lets hope this will set a standard for players. Va. Tech gave Vick too many chances to begin with and that is what got them to the point they are at. Vick was a thug and Tech allowed it. It took his actions in the game for them to understand this. To quote Barney: They should have "nipped it in the bud."

More at Bacons Rebellion and the GOPHokie.

Chad has this statement and more at CC. When asked about being kicked of the team Vick said “It’s not a big deal. I’ll just move on to the next level, baby”
