Duhon Resignation

- Start date
that was the ONLY possible outcome here...
hope he can find a way to get his life in order.

I heard he wasn't coming back next year. Likely see him as an assistant in the NBA next year. Maybe even in Houston.....
He is a really good guy. The kids on the team love him and I hope this doesn't reflect in a negative way as they go forward. Most of all, I hope he gets his life in order.
So if you wanted to move, that's how you would do it? get arrested twice and forced to resign from job? you are a real genius.
Why thank you 19MU88. And exactly where do you rank yourself? Unfortunate situation Chris got into and I wish him well. Genius eh!
Seriously wonder about the mindset of the headman and AD , knowing that Duhon obviously has an issue with alcohol and in all likelihood knowing he was still operating a motor vehicle. Talk about putting the university in a potential hell hole (liability wise)
............not that it would help.....BUT......shouldn't law enforcement actually take their drivers license.....instead of just suspending it? Should they be required to take their driver's test over again.............lots of questions and concerns...but not many answers to the question.
Alcohol was NOT involved in this incident. He and his wife were driving home at 2am from a family get together. The car he was driving had a tail light out and they were stopped. His crime was he had a revoked license and was driving a car

If what you stated is correct......then what he did was still wrong and he has to pay the penalty. He is a grown man....not some kid. If again what you stated is correct and I was his wife I would have refused to ride with him driving. Society needs to quit babying people.
Most people convicted of a DUI tend to go in one of two directions: they either never get another again, or they just stop caring about laws regarding automobiles.
I was arrested for DUI in August of 2000, and in my night in the drunk tank, I was joined by a couple dozen folks in for the same reason. Its a small sample, but of the DUIs, I was the only first-timer; most had multiple (and I mean like 5+) convictions for DUI, driving on a suspended/revoked, etc.
The issue is that ultimately, the state doesn't have enough money to incarcerate people for driving offenses, so the penalties become toothless. After you lose your license and become uninsurable, a lot of people just ride dirty the rest of their lives, and instead of paying insurance, just pay fines.

But it doesn't make it right! That's one of the reasons why insurance premiums are so high.
He resigned. He is going to move on with his life and family. Do you not think it is time to retire this thread?
I think it's either that, or we pay for it in taxes to incarcerate the offenders.
Did he have access to a state vehicle? If he drove that vehicle with a suspended/revoked license, BRIM (Bureau of Risk and Management) would have a major cow. I ask this because I was a state employee.
