Boatwright was already lost for the season with a left knee injury, and it sounds like Metu could soon involuntarily be sidelined with him. If the Trojans didn't want to risk probation with Melton earlier this year, why would they risk it with Metu now? The Trojans could spit in the NCAA's eye and make them prove these trivial charges against Metu, a process that would allow him to keep playing. But they've tried that before and how did that work?
