Hidden: Vick kicked off Virginia Tech's football squad.: Wow! I knew Vick would get some kind of punishment for that flagrant display of bad sportsmanship at the Gator Bowl, but I didn't think the university would have the balls to throw him off the team. It sounds too good to be true, but Tech used some pretty explicit statements; if they bring him back, they'll have crow dinner for a couple weeks. As it looks now though, I'm taking 2-1 odds on him getting a transfer.
Bold move paving the way for respect for the program as well as the University.

It is about time that a school sends the message that one person, regardless of who they are or who their family is, doesn't take priority over the team. The sad thing is, Marcus will declare for the draft, make millions, and keep being an a$$.

If Marcus was to be the second coming of his older more mature and law abiding, that we know of, brother, he's got another thing coming. He's declared for the draft and I'm sure some stupid team will take a chance and pick him up but the guy has so much baggage, he needs help, professional help.

What about the odds of him declaring for the draft? I'd say a 50% chance he declares.
