Just fucking stupid! If I was a betting man I would put my money on them being booted from the team. My gut feeling says that Christobal is going to move fast to make a point.
Sorry, I am with dnc on this. I feel its better for the program to send a message. Maybe they won’t play this year, and I would be fine with that. One game punishment does not seem to fit the crime.

Yes dnc, because I stand behind what I said. Some want to downplay it because it was an air soft. I see it as assault. I want the kids to learn from this.
Rutgers cornerbacks Max Melton and Chris Long were suspended from the team after they were taken into police custody for an incident involving a paintball gun, coach Greg Schiano announced Tuesday.
“I was informed that Chris Long and Malachi Melton were taken into police custody early this morning as a result of an incident involving a paintball gun,” Schiano said in a statement. “Both players have been suspended immediately.”
Melton is a starter who already has two interceptions on the season to go along with five tackles. His pick-six on Sept. 4 against Temple was the team's first since 2017. Long is a reserve cornerback.
The Scarlett Knights are 3–0 for the first time since 2012 and are scheduled to visit No. 19 Michigan on Saturday at 3:30 p.m. ET.
Could have gone with the "we need time to investigate and should have a decision by Sunday after the Michigan game"
