Scirrotto Takes a Plea Deal

And it's about time. Today, PSU starting safety Anthony Scirrotto pled guilty to a misdemeanor count of defiant trespass as part of that deal. Lucky for him, he loses the felony charge and just has to perform some community service, pay $500, and be on probation for a little while. What I'm curious to see is if JoePa will take any action. Last season, he said that he would reduce Scirrotto's playing time early in the season and never did. Now, he pled guilty to a misdemeanor, thus affirming at least some sort of wrong doing. I think that JoePa should suspend him for Coastal Carolina and maybe Oregon State. If anything, just to make up for not suspending him last year when he should have been. Either way, it's a relief that this didn't go to trial and end up with Scirrotto getting convicted of a felony. The secondary needs him badly next year.
