SMU Football Player Fails To Pay Prostitute, Gets Robbed - From Our Editors - SBNation.com
One of the players, identified as Uchenna Nwabuike, told police he believed the person responsible for the thefts was an escort. The linebacker from Missouri City went on to tell authorities that he had, "made a deal with the suspect to have sex with her for $50."

Devon Butler Leaves NIU Program: What The Heck Happened? - Hustle Belt
I don't think Butler did much different than lots of other prospective 21-year-olds. When you turn that age, you can finally legally drink, and you just go insane. Personally I have never understood this. When I turned 21 I went out to dinner with my parents and brought along my friend; then I went back to campus and played cards and board games and video games with some other friends. I didn't drink any alcohol and I haven't since. Never mind the fact that he threw a crazy party two days before he turned 21, which defeated the entire point of the ritual, but again, he's not the first college student guilty of this.

This time he was stabbed, but came out ok this time with no serious injuries.
