Tressel up to his old tricks.

YOUNGSTOWN, Ohio — A federal appeals court on Friday declined a university's request to stop one of its football players convicted of rape as a teenager from playing on the team.
Youngstown State had asked the appeals court to throw out a Thursday night decision by U.S. District Judge Benita Pearson to temporarily allow Richmond to play football for Youngstown State for at least the next 14 days, including in the 2 p.m. game Saturday. Pearson scheduled a hearing Sept. 28 on whether to make the decision permanent.
Why is this a trick on Tressel's side? To me, the trick was that they even let this scumbag on the team in the first place.
May YSU just bench him if they don't want Richmond to play? Or will YSU get sued if Richmond doesn't play his usual minutes and how can a court determine how much the player should play in the upcoming game?
Or is it a trick so that YSU can use a talented player without being punished later by the NCAA or the court?
