Just a guess but there may have been other people inside the WaWa, besides his brother, who could have been harmed.

Understand I’m not defending anything about this situation. Just stating that it doesn’t sound like a situation where he was likely to face hostile employees.
That's fair, but when someone commits a crime with a weapon, there are many different directions the situation could take. What if someone was in the bathroom and comes out and startles the perp? What if someone walks in the door behind them? What would happen if it was someone who recognized Young? It is a high pressure situation, with no telling of how someone will act. Pretty scary.
The whole thing is just pretty darned sad.

Pretty sure you read it correctly. But the other guy in the office at gunpoint doesn’t sound to have had a basis for knowing he wasn’t in harm’s way. Maybe there was knowledge or a relationship that would have brought comfort in the moment at gunpoint. Maybe an act and all were in on it. We’ll see.
But even assuming the best wherever possible, this is still bad news if he stole the money and had a gun. What if someone overheard them, saw the gun and tried to interfere, even if it was fake. etc etc.
Again, I’m keeping an open mind. And we all should. But we also can’t be foolish in our presumptions or hopes of innocence when he seems to have said he did it—whatever the specifics.
Just a suggestion but I think we should not post Isheem's case in this thread. There was a thread specifically about this incident and I'm thinking updates probably should go there now since the kid is no longer a recruit. Maybe down the line someone gives him a 2nd chance but he is not a 2018 recruit at this point.
It was supposed to be easy money. No such thing in life, unless you are born with a trust fund. Now he will almost certainly be doing hard time. Terrible choice and dreadful consequences. Felony convictions are economic suicide, for all intents and purposes.
Thanks Ranger for doing the research. Ohh well, i'll take a Top 5 finish as well!
But crazy how good of a job CJF is doing with recruiting. We all knew that PSU was a sleeping giant. But man does it feel good to finally see things turn around.
Strange tho, Sean Fitz commented on it saying he believes the recruit is "Irish Bound."
So, that leads me to believe the recruit Spencer was visiting was not committed and a Notre Dame lean, but also had a PSU basketball court? Strange....
I think he's being sarcastic.
Change that, it is freiermuth. Just looked at his twitter and there is a picture with all coaches and his family on that exact basketball court. Mass kid is always a possibility for Notre dame I suppose, but he looks happy with the coaches.
Great, I love sarcasm from my twitter follows. As if recruiting isn't confusing enough to follow.
Lol I thought the sarcasm was pretty clear there
Sarcasm doesn't translate very well to the inter-webs.
Annual ritual....Penn State verbals fall in updated Rivals Rankings....

I read somewhere that he had/is having surgery again on one of his shoulders. Not sure if it's the same one, but it's a bit worrisome if it is. Shoulder repairs are often iffy. If it's the same shoulder that's having a repeat procedure, that is definitely not a good sign.
Of course, any high school kid having 2 shoulder operations by any description is not a good thing.

Or hadn’t challenged the kid to a game of HORSE on his home court before tweeting...
Following speculation about Taggart going after Miner for FSU.

Lots of smoke with Miner, that's for sure. Ah well, there's other fish we can fry, if needed.
