Should Jameis Winston drop out of Florida State?

|

Michael McCann has an interesting take on the Florida State disciplinary proceeding for Jameis Winston, he should just drop out. While the argument is nuanced, the crux of the argument seems to be that university disciplinary proceedings are kangaroo courts and that any evidence or findings could provide fodder for a future, inevitable civil action. After reading Mike's column it seemed to me that he makes a pretty compelling argument for Winston to drop out and skip the rest of the season.
