It’s his preliminary hearing.Do we know what sort of hearing? If he was already charged/indicted then is this his initial not guilty plea? I mean unless they have a plea deal to lesser charges they will likely just accept the not guilty plea until a plea bargain or trial?
Unfortunately, crimes rarely are, especially if you’re the victim. But here’s the real funny part.... If he is cleared, he’ll be diving into the transfer portal. Then you won’t care....Not funny.
That’s the cruddy part. After Pitt has seemingly stood by him by not kicking off the roster, he might go elsewhere.Unfortunately, crimes rarely are, especially if you’re the victim.

“When asked if he’d be returning to Pitt if given the opportunity, our source said “that hasn’t been determined yet” and also wouldn’t comment on if Hugley would want to return to Pitt if given the opportunity.”

Update on Pitt 4-Star Power Forward John Hugley
The first pull of the thread in the unraveling of the 2020-21 Pitt men’s basketball season came with the suspension of freshman forward John Hugley on Jan. 15. Since then, Pitt lost 10 of its final 12 games of the season, and has also lost five players to the NCAA transfer portal and All-ACC...pittsburghsportsnow.com
It’s an old stooges skit, and was funny at the time.I hope I’m wrong, but....

Makes sense: Fresh start and no one seems to like or get along with Capel.That’s the cruddy part. After Pitt has seemingly stood by him by not kicking off the roster, he might go elsewhere.
Get the charges reduced when he has no choice but to stay at Pitt?Why postpone the hearing?
NoIs Pitt permitted to help or pay for any legal fees or services?
There has been a stay on most live court proceedings since before Thanksgiving which has been extended once again to April 30th. This includes proceedings in district courts and muni court. Preliminary hearings where the defendant is not jailed are included. This is the most likely reason for the continuance.Why postpone the hearing?

That’s an unofficial fan account. The actual account is @Pitt_MBB.@PittHoopsMBB
People in the new town would have the internet. I only really think the fresh start theory applies if it means getting away from the actual people that were involvedIn all fairness, who wants to hang around somewhere that :
1. you have publicly been wrongly accused, or
2. your poorest decision in life as been publicly unveiled.
not me on either account.
How about Oklahoma playing Joe Mixon after the video surface of him knocking out that girl? And the Bengals drafting him a few months later.It's not like Big John is Kareem Hunt. I'm all for a second chance.
3 felony charges filed disagree with your opinionHow about Oklahoma playing Joe Mixon after the video surface of him knocking out that girl? And the Bengals drafting him a few months later.
I dont think his driving of a car his friend stole is that big of a deal. Had he stolen it or the license plate himself, that's a little different.
The real question should be , if he stays at Pitt can that experience help turn his life around and not if he can lead Pitt to the dance . There’s no question his staying will help the program.The question remains , can he get us to the dance , if he is found not guilty, charges are lowered to misdemeanor, that's the question on his future here
Ignorance is temporary and stupid is forever! If ignorance is not proven, why would you want him back. You can’t fix stupid!
I'd give Hunt a 2nd chance, JUST WIN BABY at any cost!It's not like Big John is Kareem Hunt. I'm all for a second chance.
