Maybe. I don't want to say for sure because a lot of times, domestic violence doesn't get reported. It did back then, but that doesn't mean he hasn't done anything since.

Considering it was in 2017, I'm hopeful that he got his head on straight.

A man his size involved in DV? His head will never be on straight. He must be a punk!

Dallas and their BS picks continue with yet another POS:

"A woman accused new Cowboys OT Josh Ball of 11 incidents of misconduct, some involving physical harm, from July 30, 2016, to Sept. 23, 2017, while at Florida State. Ball today: "There are certain things that I’ve done mentally for me to grow as a human and as a man."

Apparently he has some domestic violence issues.

No worries, let's just blame the victim like we usually do and we'll all feel better about it.

*Bruglar say he'd be a 2nd round prospect otherwise
Just hire a babysitter to keep him away from woman.

11 incidents is 11 incidents. It doesn't matter how fast or slow you read that. Stop making excuses for horrible behavior.

Im not making excuses for his behaviour back than. I just dont accept people making a criminal of a guy that made mistakes when he was 18 four years ago and want to tell me the guy will be suspended because of DV all the time.

Let's hope that statement proves to be true. A lot can happen to a person's character over four years.

It reads to me as if she did him a favor. That many incidents over a year, and she didn't file criminal charges. Perhaps she was worried it would escalate and before he ruined his career or whole life, went for the restraining order to give him a wake up call. Since there hasn't been any incidents since then, it may have worked. I would suggest that after he signs his contract he could regress. Hopefully he actually did learn his lesson and it is all behind him.

Hopefully, this will make you quit the CZ and find another team. You don't know what happened so s t ***** up!

We actually do know. It was well reported in Florida what he did. And it appears he has never really denied the allegations. Leading up to the draft, he talked about how he had matured so it's pretty obvious he knews he did wrong and now is trying to just spin it and put it behind him.

We'll see, I guess. I just rather not have a guy like that on the Cowboys.

I don't know. Some chicks like to fight. It is a fact! lol.

Whether you're female or male, it's not a good idea to like to fight against a 6-7, 308-plus-pound man (or woman for that matter). Not saying she had anything to do with what Ball did or that he could be justified in any way for doing the things he did.

We wouldn't have half the league if we didn't want players like that. Was he arrested, charged, incarcerated? Or was he accused? If they let them play, play!
Irvin agrees with me.

He failed his first media test when he was on a call with 105.3. They asked him about his past and he was clearly agitated and quickly said it’s in the past and everyone is over it. Sounded pretty insensitive and arrogant.

Well, it's understandable. Talented, but taken lower than his talent because of domestic violence concerns. Risky in that regard. Hopefully, he's cleaned that part of his life up.

Still, would have prefered we drafted S or NT because of how much we've neglected those spots. Don't know if Jamar Johnson or Marvin Wilson will last to our next pick.

Why did Jamar Johnson drop to the 5th? Was there a character or medical issue?
