I don’t think you can call a college student a all time bust. Kids don’t successfully transition from being a high level HS prospect to being a high level college player all the time.

“Suspended until the legal process is complete…So basically there’s a high likelihood he won’t be playing college ball bat all this year and is eligible for the 2023 draft?

He might as well try to get into second round or get signed undrafted. Not sure how any more college film of him after this season will help his case to get drafted

both sides want this situation resolved quickly, he'll plead down and get probation with a 4-5 game suspension

He's reinstated to all athletic and campus activities:

"Bates was hit with two felonies -- carrying a concealed weapon and altering ID marks on a firearm -- but on Thursday, Bates' attorney, Steve Haney, told ESPN he expects the charges to be dismissed after agreeing to a plea deal.

Haney says he will plead to a misdemeanor count of attempted illegal transportation of a weapon ... which will be dismissed off his record if he completes a diversion program.

The school confirmed the news to TMZ Sports ... saying, "The Eastern Michigan University department of athletics has received notification that there is an agreement between the Washtenaw County prosecutor's office and Emoni Bates' defense team that would result in the felony charges being dismissed."

"In accordance with EMU athletics policies, Mr. Bates is immediately reinstated to all athletic and campus activities."
