Update 3:30 p.m.

He is not going to New Orleans, but Cody Journell is heading home to Giles County.

"The court will make it a 100,000 dollar secured bond," said Judge Josiah Showalter.

The suspended Virginia Tech place kicker's parents put up the family home as collateral to get him out of jail.

According to court testimony, prosecutors say Journell, Matthew Brady, and Matthew Dunton rushed into the Blacksburg home of Tech basketball player Dorenzo Hudson, and his roommate Sean Allen, using a BB gun a week ago.

"He and the other two boys are very lucky that somebody on the other side didn't shoot and kill them," said James Turk, Journell's attorney.

Prosecutors say a fourth man who drove the three to the home, but was not charged, told police the incident was all over stolen marijuana involving Allen.

"He stated that all three defendants, including this defendant Mr. Journell made a plan to go over to Mr. Allen's house in order to quote settle the score," said Patrick Jensen, Assistant Commonwealth's Attorney in Montgomery County.

The conditions of Journell's bail include living with his parents in Giles County, a 6 p.m. curfew, no contact with Hudson, and no drugs or alcohol. He also cannot leave the state.

Judge Showalter said he granted bond, because Journell has no criminal record, he was not the one holding the weapon, and the victim did not oppose him being released.

Brady and Dunton remain in custody after withdrawing their appeals, to hire new attorney's from their hometowns.

A preliminary hearing is set for all three on February 23rd.

Update 8:55 a.m.

Virginia Tech kicker Cody Journell and two other men appeared before a judge this morning (Wednesday) for a bond appeal.

Journell, Matthew Dunton, and Matthew Brady are accused of breaking into a Blacksburg home with a BB gun last week.

A judge released Journell on a $100,000 secured bond.? Dunton and Brady withdrew their motion to appeal bond, and are still in jail.

The suspended football player?s father put up the family home as collateral to get his son out of jail.

Stipulations of the bond are that Journell must:

• Llive with his parents
• Obey a 6 p.m. curfew
• Have no contact with Dorenzo Hudson, a Virginia Tech basketball player who lived in the home that police say was broken into
• Remain alcohol and drug free

A preliminary hearing for the three is also set for February 23rd.
