Maybe they should do like SIU did and ban all of their players from even stepping foot in any bars....

Don't worry, Lew "the Terminator" Perkins will take care of everything. It is only a few dollars and excuses away from being settled.

He will be there repeating his motto, "No fear, Big Lew is here!"

Personally, I just hate to see kids use bad judgement. I take no joy in it being the "enemy", I just don't want to see kids mess up. One of mine has done enough messing up to cause a great deal of pain to many, and it will continue for possibly generations to come.

Take this as a wake up call Brady and don't ever take a chance like this again.

I see a theme developing..

Suspended for the first semester. This is much more than I expected. Maybe Self is sending a message to his team. Righfully so.

I don't think Boo was suspended at all. But then there was no way to tell.

[pogo]

I think the operative phrase here would be "he violated team curfew rewstrictions that are more severe since last week." Looks like bs put new guidelines in place to keep things like this from happening, and morningstar happened to be the first one caught and was made an example of. He sent a message and pity the next fool to break a team rule.

[Txlen]

Yes, but the real question is what kind of punishment will be levied against the players who participated in the fights recently. Has any punishment been levied yet?

Is this going to be punishment meted out according the player's importance to the team?

[pinstripers]

Sadly, that looks like a possibility.

[shocklight]

Brady screwed up, but many kids do. His punishment has been delivered. I'll give him a pass because this is his first offense (that we know of). I just don't get the part where you play for a team, that is perseason #1 and your focus isn't 100% on basketball. Hopefully, he has learned his lesson, but if it happens again, he's fair game to any and all critics.

I give BS a pat on the back, he is making a stand for his team rules.

[pinstripers]

Politically, it's expediant to blister this kid rather than blister the ones last week.

[benishock]

Believe me, I hate KU as much as anybody. However, let's give this kid a break. How many of us never deserved a DUI while in college (or several?)

[shockball]

Self improvement.
