Tell me about the rabbits, George
Somehow this hasn't hit wider news, but UE suspended Walter McCarty due to a Title IX violation.

https://www.indystar.com/story/sports/2019/12/30/evansville-basketball-coach-walter-mccarty-represented-indy-attorney/2778248001/

The rumor is he knocked up a sorority girl. It might also take down the AD who was covering for McCarty's drinking and partying with students.

JJ Caldwell apparently got evicted from Lobo Village and Banned from registering by the Dean of Students, who is the wife of the DA handling his case.

So now they’re being sued for collusion and/or mishandling his situation. Good stuff from Lobo Nation today!

(Also it looks like the Coach and AD did not suspend Caldwell or Bragg, that seems to have been the president under recommendation of the Dean of Students)

My theory is that our new President, who was at FSU when Winston was around, has a hair trigger; and after our starting quarterback got caught masturbating in public, we reached the point of no return here.

Sucks, because it looks like Bragg shouldn’t have ever been suspended at all.

Bragg is back and I doubt we’ll ever know why he was suspended in the first place. But at least he’s back and doing well!

Edit: and now the DA is recusing himself from the Caldwell investigation. What a mess.

In addition to being like a top 10 basketball recruit this also gives Gonzaga, which I don't think even has scholarship football, a better quarterback recruit that most of the power five.

Supposedly his parents are talking to some overseas pro teams, but that's a huge get if they can actually get him on campus

Big XII is insanely deep this year. Going to need to go 8-10 in conference to overcome a poor non-conference, plus win the SEC matchup to make the NIT. Anyone in the Big XII that can make 9 wins in conference will probably be in the NCAA's (except ISU and KSU, who would be bubble on the outside teams).

UNC lost at home to a bad Georgia Tech team and I’m clinging to how bad they are because it distracts me from how State is gonna have to fire Keatts and start all over again BBC and the cycle will never end.

Also Florida State won at Louisville and they’re looking really dangerous? But I think the ACC as a whole is just a mess this year, and not in the too-good title-winning way.

Rutgers looked like poo poo for most of OOC play, but has turned it on against Seton Hall and Wisconsin, and then destroyed Nebraska moreso than others have, so most statistical models love them right now. The Big Ten is loving murder, but at this point deserves 10 bids, whether or not it'll actually get them.

Because he’s one of the most “great college player” type college players around. Really undersized, super slow release, not particularly athletic. I would love if he was the next Andre Miller but he’ll probably be playing in the Mediterranean.

Illinois' defense is a good counter to the motion offense, Purdue has a bunch of guys who can only shoot at home, and a few more who can't shoot period, and just a good old fashion pants making GBS threads.

Iowa having the best offense in the conference despite running the most outdated poo poo possible and only having two good players is still funny. Unfortunately we are now down to like four healthy players, which I guess is interesting karmic payback for years of grumbling that Fran played too many guys

quote:

North Carolina is off to an 8-6 start to the season, and in the wake of a 96-83 loss to Georgia Tech on Sunday, a frustrated coach Roy Williams called his squad "the least gifted team I've ever coached in the time that I've been back here."

Speaking on his weekly radio show "Roy Williams Live" on Monday, the longtime coach expounded on frustrations he had about how the Tar Heels, who began Sunday's game down 19-2, performed in the loss.

"We stunk, OK. We were not very good," Williams said. "The crazy thing about it is, our team, and we've had some very gifted teams, this is not a very gifted team. It's just not."
