Brandon Austin suspended indefinitely from PC...

[Mooch82]

Borges tweeted that Austin and Rodney Bullock have been suspended indefinitely from PC...anyone know any details? Where's our PC trolls when we need them?

 

[BFieldHusky]

Rumor is it could have been an incident around Halloween as grades have not been released as the first semester continues.

 

[Dmike]

PC is absolutely amazing I tell you at beating us in recruiting battles for players who never get a chance to play for them.

I'm hearing that things got heated in practice and they both told Ed Cooley to get a hat.

Talkin about labtop gate, Nate Miles, APR scores, etc, on their own forum.

Ed Cooley holds his players accountable for their actions
On and off the court

So do other coaches...like Ollie...

I don't think it's grades. More likely partying and the things that come with it. If you know what I mean...

This could cost them a number 4 seed in the NIT.

My guess is the University passed this down to Cooley.

What does that have to do with their current predicament? Glad to see PC is now recruiting kids with so much integrity and character.

All joking aside, PC has never really recruited high calibur recruits (with a few notable exceptions). When you routinely recruit kids hovering around or outside the top 100, it's easy to get great character kids because they are grateful just to have a place to play. Now suddenly they land a pair inside the top 100 and they are bad apples? So sad...

True though a bit reactive and not quite as proactive as one would like.

Free Marvin Barnes!

dude, get out of here.

Olander was the designated driver. He passed 2 alcohol tests. The car wasn't his and he didn't know it wasn't registered. His only crime was driving w/o a license. Does this make him a jackass? Should he have missed games. Methinks not.
For those suspended under Ollie, just look at Enosh Wolf.
Do a little research before you speak.

 

[CAHUSKY]

Should have stopped there. PC's motto.

 

[TRest]

I know there is no one to talk to on the PC board, but you have to let us go.

They are freshman; who have been in school for 10 weeks. Suspending them before the season starts; I don't know how much more proactive you can be.

Seriously? we were going hard after this kid, too...

This sounds like a grades issue. Or missing required study time.
If it's missing study time they'll probably miss a few games. Bad grades then who knows.

You're right; not everyone can recruit role models like Tate George and Ben Gordon

I'll bet they'll be excited to see "current Red Sox player John McDonald" with the WS trophy.

And Calhoun.......do we need to list all of the suspensions despite seemingly minor issues? Again I applaud Cooley for his structure!
