Jalen Arrested for Scooter Accident

[superjohn]

Good lord if we can’t beat Colgate with or without Adams we really need to consider whether it even makes sense to have a basketball team! I mean really. It’s Colgate not Duke or UNC. We should win handily and Adams should learn a lesson at the same time.

Nobody should be surprised if it's a close game or we lose to Colgate, with or without Adams.

No Vital starting, even with Jalen suspended

Wtf. Also didn’t Ollie say that Diarra was a starter?

 

[Coach J]

I like Polley - hopefully this will be a nice confidence boost for him!

 

[Guapo]

I don't mind Vital coming off the bench for the early part of the season.

Anderson provides a veteran presence on the court.

 

[ASweet3781]

Really no middle ground here. This will either turn out to be the best thing for the team (opportunity for role players to step up and for Adams to learn a valuable lesson and light a fire under him) or the worst thing (another horrific opening loss which could lead to another miserable year and the heat turned up on your best player and coach in Game 1.)

It said debris was in the road.

The AP article reported that he ran into a friend. They all departed together.

Who could have been injured?

Unless there is an unknown floating out there - close the chapter and move on.

 

[upstater]

You're the one one getting testy.

Jeez. Calm down. You're also the one speculating about all sorts of things (injuries to others).

The kid left with the friend he ran into.

Still awaiting word on Jalen Adams' status - was not warming up with #UConn teammates pregame

It’s amazing how far ahead of the CT media I was on this one.

It’s all about relationships and loyalty and not the kind in your imagination.

When you have no accountability, you can say whatever you like, whenever you like.

 

[MexicoHusky]

I think he should sit a few more games. 5 is a good #

Goofing around is fine. Running from the scene of the accident is not. It's on the edge of serious. He turned an accident into a crime. Furthermore, did he think they would not track him down? He left his ride. I'm sure running was a quick decision. But it shows bad instincts.

Serious? A minor accident between 2 friends - no one hurt. Move on.

 

[Chief00]

Chief will continue to break news on this story. Jalen will play Tuesday. Still unclear if he will start or come off bench.

Chief being Chief. Upstater being Upstater. So many others playing to type.

This thread has it all.

Agreed. I'd sit him 5 games and I'd move on.

You are off by 4 games.

You are an amazing man Chief (you're a man, right?). Truly amazing. Everything you do is amazing. It's amazing the UConn hoops program can survive without your assistance, much less the fan base. Keep up your amazing work Chief, we're all amazed.

 

[MexicoHusky]

You are off by 4 games.

Probably. That's just what I'd do. I'd also consider sitting him for just one more game. But it would be an important game. Like Oregon.

You need an introduction to D1 basketball. How many games are you sitting the whole UNC team?

D1 basketball needs an introduction to reality. You do not run from the scene of an accident.
