Trespassing

 

[superjohn]

WTF is wrong with these guys, I get that they are young and want to party and have a good time but seriously learn how to handle your booze. You are a freaking bball player at UConn with a National Championship ring, you should be able to enjoy some libations in the offseason and the tail should flock to you.

Olander is 20 so I wonder if it could be more than just trespassing if he was intoxicated.

Facey will be starting at the 5 next year at this rate

 

[BigErnMcCracken]

Trespassing? Man, rough year for Tyler. Even his arrests are a little embarrassing. At least he beat the jaywalking charge.

If it was not for Cuse our program would lead the nation in arrests over the last decade if does not already. Pathetic and embarrassing.

Trespassing with a foot still mending. This guy must have been drunk out of his mind. LOL! Hopefully he will still be with the team as we need him as a backup. I hope that PN is starting at center next year with KF the primary backup for our froncourt. My hope for TO was if we would be the next big man off the bench. Looks like the center from Miami might move ahead of him in the depth chart at this rate. LOL.

Enough is a enough. Kick Wolf and Tyler off the team. These weekly arrests are totally unacceptable and humiliating for the school. I don't care how minor the charge Ollie needs to make an example of both that this will not be tolerated.

Is he still on crutches?

Very true and sad... duffy had a crazy stat something like 10% of our players have been arrested as a husky since 2000..

It said that he just had sucessfull surgery on Wednesday in the article. So not sure if he had it then but I guess it was earlier in the week. Wow he didn't waste any testing it out. What an idiot.

So much for getting through a year without any off court ary. The lack of discipline and maturity these guys have shown continues to amaze...You're 6-9. did you think they were going to not see you, Tyler? How many kids go to these places on Spring break andhow many end up spending the night in jail? You almost have to be a total to get arrested.

Which translates to what - 1 per year if you're not counting walk-ons?

Hardly. Hofstra alone disproves your point. Just google "basketball player arrested" and hundreds of articles come up. We are hardly alone when it comes to young entitled college basketball players acting like idiots.

3-2-1...waiting for posts from ace or somebody claiming Olander is just a misunderstood lad having a little fun...

Ace? When the hell have I ever excused players acting like idiots? Go duck yourself you assclown.

 

[3rdbass]

I guess we can't refute our name other schools call us Uconnvicts! We surely seem to want to emulate it. Ugghh! These are JC's recruits so I hope KO is recuiting a different breed.

 

[Fishy]

I'd kinda like a little more detail before deciding that he's not just a misunderstood lad having a little fun.

He hasn't exactly been an ax murderer to this point in his life.

If memory serves, trespassing was a catch-all for underage and drunk when I was spring-breaker.

That's because we provide them with the players. Hofstra was so impressed with Jamal Coombs-McDaniel's arrest for smoking weed they offered him a scholarship

 

[FeedTheDove]

This is duck*ing embarrassing.

 

[Doggie Style]

Jesus Chr.... What the hell r these idiots doing up there? Maybe it's time for Warde and JC to close the locker room door and flip a few tables over to convey the fact that it is a Privlilage to wear this uniform, not a right! I agree w/ the previous post. Someone's got to be shown the door to send a message if this continues. Right now perception is EVERYTHING for us, and these morons are contributing to an already negative national perception. Not a strong message to send to potential conferences......

This is why I always went on Spring Break in the Caribbean when I was in Storrs. The funny thing is I remember the Panama City trips were the cheapest ones on those flyers posted all over campus in the 90s!

I haven't picked up a Playboy in years. Are we still one of the top party schools?

Yep. My buddies and I didn't have the money to do spring break the proper way one year, so five of us jammed into a Chevy Malibu and drove down to Ft. Lauderdale, taking turns at the wheel and driving straight through. We had no place to stay, so we were left to fend for ourselves to try to land safely somewhere every night. Most nights I slept underneath a catamaran on the beach and was awakened at sunrise by cops hitting the bottoms of my feet with their flashlights, telling me I'd be arrested for trespassing if I didn't leave immediately. Until I hear more, this sounds like it could be that type of situation. In my case, the worst thing that happened to me was getting my ear pierced one morning after an early morning happy hour at the Elbow Room.
