Nice job by Mizzou staff on this one. They weren't able to be part of September basketball activities though - what a message to send.

"If you jump some kids you won't lose any time that matters, no worries, keep assaulting but be sure it's off season okay?"

WTF

I saw that. It really is unbelievable to think these kids are still on campus. Then again, PC did the same exact thing with an incident a few years back. They tried to sweep it under the rug.

You know you're in bizarro world when you read something like this:

"They have both returned and are practicing and working out with the team," Anderson said, according to the Kansas City Star. "In order to return, they had to fulfill some things that we wanted them to do in regards to character development, in regards to community service, in regards to basketball conditioning.

"They fulfilled those and, as a matter of fact, have surpassed our expectations."

PC was different, way more brutal. One of the basketball players got 15 years, I don't think it was swept under the rug either.

The quotes and stance are laughable and these kids are idiotic thugs but I imagine more than a few schools would have accepted them back. I'm just happy we didn't land Gant, and set our new precedent by taking the high road w/ Wolf last year.

Well, Iowa State took 3 games from players for a lesser offense: http://espn.go.com/mens-college-bas...l-nader-iowa-state-cyclones-suspended-3-games

This Missouri coach was suspended indefinitely. http://espn.go.com/mens-college-bas...uspended-arrest-suspicion-driving-intoxicated

And by indefinitely, they mean they don't know if he'll be back on Wednesday or Thursday.

Nothing like a Mizzou post to bring beakum out of the woodwork

Hey!

Zombie-Beakum! Good to see you back prowling around our neck of the internet.

I guess all it takes is for someone to post something about Mizzou.....

I honestly don't follow Moo sports anymore since they took their ball and left in a huff for the SEC. I know their Hoops coach left for Tulsa, which cracks me up, and their stud wide receiver got booted off the team due to legal/character issues and went to Oklahoma, but that's about it. This is the first I have heard of this story, and it does not surprise me.
