Fluid? More the timing sometimes than the result.
There’s a way to give the board a heads up as Chief did by predicting a surprise in this case rather than slandering the kid in speculation regarding offense specifics.

Sid’s probably what 18,19 years old? And facing some adversity having dealt with personal tragedy. There’s a lot that happens over the course of a season/playing career that fans can’t/won’t understand. Regardless of the pending infraction maybe we can cut the kid some slack and show some support. But maybe not. Some things are bigger than sports. Either way: here’s an opportunity for the team and Coach Hurley to rally around a kid and redefine the team’s culture.

One of the pieces we're depending in this season and probably our third most talented plaayer is suspended and is going to miss games, possibly a significant amount of time after he along with our supposed best player and senior leader miss the scrimmage for screwing up. The reaction seems pretty fair especially considering the garbage this fanbase has had to endure the past couple of years

I understand that part. I’m referring to people who are drawing conclusions about what he did or how bad it must have been based on almost no information.

Oh c’mon. You’ve started to reel me in with your sweet-talking recruit knowledge ... but to claim you gave the board a heads up on this one? Outrageous even by Chief standards.
 
Saw one of the b-ball players last night and asked him what’s the situation and he said no comment

Aha! Sounds like a gag order to me. If there was ever a doubt that the players read The Yard.......
 
Here is a thought...if you do not know...say so. If you know but can't say...say nothing. Almost all of us know nothing. I am not happy with this latest revelation. There are so many possibilities. Surprised someone hasn't speculated that he is a person of interest in(fill in the blank).

This infraction relates to Sid not the program in general. As i suggested this past weekend there are some roster spots i wouldn't mind being purged. Sid is disposable. Jalen is a senior. The expectations that this year is going to be some stark reversal of the past two years is flat wrong. Credit to Ollie for bringing in 'Rique because he is true blue. Bouknight and Gaffney are hard-nosed no BS Hurley guys. Our existing frontcourt guys don't know any better and seem to duck the flashing lights of being a college D1 athlete that have impaired Jalen, Sid, and i guess to a lesser extent CV. Hurley will weed people out or they will weed themselves out. Land a couple of the big guys we're after now and we start completely new 2019-2020. We will continue to get better.

O.K., but if you want roster turnover the time you want it is at the end of the season. Not at the beginning. If we've learned anything the last few years (besides KO wasn't getting it done), we should have learned that a 13 man roster is important because depth gets tested as the season wears on.
 
I have a feeling we won't see Sid for awhile.

The good thing is, we've got 5 guards that can play so that should enable us to play a lot of 3 guard sets. We're gonna have to at this point.

Almost chocked on my tea reading this
You spoke about surprises in context of a recruiting thread and now parlay this issue as a Chief's pick??????
Wow

I’m going to drown my sorrows at Arby’s tonight.
 
"Game competition" makes me think it is an NCAA issue. Maybe tampering charges from St. Johns?

It is a University policy violation, not an NCAA violation. Could encompass an Athletic Department rule that is part of University rules, policies, procedures; likely academic or behavioral (behavioral covers a lot).

Well failing a drug test issued by the university would be a University policy violation...

There’s breaking the law like B&E and there’s weed which is perfectly legal in many states though against U rules. There are degrees of offense. This can’t stay a secret for very long.

There is no indication that this is legal matter, which we would know about pretty quickly. They did not use the "violation of team rules" language, so it isn't just that. That means school rules or NCAA. My guess is NCAA rules. I won't speculate more than that.

That’s an idea, hadn’t thought of that. But why now? He’s been at Uconn for a year.

Chief could be wrong on his next 117 predictions and still have a better track record than you. If it was up to you, we would still have last season's coaching staff and would be looking forward to a bunch more 20 point blowout losses.

It’s really funny that some people believe that Chief even has a track record
