Oh Tyler...Tyler, Tyler, Tyler...

EDIT: This gif works better.

Suspended indefinitely... that doesn't sound good.

I know Storrs is boring... but, COME ON

Between this and the football player suspended sounds like the piss test taker was on campus this past week

 

[HuskyBballFan]

Well, we can officially stop speculating on who will start at center against Maryland.

Can't play and can't behave. Game over for Tyler.

 

[Zionn]

I blame his rapping skillz.

Oh Tyler...Tyler, Tyler, Tyler...

EDIT: This gif works better.

Dude looks like he could be a distant relative of Tyler

This is on top of the Spring Break thing -- that's two without even an official practice in between. Wouldn't be surprised to see the suspension be major.

Kid can't put down that bubble kush. Maybe he has glaucoma, might explain a few things...

Any frontcourt losses this season will hurt. Like it or not we need Ty this season. We are now relying on a sophomore who had limited minutes last season, and two inexperienced/raw freshmen (imagine if KFace cant play.) Ty's experience will help the frontcourt this season. I really hope he doesn't sulk his season away after KO doesn't give him a captain spot because we need as much help as possible in the frontcourt.

 

[Robertelamin]

At this point all I really care about is that he graduates.

 

[UChusky916]

Giffey should be promoted to captain and starting C

(only half joking)

Neill Ostrout @NeillOstrout
Don't know precisely yet but looks like another minor interaction with law enforcement “@pcoates: @NeillOstrout what did he do now?

 

[joober jones]

Diagnosis: A mild case of Doug Wrenn Syndrome

 

[caw]

How did he not learn anything after this summer and Wolfs issues?

 

[DreamSeason]

WTF?

Geesh! This is wrong-headed in so many ways.

1. There's no reason to suspect favoritism here. If Nolan/Facey/Brimah are better Ollie will give them more time without Olander having to be suspended in order to get it.

2. Even if Olander is at the bottom of the depth chart, it's a chart without depth. We still need all our post players, whether or not Olander is near the bottom.

3. Why revel in someone's misfortune when you don't precisely know what that misfortune is?

Sorry, that was just a strange response.

 

[UCDaveD]

Kid's a noodle head.

Damn, can we please not convert the kid to Oriackhi status. He still wears the Husky uniform (albeit struggling to keep it on). He's certainly not the first kid this has happened to here.

 

[superjohn]

Tyler was never going to start this year but we need him for frontcourt depth. Message to Tyler, quit acting stupid.

Depending on the matchup, I like this a lot. Slide DeAndre to the 5 and go to battle with Shabazz, Boat, Omar, and Giffey.
