Opening Odds...

[claver2010]

As to who is suspended to start the 2010-11 year.

As a review:
2009-10: Raji, Rakim, & Dunn -suspended for several games to start the year for "violation of team rules" aka
2008-09: Tyrese -I believe it was another non-sanctioned game, not sure
2007-08: Rice & Spears -non-sanctioned game
2006-07: **** ******** -he's **** ********
2005-06: **** ******** -he's **** ********
2004-05: Craig Smith?

So here are the opening odds (freshmen aren't included)...

#0 Reggie Jackson: 20-1 Reggie has had few problems thus far in his two years at BC. A longshot.
#5 Biko Paris: 25-1 Biko hasn't had any problems off the floor in 3 years, another longshot
#11 Raji: Even Corey was one of the three amigos that got caught smoking -Skinner has been on his case about
#12 Joe Trap: 30-1 My guess for one of the captains next year -even though that hasn't stopped anyone before (Tyrese)
#15 Rakim: 3-2 Has already been suspended, but apparently hasn't gotten the same pressure from about
#24 Ravanel 5-1 Sleeper, already has been academically ineligible for a semester
#30 Elmore 20-1 Really like this kid, don't see it happening. Only way would be an unsanctioned game since it appears he is a workoholic
#52 Southern 15-1 *insert quip about his basketball playing skills here*
#55 Dunn 3-1 Part of the three amigos, hangs out with Rakim a lot which probably isn't good news

Rakim, Raji and Dunn will all again be suspended.

I wish Southern would be suspended, but I don't see it happening.

I'd love to see how lethargic Southern is after smoking pot.

In fairness to Rice's 08 one game suspension, that never would have happened at any other school and wasn't Rice's fault. He was invited to a big Reebok luncheon as part of the BC contingent. Reebok gave away cheapo gym bags to the attendees. This was not some shoe company dirty trick. Think rubber chicken, middle manager hotel ballroom lunch that we've all dreaded. The only problem with the cheapo bag was that it could have been considered a gift and he was the only scholarship athlete there. No other school would have self reported that and no other school would have sat out their all conference player. I guess the nerdification has spread to our compliance office.

I would like a superfecta rastafarian box on these 4 pot smoking lazy dopehead rejects.

But what is the point?

THIS IS NOT THEIR PROBLEM.

THIS IS A LACK OF INSTITUTIONAL CONTROL AND DISCIPLINE ON THE PART OF GDF, ALSLEEP AND BC!

These kids are doing what the fuck they want and that is not allowed, unless you are a fucking pussy?

Do you think Duke Stars and Duke kids who get caught smoking dope during the season play, or are smart enough or want it more?

Test these stupid lazy motherfuckers every week and if they come up positive again, revoke their scholarship and use intramural players.

This will implement a permanent solution and end the weed smoking.

Have a team meeting.
Inform all including trainers and assistant coaches that there will be weekly dope testing starting in 10 days.
No second chance, you are done.
No appeal. Your rights do not exist. You are a guest of a private college and you get room board books spending money and food cash.
Your scholarship is revoked and you cna transfer or wait until next year?
Simple?

Problem fucking solved.

I like Evan Ravanel as a basketball player, but I'd give him the best odds of this group.
