Psych!

We did have an apology post up for not having anything today, but we took it down because it looks like our day just opened up.

Now here is some suspended news, but without the John Mayer metrosexual vibe...



Junior forward Kenny Cooper is suspended for the season at Louisiana Tech for repeatedly fucking up.

"Unfortunately, Kenny is not willing to make the commitment necessary to remain a member of our team, (coach Kerry) Rupp said in a statement released through the La.Tech media relations department. "He will continue on scholarship for the remainder of the year which will allow him to concentrate on obtaining his degree."

At least he gets to keep his scholarship ride. Nice.

Mizzou senior forward Leo Lyons is suspended indefinitely for:

a) driving without the car’s lights on (at 11 pm at night)
b) no proof of insurance
c) an outstanding warrant for his ass

All of this led the cops to say "Welp, we gotta arrest you now. Don't think you'll be playing at the Colorado game."

Hey, did you hear that Bob Knight and Billy Packer are going to host a series of 1 hour college basketball analysis shows?

In Las Vegas. At the Wynn Sports Book.

Something doesn't seem quite right with that. We would think that the NCAA may raise an eyebrow. We know they are not coaches or players or school admins, but still. They lend a certain bit of credibility which could be tarnished as people are walking by them saying things like:

"Packer just said UNC's gonna win at Duke! I'm putting my kids college fund money on that!"

Meh.
