Chane Behanan academically ineligible for Louisville

[The Governor]

That's the word I'm hearing anyway. It'll be interesting seeing Pitino spin this.

 

[SWFLCUSE]

This would be huge if it can be confirmed!

 

[EastCoast2]

Tough break for UL if true. Consensus top 5 team, primed for a big year.

I hope none of you whackos go over there and talk smack. This issue is way too close to home for us to talk.

 

[Shrmdougluvr]

Hmm... Struggling with Louisville's rigorous academic standards, should have gone to Kentucky.

He has been suspended for an exhibition game and Pitino has banned him from speaking to the media for the first semester.

Would this just be for 1st semester, or longer?

Weird timing.

Pitino said that Chane couldn't speak to the media until the second semester of this school year.

 

[Marsh01]

Thats because he failed public speaking.

That's his punishment? I would have taken that for Fab in a heartbeat. "Fab, don't talk to the media until after we win the title.".

This sounds like a pretty lenient academic suspension, unless of course this is some kind of carryover from last season, and he just now became eligible.

I believe it should be looked at as if he's going to be suspended for the semester, meaning that the media cannot talk to him because he may not technically be part of the team at the moment.

Maybe I'm reading your post wrong, but while breaks are nice, I'd like for SU to win with opponents at full strength.

"Contrary to what your Big Blue Nation friends are telling you, this has nothing to do with academics, and though it's a little weird, it's really not that big of a deal."

Nobody felt like their title was invalid in 2010 or 2012 because our center was hurt.

Would like to see Behanan go up against Nerlens Noel and the Kentucky front line this year.

Oh I'm not saying it invalidates it, I'm just not much for openly rooting for injuries or ineligibility hammers.

You have no clue.

 

[SmilinBob]

You have no clue.

I'd love to see Louisville be the 16th team in the ACC.

Rumor has it he told the press he preferred DiGiorno over Papa John's.

golf clap

Couldn't keep a D- average?

rough stuff

Never bothers me. Lord knows we've had our share of losses due in large part to ill-fortune. You either outscore your opponent or they outscore you. The only asterisks I've ever seen in record books are for shared or vacated titles. I've never seen one for "so-and-so lost due to missing key player from injury/suspension".

It's crazy how Papa John's has naming rights to their football stadium and Yum (Pizza Hut, KFC, Long John Silver, Taco Bell) has naming rights on their basketball arena.

They must really like their fast food in Louisville.
