    I never even knew there was a hoops board. Ha, live and learn.

    Nice that LoRo now has a nice little excuse for when he misses the tourney yet again.

    Holy. Shit.

    If it wasnt already, TSIFO.

    Wow, can you imagine how shitty they are going to be the rest of the season? It will take unwatchable to a whole uglier level.

    Wonder if he still goes 1st round. If i'm him I try to get picked up over seas and make a quick six figs before the draft. He strikes me as a guy that needs to be in an active program to have a chance at reaching his potential. I don't trust him to get solid work in at the local YMCA.

    That being said, who gives a shit, he's gone and brought nothing more than wide eye block shotting to UW.

    Hopefully it was for beating the shit out of Romar.

    unbelievable

    Yet, so believable. Upshaw was the only good thing about UW ball all year. Even Goss has been a disappointment. We have nothing left. Yes, I just said we. I'm almost blacked out.

    If it's only for smoking weed, Romar needs to DIAFF. And if that is the only issue, Upshaw is still going first round. He was working his way towards lottery.

    My thoughts exactly. He better have majorly screwed up and deserved this boot or i'm going to be pissed. Even if he was angry about the Utah loss and got wasted off some maddog 20/20 and attacked a teammate for playing like a girl he shouldn't be kicked off.

    The season was already over, now they'll be lucky to win 2 more conference games.
    They are probably the 2nd worst team in the conference to usc now

    If upshaw threw an absolute fit because he wasn't getting the ball I honestly wouldn't blame him. Kemp too

    There are some pretty bad teams. Giles Dierix or whatever the fuck his name is will now get more minutes. That might be worth watching for comedic purposes.

    All depends on what the root cause was ...

    He'll still most likely be a first rounder because of size ... but I doubt lottery at this point.

    Thing is that the bigger issue with him on this is that he's proving once again that he isn't trust worthy and that now becomes a harder sell for him to teams to believe in him since he continually gives reasons not to.

    I highly doubt it was for weed. When I was in school, Bob and some of the other fellas would smoke weed before games. Had to have been something more.

    This sucks assburgers. Why was he booted from Fresno?

    Anyone have an edumacated, yet highly speculative opinion?

    Why do I get the feeling that Romar is basically Ward Cleaver regarding this kind of shit? Like Mt. Zion Baptist, be back before midnight kind of social conservatism.

    Something about turning Romar's daughter into a roast beef shish kabob with his purple throbber.

    I think Romar is more serious about running a clean program than most, but we haven't seen many kids kicked out in his tenure, and it's not like he's recruiting cerebral, lunchpail, kind of guys you'd want to date your daughters. I don't think Romar's looking for reasons to toss great players off the team. I would guess he basically had no choice with Upshaw.

    I'm not attacking your lifestyle choices, if you're concerned about that.

    I'm not sure about that. Other drugs are out of the system pretty quickly. To fail multiple drug tests, it's gotta be weed. I don't think he would get multiple chances with harder drugs.

    I'm sure there are other guys on the team that smoke, but Upshaw probably has different rules which were put in place when he transferred.

    I guess the moral of the story is always carry a bag of clean piss. You really think it's for smokin' doobies down on Montlake Cut?

    It seems like Romar has a pretty stable way to handle these situations. He gives the player multiple shots to succeed, and if the player doesn't not meed the standards he's booted. For me, I like how he structures it. It's totally up to the player to handle his own shit. If he chooses to drink/smoke/etc well that's his choice. Romar isn't going to be the guy running around and covering up players issues(this isn't oregon).

    Upshaw isn't a college guy. Just go to the dleague and see if you can hang. Once there, tweed is less of an issue.
