Are we losing a player for the year?

[tornado]

Has anyone else heard this are we going to lose a player? This is the same person who told me about Will and POB 3 weeks before it was announced last year.

Yup ! From a knowledgeable source, however would not give a name. Source did offer some info which narrows it down, but because of the obvious sensitivity, on this board. I choose to not go any further.

Told you what about Will and POB?
Told you about the violations over the summer?
Because nobody knew about the violations before they happened, and the news about Will and Patrick being ineligibile was reported BY ME, right here on this board well before anyone else outside of a few BU insiders knew about it.
Even hours later after Patrick & Will didn't play at DePaul, there were rumors swirling but nobody actually had it right as to what had happened, except for my report which was posted on this board before any other report, anywhere.

Not that this really matters, but I know for a fact that the trainers and BU personnel knew about the pending suspensions quite a while before the DePaul game.

You know what stinks about this?

Apparently someone in the Athletics Department offices is leaking info and swearing them to secrecy.

If I get info like this, I keep my mouth shut. I wouldn't need to be considered the 'inside man'.

If there is a leak in the Athletics Dept offices... I would suspect someone might be walking on thin ice with their job. Because if I were KK, I wouldn't tolerate this kinda stuff and I would be sending someone packing.

Sorry to pick on you buf9, but you might want to be a little more discreet with the info you get in the future. Just a suggestion.

(and if you do ever get sensitive info that you want to pass on - maybe a PM to a couple people on the moderating staff first, swearing secrecy, and asking suggestions for how to release the info if at all)

It could be the players themselves that might be leaking this too, so let's not put it all on the athletic department. College kids generally aren't too good at keeping secrets.

I think they knew about an issue of possible suspensions, but right up until the DePaul game, I believe the insiders at BU believed the NCAA would back of and NOT suspend the kids.
As you know, Patrick and Will played in BOTH exhibition games which they should NOT have if they were facing suspensions.
NCAA suspensions include those exhibition games, too.
If the trainers suspected possible suspensions, I still think they were going only on rumor and didn't know for certain that POB and Will might still be cleared to play.

If anyone knew it well before the DePaul game, then explain why not a whiff of rumor or mention was ever noted anywhere?

Why would anyone on the coaching staff or any of the trainers or athletic department staff want to jeapordize their careers by leaking something of that magnitude, especially when the outcome was unclear? Again, it doesn't really matter at this point, but I tend to believe the people who actually work there.

I know if one ex-player who is still on campus that doesnt know anything about a player not playing this year.

[mplona]

this is an internet message board. its being taken way to seriously. "internet is merely a medium created so that pathetic people can exchange porn and complain about movies" & in this case also to spread sports rumors

:P

BUF 9................I guess your source does have some inside info .........you can post anything the source says in my book!

[bu fan 9]

Big Mike I only report the facts. I am not one to start rumors or spread them.

sounds like joe friday on dragnet. the truth the facts have been in place for some time now.

fact not rumor - ray brown tested positive in march.

ray tested positive after the kansas game. fact not rumor.

if someone had posted that it would have not been a rumor but a scoop. there is a difference between a rumor than a fact.

for example, it is rumored that the white sox's are going to trade one of their starters for an outfielder.

ray brown smoked pot and tested positive by the ncaa. that has never been a rumor, but a fact.

[tornado]

fact not rumor - ...........

I am still having a problem accepting all reports in the paper as facts just because they are in the paper.
I am not disputing this present report, but of course we only know what is being reported.

If we accepted all reports as fact, then we'd all still believe Manual Cass is still coming to Bradley.
