Eddren M. not good!!!

[Fyrebyrd]

good...now i dont have to keep this a secret anymore

[SFP]

There are levels to everything. Some of this stuff has gotten a little out of had. I don't know about you but I knew better in college than to get arrested on dope charges.

New better or just not dumb enough to get caught! EM things happen and I hope you get your act together. You had a nice scholarship and that is the sad thing. This is not the end of the world.

To blame JL for this is ludicrous! These are adults that should no better. Just maybe a few posters will stop throwing stones in glass houses.

[Braves4Life]

I have heard rumors about this for awhile...

I hope this is a wake up call.

But I doubt they were in the sleeping bag with EM and the girl. Sounds like the police let one "obvious" charge slide in Eddren's case.

Extremely disappointed in Eddren McCain.

Wonder if this also contributed to his not playing.

Yes...EM should have known better.


I haven't heard anyone blame JL....but when you are in charge of a program and things like this happen your name WILL be brought up.

He's the captain of this sinking ship.......

[Da Coach]

Bradley's is not a sinking ship,though considering some of the ridiculous rumors some people have been trying to promote the last 24 hours its apparent the BU haters and JL haters are getting desperate.
This is a case of one player with serious behavior issues. Coach Les acted correctly and decisively. Its unfortunate, and I wish the best for EM. He obviously was hanging with the wrong crowd. Unless someone has evidence that any other player was involved, please refrain from making suggestion that there are.

[tornado]

no different that recent arrests at ISU, SIU, and even UNI ....this is a case where a young man needs to get his life straightened out and take advantage of a new chance somewhere else...

I agreed with all that you said except the serious behavior issues. EM on all accounts has been a good student who made a very unfortunate mistake. Serious issues are for those that do bodily harm to others like rape, shoot or mug.

Sad that a drug less harmful than alcohol gets so many in trouble. Fishy that this happens a day or two after he leaves. I wonder if he was targeted because of his decision to leave.

[bu fan 9]

He was bad on the court and off the court.

[Da Coach]

One more comment- It's ironic that Tennessee just upset Ohio State to advance to the Elite 8.
The irony is that 3 of the key players helping Tennessee to win the game were Brian Williams (9 points, 12 rebounds), Cameron Tatum (11 points), and Melvin Goins (4 points, 4 assists, and good defense on Evan Turner).

Those 3 players were involved in an incident less than 3 months ago where they were arrested during a traffic stop when they were found to have drugs and illegal weapons in their possession.

But unlike Coach Les, Coach Bruce Pearl suspended the players for a couple games, then reinstated them and went on with the season as if nothing had happened. Those arrested/reinstated players have now helped lead Tennessee to the Elite 8. Congratulations to Bruce Pearl and tennessee for their accomplishments.
But also, congratulations to Coach Les for taking a stronger stand in favor of discipline in a case that involved less serious charges than the Tennessee incident.

I agree and I doubt if he was targeted. It's Peoria after all. California plans to put a measure on the ballots to legalize it and if passed what a win fall of taxes and not throwing people in the slammer for a non-violence act.

I hope you are joking. He was arrested at 4:25 am Tuesday morning. He was dismissed from Bradley sometime late Wednesday or early Thursday morning, acccording to the Coach. I think you have the sequence of events backward. I would guess his dismissal may have had something to do with the events of Monday night/Tuesday morning.

No, I'm not. Its Marijuana. A drug with less negative effects on the body and less dependence than alcohol. And quite often do I stay up until 4-5am on a weekend. They werent harming anyone.


re: SFP - California will save hundreds of millions of dollars just in reduced prison costs alone.

I think DaCoach was responding to your comment about the police potentially targeting Eddren since he decided to leave. That's not what happened since the arrest happened first and then Eddren's leaving was announced.
