So what if kid smoked some were and missed some classes ? This is college and college basketball . If Eddie suspended him for that it's time for Eddie to get fired . He's obviously not committed to winning.

see this is a perfect lesson for those who want to make coaching decisions based on how good one player is or fearing he will transfer. Never hitch your wagons too tight

What the hell is going on? Whatever happened to if you miss class you don't play the next game. TWO WEEKS!

The only home game during this stretch will be TTFP. It will be an extremely ugly to see their fans invade the RAC as we get blown out by what used to be the perennial doormat of the Big Ten. That may be the moment Hobbs finally drops the ax.

Luckily, I think their fan base is pretty depleted as well

Jordan DONE
I might just believe that and think Hobbs will be making the choice because of off court issues.
Eddie's results aren't helping him, but the suspensions will be a big factor when Hobbs looks at RU's future with Eddie in charge.

Corey has to take blame here too. No one is saying anything about that. Second suspension this season. Kid is a great basketball player but maybe this is why the top schools passed.

Hopefully Corey wakes up and learns.

If there is one thing Jordan preaches is acting respectful and doing the right thing on and off the court.

Remember the fans just don't get it

Uhm, there are actually regulations - set by each school - for failed drug tests. Don't follow them and it could be one of many reasons you lose your job.

When the going gets tough, the tough get ... to a new school?

Well, in high school he could just keep transferring -- 7 schools (OK, so it was really 6 plus a second stint at one of the same schools. Uh, Corey does know that it's not that easy to just move on now, right?

Hopefully, the 2 weeks just reflect that this is Strike Two, following up on the "immaturity" issues that Jordan punished him for earlier in the year when he had to come off the bench.

Flood didn't just lose his job because of a 4-8 record.
Jordan now, in my opinion, won't have Hobbs thinking RU MBB players are not helping the team's image by how they need to be disciplined by Eddie.
Might be just two players suspended because of off court issues, but with RU's W-L record and losing as badly as they have some games, that just might be enough for Hobbs to make a change.

It's not just ANY two players , it's our best two players and arguably the only two B1G level players we have.

We gave Eddie credit for recruiting them but I think there are reasons they dropped to us.

Kind of contradicts that he is keeping this team together despite the losses. If this is the same violation of rules that lead to Freeman being suspended then it appears Sanders did not fear the same consequences. Interesting that he got a defined two weeks whereas Freeman's was indefinite. Some will suggest a positive that EJ is instilling discipline but not a good development with your star player.
Freeman was not on the bench Saturday. The two best players getting suspended is hardly a positive sign going forward.

I hope Eddie's check for his B1G build fund pledge has cleared. If not they should deduct it from his severance...

I think your response is aimed at getting a critical response.Sanders got a scholarship to be a student athlete which requires following instructions for acceptable behavior.

Go RU , You think the curse began this year? It began when we desecrated sacred burial grounds in Piscataway with the football stadium and the dreaded RAC. You don't F with native American juju... How many chances are we going to get until they do what the Uni. of Chicago did and shut the whole program down ? We are a joke within a joke. If you think I am trolling I don't really care. I am angry and appalled and after 50 years of being let down, quite sick of it.I am usually the guy who pokes fun at this nonsense but it is no longer funny. Jeez. Enough already..

All that we know for sure at this time is we should all give the points until he returns.
