I'm more worried about Bo. I bet coach Johnson is too.

I have a feeling that the suspension is more about Bo concentrating on his class grades more than it is about punishment. After all, he didn't break any team rules about personal conduct and his teammate that got in the fight with Tolliver didn't get suspended.

I like the idea behind the APR rules because it's very rare that players make it in the NBA. I used to cook for an All American from the Hornets that's now out of the NBA.

Basketball athletes, especially, have to get an education primarily.

Yeah, this is true. Especially in the case of Bo, who is basically a 6'2 shooting guard. Not much of a market for those players in the league. Trent Johnson may be doing him a favor.

Hope Bo can come back strong, we'll need him next season. Glad to see our coach has high demands of his players.

Or, he's trying to instill a sense of responsibility on the team, send a message to his players and recruits that he wants them to graduate, and in the same breath, he wants to make sure that the players that can play his way are able to get minutes on the team next year.
