    Trent Johnson said they will not renew his scholarship because he violated team rules.

    He was on TD the other day claiming Harris and Graham would both start and average 10 a game next year, so I'd imagine not.

    i think this will hurt on the defensive side a bit. he has the size and athletism to guard the oppt's 2 or 3 and i thought there was a good chance ctj could coach him up to be a very good defender. spencer is small, farrer is slow and tas isnt quick enough to guard 2s and most 3s on the perimeter. gotta count on a noob, i guess, or more likely, take your lumps.

    That'll hurt an already lean rebuilding year. I hope the frosh can step up early.

    yeah, well, maybe it helps if DG is a cancer - get him off now and open up a spot for someone else who is deserving, who will work hard and is a quality person. F all these young b-ballers who are punks at heart who are just one and done to the nba - it just isn't worth it. the lsu experince is worth a lot more than that.

    that kinda sucks... i mean we could have used him. but like paradiseinc said, if his attitude stinks, could be a plus.

    Unfortunately for us, UK hiring Calipari along with all of his, um, questionable recruiting tactics, shows they're taking off the kid gloves. If Kentucky starts dominating SEC play with one-and-dones, it may force our hand to stay competitive.

    LSU doesnt need to stay competitive with UK. you can win the SECW, finish second every yr in conf and get a very high NCAA tourney seed.
