well this will probably impact tennessee's ranking and may bump us up a spot in the oldspice classic. I mean outside of tyler smith, chism, prince and the incoming hopson who does tennessee have left? they have 2 other top 100 recruits, but i think they lose a lot with out lofton, crews, and ramar smith that's about 30pts per game they lose. with out including other seniors like JJ smith and jordan howell which combined for another 20pts per game. replacing 50pts per game won't be easy. of course it won't be easy for us to replace 33pts per game but i like our chances better.

And to think the Hoyas recruited Duke Crews.

Yeah, I remember some here were pretty disappointed when we didn't get him.
The irony is that in Chris Lofton's article, they mentioned how lucky Chris was to get an NCAA drug test because they don't do any testing at Tennessee. Maybe they changed their policy in response to what happened to Lofton?

Between possible heart issues and now drugs, Crews is relatively untouchable.

Crews issues are far more then what is being reported as well. I just hope he gets his act together before this ends in a messy/ugly manner.

Meh, all basketball players smoke weed, just ask Josh Howard. You're dumb to get caught more than once though--if there's testing and you test positive once, you really gotta cut it out. I respect Pearl for making this move and getting rid of 2 quality players.
Maybe Crews can be reunited with his boy Vernon somewhere. Somebody will give him another chance because he's still got potential to be a good college player.

If Duke's issues were just smoking weed then it's not as big of a deal. The kid needs some help.

Maybe they changed their policy in response to what happened to Lofton? I think the comment in the Lofton article was that his condition would not have been detected by the kinds of tests that Tennessee administers, not that they don't do any testing at all.

Are these issues the kind of thing that could cause a heart problem? Wasn't there a story about Crews visiting a girl in the hospital last season? Something about the girl having a similar heart condition? Its unfortunate. He doesn't seem like a bad kid, drug problems notwithstanding.
