Lots of change going on in the BE this week. Jermaine Dixon the only returning starter for Pitt has rebroken his foot and will be out at least the first two months of the season Junior Cadougan Marquette's prized recruit and the starting PG to be, reptured his achillies tendon and will be out the entire season and typically WV's truck bryant was reinstated yesterday. So mazzulla and bryant are both bakc well before the start of the season. So pitt and marquette get kicked while they're down and Huggy bear's team is back to full strength.

Poor Thunderhorse.
Sucks for Marquette.
I think Dixon -- who really isn't anything special anyway -- will be out for two months period, right? So he'll be back pretty early on, right? Kind of like Chris Wright was his freshman year.
As for Huggy, did either actually miss any games or practices? What's the point?

Another MU recruit, Monterale Clark, apparently was just arrested for sexual assault/rape. The MU message board is not a happy place right now.
Interesting to read the threads on the Cadougan injury. Basically, they go like this:
Saw Cadougan walking around campus with his foot in a walking boot and using crutches That's what they do for sprained ankles, he should be fine Coach said he won't be out for very long Heard players talking like he might need surgery He shouldn't be out the whole year He's out the whole year and may have lingering problems We need a new strength & conditioning coach

Big blow to Notre Dame hoops. Purdue transfer Scott Martin tore his ACL and will miss the season.

Now I have a tough time seeing it. It's terrible for him as well. He just lost a season to transfer, now at least one to the injury and probably at least half a season getting back into playing shape. Can he even get a medical redshirt? Can you go six years in college?

One of USC's starting offensive linemen is a sixth year senior.

Didn't that OU QB who won the Heisman a few years ago get six years?

The NCAA does grant 6 years, but I think they try to limit it to multiple medical redshirts only and not granting medical redshirts after a transfer, even for legitimate injuries. Current Titans TE Bo Scaife spent 6 years in Austin with 2 medical redshirts for knee injuries.

sports.espn.go.com/ncb/news/story?id=4551567Jerry Smith and Terrence Jennings were arrested in Indiana last night and were released this morning. Misdemeanor charges of resisting law enforcement are cited as the charge. I'm chuckling at the idea of jennings running from the cops considering his foot is in a boot. ;D

I read the Courier-Journal's very detailed depiction of the scuffle and even I don't think it rises to the level of a brouhaha and certainly not a melee. I couldn't possibly see charging either Jennings or Smith with a felony simply for shoving an off-duty corrections officer or two. No "normal person" would be facing a felony in the same circumstances and I generally don't believe in showing a double standard for misbehaving celebrities.

Felony charges is one thing - real discipline from the on campus mentor hired to help these kids mature and learn and represent their school is another.
I feel a roadtrip to L-Ville, everyone on the bus gets a "Police" t-shirt...

If anyone's bored and doesn't like baseball Louisville is playing Georgetown College right now on MASN. The other Georgetown is giving them a run down 2 early in the second.

Poor Mason. The kid just keeps getting hurt.
Louisville? I'm just tired of hearing about them. We knew they wouldn't miss any time. However, how many times DO you have to get tased to miss a game? What's the over/under in Louisville? 4? Maybe 5?
