since James Bell might be out the year with an injury they only have 9 scholarship kids to begin with..and one of them is Mo Sutton, so really like..8 1/2...
so this would be a pretty big blow if he's out for any substantial period of time.

This has definitely been one of the crazier off seasons in big east basketball. It's been a real war of attrition between Suspensions, Injuries, and transfers.

Word on the street is JayVaughn Pinkston punched a kid and his buddy.They were trying to manage a party at their house. They(the bball team) were outside in the driveway being loud (especially after showing up uninvited) and were told to either shut up or get back inside so the cops didn't come. Brief verbal debate then things calmed down. Then out of nowhere jayvaughn knocked his friend in the face and started swinging at everyone. One kid was unconscious and 2 of them went to hospital and police reports were filed.
Story seems to match what everyone was thinking

"Villanova may be forced to hand down a lengthy suspension and may even remove Pinkston from the basketball program altogether -- or at least make him run a few extra suicides!"

Villanova Statement
On Saturday night, November 6, an incident involving Villanova men’s basketball player JayVaughn Pinkston and several other students occurred at an off-campus location. The University has been informed that the Upper Merion Township Police are charging JayVaughn Pinkston with two counts of simple assault and harassment. Earlier this week, Villanova opened its own internal review to determine whether Code of Student Conduct violations had occurred in this matter. The University is moving forward with this review as quickly and diligently as possible in order to assure fairness to everyone. Until a decision is reached, JayVaughn will not play in games, but will be allowed to participate in other team activities.
Jay Wright added, “JayVaughn is very aware of the seriousness of this matter and how it could impact the team. He understands there is a great lesson to be learned here.”

And that lesson is "don't get caught."

He'll miss some games, but he'll play this year i'm guessing since "simple assault" doesn't usually result in jail time according to nova boards.

Knocking out a Nova kid should probably come with some sort of award. Good work Jayvaughn.
