ive still got stuff that will be occupying my time for the next week or so, and i will be back for the conference tournaments. but ill be damned if i go out on some bullshit like last night.
nothings worse than capping a game inside and out. doing the necessary due dilligence.
........ and then having the leading scorer and rebounder in the horizon walk out on the team before the final two home games of his career.
completely mind-boggling.
As if playing tough but losing to Loyola, 67-63, on Wednesday night at the Wolstein Center was not hard enough to deal with, the Vikings lost without senior forward Omari Westley. CSU's leading scorer, one of the top players in the Horizon League, was not in uniform because he decided to jump the Vikings' ship
"There was a violation of team rules and the young man didn't agree with it," said CSU coach Mike Garland, whose club dropped to 9-15 overall and 6-9 in the league. "He took off, left, and I haven't seen or heard from Omari in the last two days.
"I'm supposed to meet with him tomorrow and we will discuss his future at CSU for the remainder of the year. That's all I'm going to say."
CSU Sports Information Director Brian McCann said legal issues were not involved.
Westley, a Shaw High graduate, could not be reached for comment. He came in averaging 17.1 points, good for third in the conference, and was the league's leading rebounder at 8.3 boards per game.
playing this one tonight. im sure stewart of pruitt will sprain an ankle going through layup lines in pregame.
southern cal (+5.5) over ucla
trojans had dominated this series recently until an epic fold job a few weeks ago at home allowed ucla to come back from an 18-point halftime deficit. now i know that 'usc hoops' and 'pride' is a bit of an awkward juxtaposition but i think they'll atone for that collapse. trojans actually have played pretty well the last 3 games. im content to make usc my last play for the regular season.
