Dalton, James, Marshall, Moemeka, Conway suspended

Much of this boils down to our society's wont to tiptoe around accountability and blame. Instead of blaming youthful indiscretion or claiming their only mistake was getting caught, someone (like Martinez) needs to be held up and called the poster child of STUPIDITY. Not "bad choices", not "kids being kids", but "Stupidity" with a capital "S".
 
The only thing that makes sense is failed drug tests. This can't be a criminal act where they were all caught together and given exactly the same charges/punishments.


i really wanted to see Justin James as a primary option. Obviously they already planned to throw Marshall away, but I was excited for the futures of the other 4

I don't really like bringing up individual names but with all the hype that came in with Justin James it hasn't been hard to see that the last few games he doesn't seem to be in tune with whats going on.

I'm not going to say he looks like he's still in a fog of weed but before this suspension thing came out I had noticed that he seems to just be going thru the motions. There hasn't been the drive and magic of someone with his talent.

Can't imagine doing dope and trying to play at this level. These guys have to pull their heads out and grow up!
 
Is there one point eve of legitimate evidence that this is drug/weed related or is it pure speculation that has become "fact?"

Pretty sure it pure speculation as Shyatt said nothing more will be said about the situation. It could very well be under age drink too....or something completely different.
 
I don't care if our team is a bunch of stoners as long as they bring it on the court, in the gym, and in the classroom. I think pot is a lot less harmful then alcohol. Functioning alcoholics/functioning stoners are everywhere (doesn't mean it's right). If they are stoners they need to vape because that's much easier on their bodies then actually combustibly smoking. Be careful though and listen to Sam Jackson in this video.

What doesn't sit well with me at all though is the timing of this. With literally only one week left in the season and the most important one at that, our team fucks up hard off the court somehow. How are they not entirely focused on the MWC tourney at that point???? For our own players to not be taking that seriously is disturbing. Dudes should be in the AA practicing. I could see how Moemeka and Conway could be pulled into this because they aren't even playing, but the others????????? Are they holding this sign :whocares: Ain't no good. :(

One other thing. Are our players just opening blazing around Laramie???? Damn it's still Wyoming fellas :wtf:
 
Lots of rampant speculation being taken as gospel... Does anyone have concrete proof of weed? If not lets cool some of this talk of weed.

Do you have one ounce of proof to back up this post? Posts like this are exactly how unfounded rumors become "fact" for others.

I was told alcohol, MIP's.
 
This thread is a crack up. So many conclusions without any substantial facts.

Speculation, speculation, speculation. :whistle:

No proof whatsoever! Rumors are flying but that's all we'll get really. Post still stands as my point of view and the 2nd half is absolutely true no matter how you slice it. Alcohol, weed, or whatever other bullshit went down...these players didn't take their responsibility heading into the MWC tourney seriously. I'd still be most lenient in my point of view if it was just them busted for smoking a J playing a pick up game or something like that but not that lenient at all because like I said the timing of this is extremely frustrating.

I remember Josh Davis and Chris Mac showing up at a party I was at back in the day. No one on the team drank

I've heard they all got busted with the green. Apparently Dalton is the team's dealer, and has an operation slinging all over the front range and finally got caught

I hope this was a joke. :willybs:

It was.....you are a good fisherman. :lol:

When I was in school...during the Dembo years, you would always see players at parties. I'd see them at the bar the night before games in some cases. I remember this young stud by the name of Marco Flemming (true freshman) talking shots while dancing in a bar.

What I think we have here is Shyatt holding his players to a higher standard.

Marco Flemming. Wow, that brings back memories. He was supposed to lead us to the NCAA's.
During the same era, a certain player scored 49 after smoking some ganja before the game.

He didn't last long in Laramie.
 
In the early 80's before Dembo, Wyoming had two basketball players that were regulars at the bars during the season. Jim Renner was 7' and Mark Getty was 6' 10" so you couldn't miss them when they were present. Renner liked to drink two fisted, with a pitcher in both hands. Grades caught up with Renner and injuries plus grades got Getty.
