Sounds like the JAR staff needs to do some creative editing and go old school, blasting "Domo Arigato, Mister Robotham" when appropriate?

Tree gets suspended every November. Nothing to see here. He will be back.

The Cheatham Family will be going. We hoping to meet some of you guys :-) My husband has us staying at Springhill Marriott in North Charleston. Looking forward to seeing everyone.

It is very disheartening to read about this incident, the speculation about it and then the possible results which will come from it. Obviously, nothing good can result from such an event other than all of us realizing that none of us are perfect. Hopefully, we are thankful that most of us did not live in the fishbowl that these young student athletes do and that the overwhelming majority of them are great young men and women. With that said, I am in no way excusing what has happened in the past nor am I excusing whatever happened this past weekend. I have confidence that a complete investigation is being performed and that a just conclusion will be reached. We should stop speculating about this matter and let the situation play out. I was watching a college basketball half time blabberfest this weekend and I believe it was Fran Fraschilla that stated coaching D1 basketball isn't so much X's and O's rather it's about "crisis management"; no truer words have been spoken. Locker room leadership amongst the players will be even more important than it normally is. Some of our current players experienced the whole AA failure and hopefully replicate that years seniors mental and emotional toughness to win the MAC championship despite that debacle. Yes, this is another blemish on this program but it is also an opportunity for the team members and coaches, who had nothing to do with these incidents, to demonstrate their character and abilities while this situation reaches it's conclusion. Rise above the disappointment, Go Zips!

Any chance they have some talent at offensive skill positions? I know some coaches familiar with the area that can use some on their team

It's amazing what I'm reading on these post. Just because you lose one player does't define the team as a whole. This team needs to refocus and come together as team to win games. I know Tree is a beast on the boards but I feel we do have a team that will surprise all of us at the end. Instead of all the negative remarks let's get behind these players, coaches and support them with positive remarks. Every player will have a role to play and maybe this is what they needed. Because the focus just won't be one player but as a TEAM.

Laryea's 7th yellow card was stupidly earned. Jaw-jacking at the ref.

One game at a time; Zips have to beat tOSU first, but on the subject of Zips midfield, I think we have an additional concern. Richie Laryea is sitting on a total of 7 yellow cards. 1 more and he reaches the 8 for the post season and will be out another game. I would hate to face ND without Souto and Laryea. https://www.ncaapublications.com/p-4320-2014-and-2015-soccer-rules.aspx 12.11.2 Postseason Games. Caution accumulation will carry over into postseason play, which includes conference tournaments and the NCAA tournament. Players or coaches participating in postseason play will receive a one-game suspension when a total of eight cautions have been accumulated. Further, each three additional cautions shall result in additional one-game Suspension. Moreover, if the total is reached in the final postseason game of the season, the player(s), coach(es) or bench personnel shall not participate in the first scheduled game(s) of the next season.

Please shut your mouth when referencing Q. You don't know what happened that night in the apt or at the club. Thanks. Go zips

Perfect. And acknowledging what Keith has accomplished with many of these young men has not been emphasized enough in this discussion.

That's how bad our schedule has been. And unfortunately we've been even worse. Frustrating knowing the opportunity was out there for 8 or 9 wins.

You keep throwing this "he hasn't been charged" crap out. Was Ray Rice ever charged by his wife? You do realize many athletes are friends with one another? Especially the men's and women's bball players. They go out together. Sina, and the whole women's team for that matter are a great group of girls. The last thing she/they want to do is make something out of this if they don't have to. Its apparent they had to, so I know about all that I need to know to reach a conclusion.

With all due respect, please go away then. If you aren't supporting this program when things are bad, I don't want you around when things are good again. Josh Egner, Alex Abreu, Quincy Diggs, Nick Harney, and Demetrius Treadwell - five players in eleven seasons (and Diggs returned matured and humbled and graduated from UA, so really four). If you want to focus on those four guys and ignore Nate Linhart, Brian Walsh, Dru Joyce, Nick Dials, Zeke Marshall, etc. - and current guys like Jake Kretzer, Noah Robotham, Reggie McAdams, Antino Jackson, etc - that's your choice. If you want to believe these guys aren't better when they leave than when they arrive, you are entitled to that opinion, although I strongly disagree. Every program in America is going to have disciplinary and/or legal issues pop up. My concern is how the university and program respond, and ours do so in a swift and stern matter. I hope you're just upset and you reconsider, but if not, best wishes to you finding a new program to follow.

Thank you for the laugh, and on Friday it did not suck LOL.

. . .AND THE VIDEO FEED SUCKS! Hopefully, that made you smile at least a little, 71. Calm down or you're going to have a coronary, dude.

1 ) I apologize for anything I've said or may say in the future that may be damaging to anyone else. 2 ) There's always fine lines between being invited to hang out and going too far(this is not a speculation, it's just a generic term off for anything in life). 3 ) I'd rather have UA and the athletic department take action than to be immoral about the situation. All I can base my opinions off of is by looking at past history. And past history tells me that Ms. King would be kicked off the team if she did anything wrong. Look at friday night's game for example. A women's basketball player was suspended for that game due to "violation of team rules". In fact, Coach Kest didn't even allow her to be on the bench. It was probably something like a missed class or something. The women's basketball program holds themselves accountable for everything. So that's why I do not agree with you that there is more to this than what you think there is...

WE are the ones who should be hosting not them!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Now that's an a$$ kickin! Nice work guys.
