Wow. That’s a blow to them. But the cynic in me says they’ll be back on the court by conference season.

Not sure how good NIU was going to be, but this hurts.
There were those who gave Whitford flak for missing on German, maybe that was a good thing. Of course we lost two good guards last year for off court problems, but it looks like that happens to everybody, a risk that bigger programs take with even better players. Risk about character and academic risk have to be taken.

You have to take risks at our level. As far as German is concerned, Whitford missed on him. The kid is a hell of a player, maybe the best scoring guard in the conference regardless of his legal issues. What he and his team mates did is not acceptable. You hope to create an environment within your program where things like this are not welcome. We will have to see what Montgomery and NIU ultimately decide on discipline once the case is decided in court.

German is also being charged with battery for an unrelated incident. Whit would probably be getting blasted for that.

What a great idea....to go steal stuff from a store while you're awaiting trial on four counts of battery.
You know me, I don't like to be judgmental, but could it be that, just maybe, German is a dipshit thug idiot?

Yeah, he's probably just misunderstood. A lot of violent thieves are.

He’s a nice quiet kid. Never gave anyone any trouble. It’s because he’s a poor underpaid college athlete.

Looks like the suspensions are over as German put up 30 points tonight and Thorpe had 9 against Oral Roberts; the JUCO, Mateen, played but did not score.
