What the hell type of punishment is a road-game only suspension???

It actually hurts the team more if you think about it. You need all the help you can get on the road whereas your role players can pickup the slack better at home. Very odd punishment though. Can’t say I remember one like it.

You said KD was "mainly the only one". I mentioned BM Sat. and even forgot about Tre Donaldson getting one the same game Sat. Ya'll sure aren't the only ones but don't act like the fighting P's don't show their backside more than most.

Because KD is the only one who “does it after nearly every single play”. It makes even me roll my eyes more often than not lol

The others you mentioned do not, only a few times here and there.

I've never heard of a punishment like this, but I like it because it increases the probability of a loss to a team Michigan might otherwise defeat.

Michigan State and Gonzaga have 2 of the 3 longest active streaks in the country of making the NCAAT. Both are in real danger of missing this year.

Is Mick Cronan gone? I assume a 6-10 record doesn’t cut it at UCLA. IIRC they recently had a great run with 3 straight sweet 16’s followed by a final 4. Success is fragile even with the bluest of bloods.

He’s there and might get a 1-year pass losing Jaime Jaquez and Armani Bailey to the NBA and Tyger Campbell as well.

Trying to figure out how they have 6 losses. Haven't got to see them play yet but they're tough

They’ve been arguably the biggest disappointment in the country. Picked 2nd in the SEC if I recall, a favorite by many to win the conference, and Wade Taylor IV picked as SEC player of the year and they’re staring down the barrel of a 9-7 start.

Didn't they start last year like this tho before going on a run in the SEC tourney?

Last year they had 5 losses before SEC play, then did great in the SEC. Bounced in the first round of the tournament. Two years ago they played well out of conference but did not face anybody of note, then had an 8 game losing streak in SEC play before getting beat by us in the SEC final and missing the NCAA tournament.
