Jordan McRae suspended

Jordan has talent and skill, but also has a huge ego and a big mouth. Hope he can mature and become an asset to the team in the future and not a hinderence.

Knoxville doesn't have the facilities to bring in an higher grade of athlete. I'm not talking about the gym...I'm talking about the strip clubs. If Haslam would buy Club LeConte, turn it into a strip joint, recruit on campus for talent, then we'd see the Shelby's and Knights of the game filter into UT!

The ball just ain't cutting it.

You do realize that between the basketball and football team there are over 100 kids right? Over the course of a year I'm going to guess every school has a few kids that get suspended.

This according to Griff.

A source on the team, speaking on the condition of anonymity because they lack the authorization to speak publicly on the matter, said McRaeÂ’s suspension is a result of a verbal altercation with a teammate on the team bus in Hartford.

Do you think he may have gotten up in Scotty's grill for being so lackadaisical? If that's what happened he's a goner. No one goes up against the golden boy Hopson.

Or it could be they were busting jokes as they ALL like to do and he started in on "Daddys Boy" it'd be hilarious if that was who the altercation was with. I'm sure McRae roasted on Juniors game and Junior came back with "I get more minutes than you".

I don't think McRae came to UT to ride the bench. He was a top 30 national recruit and before the season started it looked like he was going to challenge Tatum for a starting spot. Not sure what happened, but Pearl/Jones better tread lightly here because we are going to need this guy in the future and it seems like he is very unhappy.

So who was the fight with and what was it about? Does anyone know? Or is it speculation?

Yeah, a shooting guard who can't shoot will fix everything.

From what I've seen, he reminds me of Tatum, but doesn't shoot as well. He would have to drive to the basket to have any real threat of scoring. Jones seems to be the only thing we have coming in that could actually help this team.

I'm just glad that Pearl let McRae know that he will not put up with inappropriate behavior. This program does not tolerate any bad language or disagreement among players. The cardinal sin would be to lie. At least he didn't do that or he would have been permanently kicked off the team.

Oh, the irony.

EDIT - Nevermind, I see the sarcasm now...

Just read on GVX that McRae was suspended for his foul language used on the same bus that some donors were riding on. Did I read that correctly??? I have been to several games where I can hear Brian Williams cussing up a storm, and there are donors who sit on the floor at games, right??? Or, he is being suspended for something else? but why the cover up? With all the drama surrounding this team it is no wonder they are struggling to win games. I tell you, this season is one for the books. Sheesh!
