March 20, 2014

FSU basketball has released junior college signee Cinmeon Bowers from his National Letter of Intent.

The Chipola College prospect is regarded as one of the top Juco players in the country. He was arrested in January for allegedly eating marijuana in order to conceal it from police officers during a traffic stop.

The Seminoles announced that they released Bowers from his NLI on Thursday but did not provide a reason why in the press release.

FSU now has three players signed in its 2014 recruiting class and could be looking at adding a couple more recruits. The Seminoles have been hurt by a lack of depth this season, provoking coach Leonard Hamilton to reevaluate his recruiting philosophy and how he divvies up scholarships in specific classes. FSU (20-13) has missed the NCAA Tournament for two consecutive years and will face Georgetown Monday at 7 p.m. in the second round of the NIT Championship.

That's probably why I asked the question of "what else did he do?".

Here is another guy that is perfect for Pearl ...

http://nypost.com/2014/04/04/two-arrests-in-one-day-gets-missouri-player-suspended/


COLUMBIA, Mo. — Missouri basketball player Zach Price is suspended from the team after being arrested twice for allegedly assaulting his roommate and a woman.

Columbia police say both incidents involved the same victims.

Columbia Police Sgt. Joe Bernhard says the victims reported that Price rammed their car at least twice Wednesday afternoon during an argument. The investigation of that incident wasn’t finished until Thursday afternoon. By that time, Price already had been arrested a second time on suspicion of third-degree assault and third-degree domestic assault for another confrontation with the victims.

ESPN.com reports the incidents involved Price’s roommate and Tigers teammate Earnest Ross.

Missouri Coach Frank Haith said after the first arrest that he was “very disappointed” with Price and will discipline him accordingly. The university said the second arrest did not change Price’s status.

Price sat out last season after transferring from Louisville.

We've had threads on this guy.  He does not want to return to Milwaukee.  So, even if Marquette wanted him, it would be for naught.

Trayvon Reed to Auburn in December

New Auburn coach Bruce Pearl has added yet another high-major talent with former Maryland signee Trayvon Reed committing to the Tigers.

The 7-foot-1, 240-pound Reed said he will attend Elev-8 Academy in Florida this semester and plans to join Auburn in December after finishing up academic requirements.

"I just need one credit," Reed said. "Then I'll be able to play for Auburn in December."

Reed was not admitted to Maryland after an incident earlier this month in which he was arrested for second-degree assault, second-degree assault of a police officer and theft under $100.

"I can't blame anyone for my mistake," Reed told ESPN on Thursday. "I made the mistake and I've beat myself up for it. I didn't even know if I'd ever get a second chance, but I'm thankful to Auburn for giving me another opportunity."

Reed, who was ranked 84th in the country by ESPN.com, was arrested after two plainclothes officers saw him stealing a candy bar. Reed tried to run away, but the officer grabbed him -- and Reed resisted the arrest.

"I was under the influence at the time," Reed admitted to ESPN on Thursday, saying he had consumed alcohol prior to the incident.


Reed said he also considered Baylor, but chose Auburn due to Pearl's track record.

"I know his history of winning," said Reed, who grew up in Mobile, Alabama. "It's also a chance for me to go back home -- and I can learn from a former NBA player in Chuck Person."

Pearl, whose three-year show-cause penalty from the NCAA concluded this past weekend, has already assembled an impressive recruiting class. He has landed a pair of Top 75 players in the Class of 2015 -- Danjel Purifoy (ESPN, No. 50) and Horace Spencer (ESPN, No. 75) -- as well as top junior college guard T.J. Dunans.

The Tigers also will have former Marshall standout Kareem Canty, who averaged 16.3 points and 5.5 assists as a freshman last season, eligible in 2015-16. Canty will sit out this season due to transfer rules.

Auburn coach Bruce Pearl has landed another Top 100 player in the Class of 2015.

Just days after securing a verbal commitment from wing Danjel Purifoy (ESPN, No. 50), Philadelphia power forward Horace Spencer committed to the Tigers.

Pearl met with the 6-foot-8.5, 210-pound Spencer at 12:01 am on Sunday -- as soon as the coach was allowed to finally talk to recruits.

"It was the perfect situation for me," Spencer said. "They offered me the opportunity to start at the four-spot."


Spencer is ranked 75th in the country in the senior class by ESPN.

Maybe I am picking nits, but "promising" a recruit he will start and "offering the opportunity to start" are just a bit different.

I think every recruit has the "opportunity" to start.

The only bad thing that has happened to Bruce Pearl in the past 5 months is that he took the Auburn job on March 18th and a couple days later Buzz Williams left MU.  Pearl would have cut off both nuts, sold a kidney and added breast implants to coach at Marquette.

The truth is MU is better off with Carolyn Kieger as the Head Coach.
