May not be the character that Buzz loves.

Is that a serious suggestion?

I hear LaceDarious Dunn might be available, too....

Monterale Clark is still out there for the taking.

Last time I checked Monty Clark has never been convicted of anything.....just sayin.

Neither was Tom Delay...OJ Simpson went a long time sans conviction as well.  Doesn't mean I want them representing

This is my take on the issue, not necessarily fact, but just my opinion.  I know the 2L who represented Willie.  This is a case of SLU trying to "make a point" over a non-issue that was blown up due to shaky allegations.  Look at who punished them:  The Student Conduct Board?

I've spoken with the bartender at Humphrey's where the night started out and several students who were at the Grand Forest Apt party where it happened (in the bedroom).  There is a reason the alleged victim has left the university:  no one believes her, and no one is on her side.  

Police refused to prosecute, no one at the party had any reason to believe the two players took advantage of her, and Reed insists he did nothing in the face of his career at SLU being over.  He's indignant for a reason:  it's not his fault she thought she could handle two basketball players at once, but obviously couldn't.

Cat must be extremely ancient by now. But hey, if he can still ball, I'd lay a schollie on the dude. At least it wouldn't be wasted on a walk-on. Common knowledge that we need bigs. Still remember his gutty performance on one leg for Knicks in the '69 playoffs.

I'm not sure if this is remotely true, but I heard Kentucky is interested in Clark. Did this have any legs?

I don't know, but they need bodies, especially ones that might stay for more than one year.  It's unlikely that Calipari would have any qualms about the past.  It'll be interesting to see how far Kentucky will let him go in recruiting with the character issue.

Even if the version you heard is true, I can't see Buzz being interested.  A consensual two on one at a party is not the type of legal behavior that Buzz would tolerate.

Calipari saw his rap sheet and thought "Sh*t is that all?"

I was thinking the same.
