Well I'll be darned. I can't find it either. I was going off what CBB was saying in the other thread. My apologies

[swoopem]

the dude left for a better program plain and simple. It's 2014 not 1980

Two players arrested today. Not a good off-season, to say the least.

Drunk driving a couple of months ago, underage drinking now.....nothing to see here.  Kids being kids.  Not a culture problem at IU.  Not indicative of coach Crean losing the program.  Unfortunately, sometimes students engage in minor rule breaking.   Not indicative of anything to do with the coach.  He can't babysit them 24/7.  The onus is on the student athletes.  Unfortunate that they made poor choices.  If it happened anywhere else, say, Marquette for example, my attitude would be the same.

Sorry, but couldn't disagree more on drunk driving.  Definitely something to see there.  Underage drinking, no problem.  But drunk driving can ruin lives.  End lives.  That is no small matter.

Watching only traditionals? Coach K doing any recruiting for Wojo and MU?

[77ncaachamps]

Wojo...wear the light blue polo, dude.
You stand out among the white polos.
The least they can do is think you're *gulp* North Carolina.

Or wear the gold.
The least they can do is think you're Wichita State!

Uh, I think Denny Crum won his first Ship in 1980 so UL was the better program even in that year

Yeah, he surely doesn't want anyone to think he's from Marquette!

Crum won his first Ship with Scooter and Rodney who were all set to sign with Marquette until the now infamous "Majerus and the Trombone Incident."

Yeah, I would HATE it if we ended up with a bunch of terrible hacks like the Plumlees, Singler and Scheyer. It's not as if those honkies ever won a title for Duke after Wojo helped recruit them.

He should be able to play center.  His dad did.

What was Majerus and the trombone incident?

Scooter McCray was a strong MU lean, if not a verbal commitment, when Rick went to his home to continue to show the love from MU.  When Rick got in the house, Mrs. McCray who knew Rick well said that Scooter was home and go on up to his room.  Somehow the door was opened, and Scooter was apparently involved in an auto erotic exercise euphemistically referred to playing his trombone.  Embarrassment ensued, and Scooter and later his brother Rodney McCray ended up enrolling at Louisville.

What was Majerus and the trombone incident?

Scooter and Rodney were solid Marquette locks. On a recruiting swing back east Majerus dropped by their house in the evening. Their Mom told Rick to go on up to Scooter's room. Majerus burst in on Scooter who was playing the trombone. Majerus was shocked to find Scooter playing his instrument, I guess because spending time with his music meant time away from honing his basketball skills. At the very least Majerus felt that investing not just the time but expending energy on the trombone sapped strength from his basketball.

I'm not sure if Majerus felt Scooter should quit music or what but Scooter was so embarrassed on Majerus discovering him in the act of practicing that he rushed from his room and fled down the stairs. Majerus was equally chagrined by the incident and their relationship was never the same. Scooter then Rodney ended up playing for Denny Crum who must have been less bothered by Scooter's musical interest or perhaps simply was unaware.

The decline of Marquette basketball can be traced directly to Majerus walking in on Scooter practicing the scales.
