I will say, out loud, that kids getting in trouble and/or transferring out has been at a refreshingly low level this season and those that have decided to go, appear to be in those age-old situations where they would likely be struggling for playing time.
Hopefully saying this will not be a curse - like when I turn on Gopher basketball. I was out Sunday night with friends and happened upon the Gopher basketball in the second half, as they were up 7 points at the time. I have often stated that things tend to go south any time I turn on Gopher Basketball after it is already in progress. I told my friends "Watch, Rutgers is about to go on a 10-0 run." Well, it wasn't 10-0 but it was a 7-0 run and the game did slip away from that point forward.
