Arterio Morris

Gah! Arterio Morris I hardly knew ye!
-
-
Charges were dismissed without prejudice due to insufficient evidence.
-
Onward.
-
Hawks could have used him last year and now to hear he wouldn’t have been charged. Insufficient evidence can be interpreted as “innocent”.
-
@Gorilla72 could be interpreted but definitely does not MEAN innocent.

I understand and agree. Although, I wonder if he’ll show back up in Div 1 somewhere now. Good player some coach might take a flyer on.
-
Who will take him? Beard? Texas?
-
Maybe he can play for the KU women’s team as pennance?
-
Ahhh

-
@Texas-Hawk-10 - Yes it can be interpreted in many ways. Most on here considered him guilty.
-
@Gorilla72 Many rapes don’t go to trial. It’s hard to prove and traumatic af.
-
@dylans - I’m aware of that. Just saying Kansas was well and truly screwed but he is now free to attend another school and may do well. I wonder what their fans will say. I don’t know if he is truly guilty or not. It’s now played out and he has no charges against him.
-
F*** Arterio Morris, go play basketball in pelican bay where you belong sumbag.
-
@Gorilla72 They can have him. I wouldn’t care if he played like Mike, Arterio is dog shit stuck to big Jays shoe. Scrape it off and move on until the stench wears off.
-
@dylans nice choice of words
-
Its funny that the first 3 articles that come up when i google arterio morris refer to him as “ex-kansas player arterio morris”. Cant get the stink off, he’s been hangin round for days…

Ugg. Too true and he didn’t play a game that counted for KU.
Need to amend those articles to say Ex-Texas Longhorn (SEC! SEC! SEC!!!) player Arterio Morris.
-
Time for KU to disown Ben McLemore now.
-
I’m glad we ditched him immediately. It’s easy to put on rose-colored glasses and see him as a big help to our team where we needed it most. But realistically, he would likely have caused other problems… team unity… other run-ins with the law… a further tarnish of our school’s reputation.

Well rather guilty or not Ben hasn’t helped the Ku reputation either now- - - -So hard to believe but with all the crap at Kentucky they still managed to find time to make a post on it
-
@Texas-Hawk-10 mmmmm - listen to what I’m saying now.
If the allegations are true, it’s awful and he should pay for his actions.
But - he was great for KU. And he had no issues whatsoever here. And he’s been gone 11 years.
-
At least Ben’s an “Ex-Blazer”. Sad to see the story, no matter what actually happened. He was a favorite. I’ll never forget the snoopy dance.

Unless I hear differently, I’m standing by Ben.
-
I don’t see the connection of Ben and KU’s reputation. This allegation happened after his Kansas days. Morris is a different story. We brought him in after his first allegation. Then, you would think he would have totally dedicated himself to being clean and playing basketball, but he got in trouble here, too. Compare him to JWil. JWil is the example of a player making a mistake then truly dedicating himself to fixing his life. Back to Ben… more needs to come out but I believe in his character as described by Traylor. His comments seem to be inline with someone responsible to facing the music. This could be anything…

Understand. I hope you not thinking I’m thinking he is an idiot . All I was showing was that even with all THIER problems that they ( Kentucky ) are having right now- - -just going to show how petty their fanbase is as even going through what they had going on they - - stilled tried to find something - - - -anything that they could find negative about KU. just goes to show how infatuated UK are with KU . People like this don’t give a rat’s ass how long it’s been since they were connected with KU , rather it’s a day- -a week - -a month - -a year – a decade the way they look at it whoever STILL had that connection with KU, that’s all they look for. Then they take that and run with it trying to make the Univesity look bad.

@jayballer67 I take no shit about propriety from UK fans, whose response for decades to the package-of-money-broke-in-a-sorting-facility scandal is a picture of Alfred E. Neumann saying “What? Me worry?”
-
Ben gets the benefit of doubt here, never seen or heard of anything like this from him
-
@jayballer67 they seem to forget Rupp’s roots.
