@BShark Because he’s that good? Or because of other reasons?

Bit of both. I’m a big skeptic of Timby until I see it in game.

@BShark said in Arterio Morris:
Seeming like Furphy will definitely be in the rotation.
The prince that was promised.
-
@kuballin10 our guards are silly good. Furphy is a potential NBA guy down the line. Behind Hunter it’s pinch your sphincter. Nothing groundbreaking, but we all saw in PR what we can be.
-
Texas case is donezo. Was always going to happen once the witness recanted and whatnot.
-
Yup, we all know there are different standards if you’re talented enough.
-
@FarmerJayhawk we talking about Hill, again?
-
@Crimsonorblue22 Andy Reid is certainly willing to look past many, many issues as long as a guy can football ¯_(ツ)_/¯

@FarmerJayhawk was kidding around

And there it is
Friday news dump…
-
Might explain why Marko has the inroads to starting
-
And all those decent guys had to witness it. I’m sure their parents are sick.
-
well Arterio good to know ya - -well - -next man up
-
If he’s charged and found guilty everyone involved in bringing him here and admitting him to KU should be fired. Period.
-
The I told you so crowd certainly has the throne today
-
Any more details surfaced on this yet?… wtf is with this guy?
-
Makes me sick, at Morris!

Been sitting on this for a bit. I feel comfortable putting this out there, it’s well sourced. The evening of the incident 3 women were seen going into Terio and Juan’s room. I do not believe Juan was there, but I don’t know that for sure. Given he wasn’t named or suspended I would assume not. Anyway, after a little bit in the room, all three left yelling and screaming.

This means Bill and Goff. Though really it’s hard to argue against…

Yikes. I’m guessing they put Juan with him since hes the most trusted member on the team with responsibility to act as a defacto supervisor and Morris somehow still fucked up.
-
@BShark I have some serious soul searching to do to decide if I watch another game with Bill at the helm.
This was totally avoidable and is so incredibly frustrating.

This is so fucking dumb. Sorry
-
Get him out of here. I was for a second chance but this guy doesn’t get it.
-
@TYOHawk That’s where I’m at.
Bill took him with the criteria of 1 mistake and buh bye
See ya morris it’s over just threw it all away
Teams better without him
-
@BShark
doesn’t Juan have a gf on the bb team?
-
@Crimsonorblue22 This isn’t Juan’s fault….I don’t want his name included. He can’t force another grown man to do or not do something. Could have been anywhere that night but fact he isn’t mentioned says he wasn’t present.
This is morris fault no one else
-
@Kcmatt7 - yeah, KU shouldn’t have given the guy a 2nd chance.
But he’s now failed and should be kicked out immediately. And I mean “kicked”!
-
@kuballin10 I wasn’t saying it was.
-
I think it would be asinine to fire Self and Goff at this point. What makes it look bad is the fact that it just now got released tho supposedly happened on the 26th of august and several people around town knew. Now if it’s proven that they tried to sweep it under the rug. I’d be pushing for their removal immediately. They took a chance on this guy and it blew up in their face. @Kcmatt7 name a D1 coach in football or basketball that hasn’t had bad apples. It happens everywhere and gets swept under the rug at a lot of schools. You never really know someone til you do sometimes. The BTK killer was a well respected man in his community, thought to be a loving father and husband.
-
-
@Kcmatt7 I’ll also add KSU let a player involved in a drive by shooting finish out the season. Alabama let a guy who armed someone with a murder weapon play with zero consequences. If true no question he’ll be gone from this team.
-
@kjayhawks Boy am I glad I’m not a fan of those teams. Would hate to be in a comparable situation …
-
Dang, haven’t had a chance to check the news til now. That sucks for all involved.
Sure hope for all involved that the allegations are unfounded. He’s suspended, so not sure if it’s Self reading the room, or he knows. You figure if he knew, he’d be booted, not suspended.
Self sure took a chance by bringing in Arterio. As I mentioned in Wissox’s thread, public perception about the program and Self has to be very low now. It could get even lower if the IARP ruling comes in with bad news.
Pressure for Self to resign? I hope not. He does seem like he’s title or bust lately.
I guess it’s piling on to continue to say this was a bad signing. Getting worse.

I really wasn’t even going to mention him but they are room mates. I don’t think any other members of the team were present. People also need to remember there is a difference between witness and eye witness.

A girl in Lawrence may have been raped by a guy we knew had DV issues and still recruited him. I’m sorry I’m not the forgiving type.
-
unfortunately , I don’t see any option other then him being let go. -Just not a good look , the kid has some issues hopefully he is innocent at THIS POINT though doesn’t look good and with KU’S history of things just not a good look.
Rreally good talent but not putting it to use IF this turns out to be true , with the whole thing that ended up being dismissed before and now this - -not can’t afford this on the team - just not good
-
@kjayhawks I agree it would be asinine to fire Self and others. They did their investigation. They knew they were playing with fire. And we’ve discussed the fact that Self has a penchant for trying to give kids a second chance. Sometimes this works out; sometimes not.
The administrators were probably not trying to sweep anything under the rug. I don’t think they have a legal responsibility to make this (allegations) info public (until the justice process is completed and a conviction is made.)
However, most of us have a sense that wrong-doing by certain individuals or institutions needs to be made available to the public sooner, even before the justice system has engaged (and throughout the process). That work is typically done by journalists. It’s a double-edged sword, of course because not all the facts are available early and that can lead to speculation. Responsible journalists will work the leads for a while and gather facts before they publish, which is probably why the delay (Aug 26 to Sept 15) on this story.
Anyway: I’m sad and angry at Morris all at once.
It would be interesting to get Self’s perspective if he will ever take another risk like this on a kid. The stakes are very high for the program. But, of course, if he ever takes a risk that pays off, a kids’ life is changed forever, and one could argue, those are the highest stakes.

I agree. Nitpicking here, but technically, the team may actually be worse without him, but the program is undeniably better without him.

@BShark Thanks for the details “… all 3 girls left screaming… “ wow. To me, that sounds off. so he is accused of raping one of these girls? All of them ? Love to know more details. This whole thing sounds just plain weird . Something not right here.

I definitely agree there are some oddities in the story. That detail was one that stood out to me as well.
Would love to know what security is like at McCarthy. A no visitors policy after a certain time would be wise… I know during my time at KU we had to check people in with IDs and everything after like 10PM.
-
And can Morris be so colossally stupid, knowing that he is under a huge behavior microscope, with any minor misstep and he’s gone, to then force himself on one or all of these women? Sadly like so many rapes in college where it comes down to a “he said she said” case, to do that with that many witnesses?? And the accusation is rape, not indecent exposure, or indecent assault or attempted rape. Rape. Apparently other teammates are also named as potentially corroborating witnesses - not to the alleged rape, but to seeing the women in the dorm at some point that evening. None of this seems to make sense, until we get more details.

Would assume one of them is the primary accuser/victim. Wish I had more details but I got it from someone that lives across the hall from Terio and Juan.
I can ask about the current rules if you’d like.

Yea, i wanted to say something about the three girls left screaming thing earlier, but thought it’d be in bad taste. Something does sound odd here. Not sure we’ll ever know the details unless one of the girls starts "X"ing about it.
How is McCarthy set up? The players each have private rooms? Guess it doesn’t matter, but with four people in there, something sounds weird indeed.

They share with another player typically.

I’m curious as to whether it potentially opens up a scholarship.

@Gorilla72 i think since classes already started it’d be too late
