But also stupid, perhaps, is taking ~30 student-athletes to China in the middle of the semester, right before their season starts. I mean, how many classes are they allowed to miss and still remain eligible?

Almost all of these programs have an academic person who travels with the team that administers tests, homework, assignments and makes sure that they are watching the video taped classes that they are missing. Most programs have more than one person on staff.slowcat95 wrote:Without a doubt, stupid.i77cat wrote:http://www.espn.com/mens-college-basket ... hoplifting

They need not only a teacher, but a babysitter/bodyguard. Maybe Duane Johnson is available?slowcat95 wrote:Without a doubt, stupid.i77cat wrote:http://www.espn.com/mens-college-basket ... hoplifting

Meanwhile, the Ball family is there as well, filming for their reality show. How long before Coach Alford decides to distance himself from Dad and the kids? Or do these brothers provide such a high-priced meal ticket for the program, that the attendant side-show is worth it?
Of course, if LiAngelo is detained for months in China, awaiting criminal processing, there may grow some distance between the family and the program. Probably not going to happen, though LaVar may need to put up his Big Baller Brand as surety for the Chinese authorities.
