The news arrives today that Robert Morris University has suspended junior guard Karon Abraham for the 2011-12 basketball season. Abraham is the Colonials best player, but he has had several incidents with alcohol related run-ins with local law enforcement, including two within the last three weeks. The University has applied the disciplinary action that they would apply to any RMU student.
I wonder what would have happened had similar circumstances surrounded the best player at a school like Kentucky, Auburn, or Ohio State? I mean, What Would Jim Tressel Do in a case like this?
Anyway, good for my alma mater for setting priorities correctly, and here's hoping that Karon Abraham can get his problems under control and his life straightened out before it careens out of control.
