Erm. Nevermind. 3.4 pounds of weed. Driving. 

Anyone remember Antonio Allen? Didn't get get busted too? A lot of kids these days make some dumb decisions.

A quiz--which is worse--3.4 pounds of weed in your car at 2:00 am, or weighing 416 pounds?

Answer?

Both are very bad news, but for a 25 year old the 416 pounds is a serious cry for help.

Hopefully he finds that help and gets back on the right track. He could be a great example to many if he gets back to working hard and doing good things!

Sadly, when you're 25, weigh 416 pounds, and are dealing weed back in your hometown after seeing just how high-end life can be in the NBA, the odds are not good at all that things are going to end well.

If a former IU player was in the news for this, our program would be getting dragged through the mud right now.

To his credit I am sure he thought he was in Michigan.  Been my running excuse for years.

Worst part is he was in Columbia City which is a town where he didn’t need 3.4 pounds to look like the big man.  I hate to say this, but you are a 6’9” 415 lb black man out in that town at 2 am with 3.4 lbs of weed?  Come on man.  That’s like me hitchhiking on Martin Luther King Blvd in Atlanta at 3 am.  It just isn’t a good life decision lol.

Please note I wasn't saying he is a terrible person i just seen the story thought it was interesting. I am more saying he had a ton of talent and I am shocked this is what he is up to these days.

O$U getting that 2 for 1 Big Ten hole court foul discrepancy. Goodness. The refs hit their quota on Rutgers so they couldn’t call a couple obvious ones.

Rutgers putting it on O$U so the refs come back with an absolutely horrible offensive foul on Johnson. Well done Big Ten, well done.

Rutgers might be pretty good this year. Their coach has done a hell of a job. 

[Loaded Chicken Sandwich 8,694]

Big Ten refs are garbage. 

[HoosierAloha 30,068]

Bardo calling out the officials for the foul discrepancy. Refs finally call O$U for a foul, 30 feet from the hoop after they’ve let O$U be as physical as they want down low.

Big Ten front office is happy!

Big Ten will always get on their knees for Ohio State. 

[Brass Cannon 24,862]

Big Ten refs aren’t bad.  They are very very good at what they do.  Manage outcomes 

[HoosierAloha 30,068]

Ayo doing his best LeBron or DWade after a made bucket. Ref looks right at him and doesn’t call the travel. Officials absolutely asleep at the wheel. Haha

Man, Illinois is in a funk.

The big ten is a gauntlet. Any team can win any night...crazy

Dan Dakich loved to wax poetic about how Big Ten refs had an impossible job, because Big Ten games are always so well attended and there's just no way to give road teams a fair shake when thousands of rabid fans are booing and screaming at you after a call. 

 

Maybe it's time to just admit some of these guys suck at reffing basketball games. Tired of people making excuses for homer refs. 

 

It's every bit as bad at the high school level. Last week, I saw a game where there was a scramble for a loose ball, and after a good 5-6 seconds, the ref finally called a foul on the visiting team. Two players from the home team were laughing as they got up, and the ref who made the call was laughing with them. Shady as sh*t.
