NEW: The case concerning #kubball's Arterio Morris is closed. The original charge of a Class A misdemeanor for an alleged assault that caused bodily injury to a family member was pled down to a Class C misdemeanor for assault. Jury trial has been canceled. Morris pays a fine.

Only a Class C misdemeanor? Pfft, sounds like team Captain material for KU. 

Apparently the misdemeanor plea was for the earlier assault.

For Arterio Morris it just got real:

Some players take a red-shirt; this criminal will get an orange shirt. Shame on Self and KU for taking him on knowing his Univ of Texas situation.

Trashy unscrupulous coach with no morals?  Face of college basketball….  I really, really dislike him.  Lots of other college coaches just like him, just not as good as he is.  Glad we have Woodson and his character.  Also REALLY LOVE he can now go toe to toe with these cheating SOBs.  Thanks Nil!

Wow, when you actually see it compiled like this, the downgrade in coaching talent in the ACC is blinding. No coincidence that it’s gone from the best conference in the country 5 years ago to probably 4th now.

3 (?) verifiably good coaches, the Mariana Trench, 2 guys at basketball factories, Michael Strahan’s front teeth gap, everyone else?

Well, that’s certainly……vivid. But when you’re right, you’re right. And 1-3 are Guys, no doubt. UNC stone missed on their hire and the real question is how much good will 1 great month gets you. Scheyer’s deal is fascinating. Amaker may never be great, but he’s proven he’s really good and would have done well there. Scheyer might be great, but he hasn’t even proven he’s good. He got out-coached by Barnes so badly that if it was a fight they would have stopped it. If he doesn’t make it happen in the next couple of years, how long before they stop getting the kids they just get reflexively now?

I’m really trying to think of an evaluation process that would create this order. 1-4, ok, but the rest looks like darts at a board. 

How is a guy who's never coached in a Power 5 conference ranked No. 8?

1-4 is at least defensible. After that it looks like pulling names out of a hat. And I know people don’t like Underwood, but if they think he can’t coach I’ve got nothing for them.

I have to admit that Payne is ranked higher than I would have expected. Congrats to him.

Completely random thought ... 

In the past 40 or so years, college basketball has 

added a shot clock
added alternate possession 
added a rule giving players two FTs after 10 team fouls in a half
added a 3-point shot
expanded the NCAA tourney to 68 teams
added a restricted area
added a flop rule 
added instant replay
started paying players 
reshuffled conferences so they're hardly recognizable anymore 
and I'm sure I've missed several

BUT
players cannot still wear numbers that include 6, 7, 8 or 9

I always assumed it was because refs held up fingers to denote the players number
