Allen Suspended for Tomorrow Night's Game

Yep, that's right... Greenberg decided to play it safe with the University and the media, so he dished out a one-game suspension for Jeff Allen. Allen was seen flicking off the crowd at the Maryland game after he had fouled out late in the game. Once again, the immaturity of Jeff Allen injures this team, as not only is he good at scoring the basketball, but he's easily our best rebounder. Be prepared for Mike Scott to have a big game, especially on the boards, as he'll be guarded most of the game by the smaller JT Thompson. We will not win the rebounding margin in this game, so the Hokies will need to shoot well and cause turnovers to get a win. Also, someone will have to step it up in the scoring department... my best guess is that JT Thompson will help out in that area, assuming that he doesn't get some quick fouls tossed at him by the refs early in each half. Refs hate JT Thompson. Go Tech! Beat the Hoos!

Not an excuse for his actions (yes he is very childish), but I have to say that I was at the game and the $*&% those fans were saying behind the bench was horrendous.
Young, boneheaded player + classless fan base = bad situation for UVA game

Should have clarified...I was at the game, so I got a slightly different perspective than TV...that's all.

Still dumb, dumb, dumb...

Did you see that Allen Calloway died on Sunday? There's a good story about him on Hokiesports.com
