Sounds like he got in a fight with his roommate and the roommates girlfriend. I suspect the roommate was a teammate. Talk about team unity.

I think he needs to talk to Wes Clark and Shane Rector about getting some of that weed... he needs to mellow out a little bit.

Guys, it is absolutely reprehensible the way you pile on a fine institution like the University of Missouri. Yes, Mizzou's football program has had the most arrests of any SEC football program since 2010. Yes, MU's football coach was arrested for DWI in 2011. Yes, it seems as though Mizzou officials swept rape allegations under the rug. Yes, an MU professor was arrested for breaking into his neighbor's home and fondling him. Yes, Mizzou had an athlete tutoring program that doubled as a sex ring. But, as their athletic department spokesperson said, "People make bad decisions and make mistakes." Sure, SPUMAC has had some problems...but you don't blame a turd for smelling like $h!t. Same principle here... ;)

The picture in the Post misidentifies Zach Price as being from Louisville. Glad to see it doesn't only happen to the Billikens.

He was a transfer from Louisville if I'm not mistaken. The picture could be wrong, but it also could just be from an old picture. I'd look into it before making fun of it.

I'm not sure why Dave Matter felt the need to indicate that Price was a transfer. Aren't they all transfers?

Um... the picture is correct. Price is a transfer from Louisville - where he averaged 1 ppg and 1 rpg. Another big time transfer!

I guess I'm confused since I don't really follow Mizzou. Did Price play for Mizzou this year? If so, why an old picture from Louisville? Seems odd. And I wasn't making fun of it. It was just an observation based on the comments above. Do you work for the Post?

There is, also, some kind of verbal war going on the last few days between with Tony Criswell and his my on one side vs. Criswell's dad over Frank Haith being a scum bag on Paul Finebaum's radio show. Criswell's dad, also, said an assistant coach tried to fight his son.

This is a bright spot for mizzou and mizzou fans. atleast they know they got a physical player for that piss poor/soft front court.

Well, it may not take long for Mizzou to become a typical SEC program merely focused on football at the rate Haith is making the basketball program impossible to support and irrelevant. This makes it easier for me as a fan of both programs, I can now support Mizzou in the fall and SLU in the winter as I finally did this season and not waste any time or money on that clown show Haith is orchestrating.

I'll always be a mizzou football fan. I tried so hard to be a fan of both slu and mizzou basketball, but ever since they turned into thugU around 06 07ish I can not stand that program. I've lost all bit of respect, I only tune into their games bc they are from and represent to a degree the state.

To summarize what has happened to the Mizzou basketball program since selection Sunday:

- Two players arrested and charged with smoking pot. Brief suspensions for each ensue.

- Barely avoids a first round NIT home upset to Davidson in front of 1,000 or so fans.

- Loses to Southern Mississppi at home in the second round of the NIT

- Two juniors declare for the NBA. Combined, they represent 51% of their scoring and in total they will lose ~75% of their scoring to graduation and the NBA (obviously SLU is in the same boat here).

- One graduating player's dad calls a national radio show to complain about Haith. Player and mom later come to Haith's defense on the same show.

- One of their three transfers gets in a fight with his roommate/teammate and is subsequently arrested.

What have I missed?

None of these by themselves is a big deal, but the pattern has to be alarming. At some point the worm will turn and Haith will land some more transfers to keep the cycle going.

I'd love to see a list of all the wrongdoing in the past 10 years.
