What was said on twitter?

Legal or team rules?

 PG = Cooper (No backup ballhandler)

What?

I'm sure All=Ohio point guard Nic Kellogg loves to hear this.

He plays point and shooting guard Love.

Some of your darts hit the target.....but sometimes you're so full of $*&% that you're eyes are brown

Easy gentlemen.  No need for insults.  Kellogg the young is also characterized as a 3 star shooting guard by Rivals.  But he also played point for 3 out of the four years in high school.  Nick when interviewed in April says he prefers the point, but is flexible:  "NK: I’ve been playing point guard all through high school expect for my freshman year. I’m comfortabe with the position and I perfer the one, but I can also play the two. Maybe I could play some at both like I did this past year with Adam Griffin (the son of two-time Heisman Trophy winner Archie Griffin) or I could play a combo guard. I can bring it up or play off the ball."    http://www.collegesportsfeed.com/question-and-answer-with-future-bobcat-nick-kellogg/  Nick is a clearly able and talented at the point.  He can be a great option for resting D.J. 

But let's not get ahead of ourselves.  It does appear from Tweets that Mr. Coleman is not in Athens or participating in the two a days.  Maybe others know the whole story, and hopefully it is only that he just failed to get his act together to get to Athens in time for the scheduled practices -- not a wise choice but hopefully nothing academically or legally improper occurred.  The other guys appeared to be expecting him.  Just speculating, but my guess is that he called the coach and told him he would not make it on time and had  no good excuse.  Coach says if cannot make it on time do not bother showing up and no Bahamas trip for you.  But what do I know?  But speculating on a loss for the season is way too premature.  Frankly, I am tired of all the drama.  If worse comes to worst we will survive.  We will have a lot of talent out there, either way. 

No Love you stand corrected....a direct quote from NK:

I’ve been playing point guard all through high school except for my freshman year. 

I have zero disdain for Love....actually hear he's a nice guy.....but it's not like comparing how you say tomato when you say someone can't or may not do something that he probably can or will.....it's more like saying tomato sounds like rhubarb.

That often happens and is what many long time posters find to be the beauty of this site.

Finally can post the real reason behind Coleman leaving the program. Legal trouble? Nope. Academic trouble? Nope. Doesn't feel like being on the team anymore so that he can pursue a career with a much greater chance of success...the music business. I'm sure he'll be highly successful with his diverse musical stylings.

Ohio Hoops update...Soph. guard Steven Coleman has left the program. Reason? To pursue hip-hop career apparently

EDIT: More updates from Arkley

Re: Coleman. His debut mixtape dropped on the internet on Aug. 8. Training camp, in Athens, started Aug. 16. He simply never showed up.

Ohio hoops coach John Groce confirmed Coleman is gone from the program this afternoon.

And the best of the best...

Want to hear Coleman (aka Stevie Fresh) rap? http://1ststophiphop.com/?p=3671

Something always rubbed me the wrong way about Steven. I don't know what it was, but I always had a feeling that Steven might leave early. Maybe it was a matter of time before he got in trouble for more of the same...one of his songs talks about how he "always keeps one rolled up."

From what I've been able to gather about practice reports, Rico and Nick were going to play no matter what. I think we start DJ, Tommy, and Rico. Nick can be a Bassett-type (not saying he will produce Bassett numbers) where he can either play the point or two guard. Basically I think we have three of DJ, Tommy, Nick, and Rico on the floor at all times. I don't know enough about TJ to guess if he can contribute this year.

I swear I checked the date 4 times to see if it was April Fools... Nope middle of August. I can't even come up with the words to react to this. Unreal.

All I can say is that when he played, he was one of the smoothest, efficient players I've ever seen on a basketball court. He glowed with talent, amazing he didn't get picked up by a bigger school I think.

But besides that, good luck in the music business I hope you find what you're looking for.

Ahhhhhh......

And the circle is complete...no idea the circumstances surrounding Asown's return...but that is called rewarding your student-athletes. Should never have gotten to this point. Asown brings game experience back for his 5th. I love how this is shaking out.
