Louisville suspends Derrick Caracter AGAIN

[Russ Smith]

He had at least 2 last year, maybe 3, mainly over his weight. Now he apparently missed curfew.

Seriously has anybody ever had a more ironic last name than Caracter?

 

[Mulli]

Possible nicknames:

Lax

or

Lo

 

[Rivercard]

And the Pitino era continues to fizzle. Their front court was already thin with major injuries to Padgett and Palacios. Can a team play with 5 guards?

This is getting hilarious, ESPN is now reporting Caracter will be reinstated and may play tonight if he makes his weight. Pitino said he's on track to play but he gained some weight while suspended and has to make his weight limit to play. How much weight can you gain in EIGHT days?

The reports were Caracter missed curfew TWICE in the same day and that's why he got suspended.

Pitino goes on about how much he loves Caracter and what a great kid he is but he keeps making bad decisions. On the one hand they keep suspending him so you can't say Pitino isn't disciplining him, but on the other hand they keep reinstating him so you wonder how serious he takes the suspensions if he keeps being allowed back?
