you are correct. my apologies. i wasn't paying proper attention.

Don't know a thing or have any inside information as to what happened over the weekend, but have some experience with criminal law (not as a participant...)

What does the student handbook say about lesser offenses; misdemeanors, infractions or violations of the rules not amounting to a crime? (Curfew, drinking other than by a minor, missing a practice, disobeying a coach, we could go on and I don't want to keep tossing out hypothetical examples for fear of spreading fake news....) A felony may require immediate suspension, but do other types of misconduct allow suspension within the discretion of a coach or the athletic department?

If a felony were involved, it is not likely he would be on a plane back to Davis, but more likely he would have been on the way to the local jail...and there would be some public records by now.

Or it could be potential felony conduct and the law enforcement agency was not ready to make an arrest at the time.

Moreover we don't know that there is not a police report. Offense reports take time and are not generally public records.

What I am trying to say is that 'we don't know what we don't know,' and are probably better off waiting until the facts sort themselves out.

None of us want this to be a serious breach of some rule...for the team, the school and mostly for the people immediately involved. On the other hand none of us want UCD to be like Michigan State and see things like this swept under the rug.

There,...clear as mud.

Fingers crossed.

Go Ags!

Let’s pumps the brakes a bit and see what transpires.

I totally agree; but i will say if there was a felony charge there would have been a booking and that would be public record. That there IS NOT is a great sign that this is not the situation at all. So, no further comment until we hear the facts.

Chima Moneke Story, I hadn't seen this 4 minute special, very nice.

Great video story on Chima!

Just saw this for the first time too

Great vids, great story. Hoping this is just a small roadblock for him and it’s nothing too serious. We all make mistakes, we live and we learn. Tough waiting on this one. Let’s see what comes out of this

Does Chima play on? Absolutely no reason now to announce before the SB game. Make SB prep for any situation that plays out. Does anyone know if he is practicing?

I heard Chima and Jalen Canty are on a plane to Australia with a plan for a walkabout to contemplate the consequences of their actions.

I hear the Gauchos lead the UC in underwater basket weaving classes.

This story is from the Davis Enterprise: https://www.davisenterprise.com/sports/reason-for-moneke-suspension-remains-a-mystery/ . It states that the University has not disclosed what Chima did, but the article does note that Coach Les made the decision to suspend him. It was not the result of any University action. Finally, the story states that the University's Judicial Affairs Office in handling the situation and that they are trying to talk to people in Southern California. I presume that means the staff of Warner Center Marriott where the team was staying.

"...As to the length of the suspension, given that there is barely a month left in the season, Les couldn’t provide an answer. But it seems certain that Moneke will not be in uniform for Thursday night’s showdown with UC Santa Barbara at The Pavilion."

Hang in there, guys! You too, Chima ... we're all human.

#AggiePride

Jalen Canty, UCSB's 6'8 big man, has been indefinitely suspended also and it is unknown if he will play on Thursday either.

Basket weaving smack? Really? I'm old too but I don't go declaring it message boards.

Goaags, this is really funny. You should write for comedy shows.

Except that you just did.

Well done Goags, I'll blame it on senior moment.
Since you guys want to compare academics, here you go:
UCSB #8, Davis #12
https://www.usnews.com/best-colleges/rankings/national-universities/top-public
UCSB #18, Davis #26
https://www.niche.com/colleges/search/top-public-universities/?page=2
UCSB #17 Davis #21

Maybe if you guys had paid more attention in your basket weaving classes your arguments would be more water tight.

Ole!

Maybe if you were paying attention you would have noticed that I included UCSB's Jalen Canty, also suspended for some unknown violation of team rules, in the playful walk-about. It wasn't smack, you just have translucent skin.

This an example of thread that has gone really bad. Now we are reduced to Comparing rankings between two of the best public’s in the nation. This is just rediculous. Dig enough and you will find a poll that supports any position you want!

Isn’t gaucho the guy who posted the in depth matchup on the other thread? Nicely done

I'm assuming no Chima tomorrow night?

Gauchofreg and gauchodan are good folks, Goags20172, and they do a great job over on the Big West Boards and the Gaucho forums. I think the back and forth banter isn't meant to be trolling and disparaging.

Gauchofreg asked me to write about the Aggies with respect to the big upcoming game and I appreciated that he wanted the Gaucho fans to be able to know more about the Aggies. I also invited any Gaucho fans to come over to our forum to talk about the game and I like it that our forum is a very welcoming group that isn't interested in talking smack.

I appreciate that you keep us very informed about Aggie baseball and I enjoy your offbeat sense of humor when you're feeling creative.

I'd like for fans of our opponents to feel welcome to come over to our forum and share their thoughts.

It's sure looking that way, 6th. This is a sad situation for everyone especially Chima's teammates. I'm sure they're crushed considering the possibility that he may not get reinstated at all. This team has worked so hard to get to where they are right now and I'm sure they had dreams of going back to the Big Dance. Although that's certainly not out of the realm of possibilities, the path sure has gotten a lot more difficult. It's really such a shame.

Why are we so limited numerically? Roster shows 14, Chima out we're at 13.

Several redshirts. I think we had 11 with Jackson. With Chima and him (any ideas) we’re at 9. Correct?
