Does anyone know why he's been suspended? Not that I'm complaining with back to back wins but I'd like to know why we are without him...

Trust me "everyone" I know is being "mum"/or they don't know much on the subject. Wish him luck with whatever he does in the future. That could hurt us with depth, unless McEachin/Austin really step up. We'll miss his defense.
Interesting that Gynes and McFarlin left to be back home, wonder what McDuffy did.

This is a disturbing trend indeed. However, excluding depth concerns I believe this makes us a better team we now have 3 scorers on the floor and I believe McEachin can be just as effective on the defensive end.
And Fresh Martell didn't leave, he was dismissed.

I don't know if we can call it a trend though, because the two other guys left citing reasons they wanted to be closer to home. Can't fault them, especially when one lives in Australia and the other in Iowa. I wonder if Greenberg is going to continue to throw out there this line-up: PG Johnson SG Thomas SF Martin PF Lynch-Flohr C Parakhouski or if he's gonna bring in McEachin instead of Martin.

holy crap, losing players left and right, now a starter out. i assume when mceachin was suspended that was truly for his own good to keep his grades in line. im hoping these arent cases of coach/player friction because im sure rival coaches will mention it during recruiting ie. "why goto radford when all of the players dont enjoy playing for the coach and transfer or are dissmissed or suspended?"
but with mcduffy it could just be another stupid RU bball mishap like the "weed incident" a few years ago w/ holcomb faye and that group.

Mcworld has to have worked his way into the starting five...the only logic would be that coach likes his energy off of the bench which he certainly has in spades.

wow, weird situation.....you shouldnt be arguing w/ the coach, and it seems like it happened so frequently greenberg just got fed up with it. i wasnt there, but it seems like arguments are something that can be worked out...greenberg had to be really pissed off. i figured it would be something more serious to kick off a starter on your team in the middle of the season, oh well.

I don't mind a spat between player and coach...a lot of times that can make a bond stronger. For me, I never thought McDuffy had the best attitude for the game. The interesting thing is that the team has responded with two wins without him but who knows if they knew he was officially gone....I'd love to hear what Kenny Thomas and Eric Hall have to say about it.
