Larson= Dodged Bullet

[tweeterhawk]

It appears that now that he has been arrested for the attempted car break-in in Florida, Larson has violated terms of his probation and could be tossed in the clink for four months. Will be interesting to see how that plays out. Perhaps he'll sharpen his elbows in jail yard pick-up games.

I'm not. I Fran talked about this to the media earlier on last year. Also talked to him about it too. Fran was pretty ****** he wasted time trying to re-recruit Ben. A lot of time wasted.

Also, Ben put him in a bad spot. First he wasted his time by re-recruiting him, but also what if he didn't let him out of his LOI? Then it would be bad publicity to a coach who hadn't even coached a game. So there was nothing Fran could do but put it in the hands of the Big Ten, who wussed out on sticking to their rules.

I wouldn't be surprised to see Larson end up in Ames if he gets booted from Florida. Hoiberg loves him these types of high character kids.

I was watching the movie "The Longest Yard" last night and I instantly thought of the Iowa State basketball program. I picture them as the "Mean Machine".
