My guess is skipping class.
It's not academically related
Then what is it?
Legal? There are tons of things that it could be rather than academics.
I'm guessing they broke into a house or academic building and stole some laptops/monitors/something else
I, like many others here, was quite excited about Ty when I saw his HS highlight reel. Dude was thin as a rail and needed to bulk up and get more aggressive on the boards. But he was a great shot blocker, had some rudimentary offensive moves and a surprisingly good touch from 12' on the baseline or the FT line. Deman had mostly positive things to say as I recall, and Ty had a great ranking (albeit higher than it should have been). Had he had his head on straight, hit the weights and listened to his coaches, he certainly had the raw talent to have been a very good college center. So I disagree that he never had the chance to be good. But now he has flamed out big time under 2 different regimes. And whatever you say about Bz and Dino, it's not like they are a$$holes with Bobby Knight personalities. Ty was born 7' with athleticism and some skills. I have no problem with Skip and Dino recruiting him based on his potential or Bz keeping him this year and continuing to try to work with him. But Ty just hasn't gotten it, and frankly, that kind of thing isn't exactly a science when you're trying to predict how a kid is gonna turn out. The way I see it, it's all on him.
