Lack of ISUr conversation

by **CaliRdBrd** » December 12th, 2012, 2:30 pm

Why is there hardly ever any mention of Redbird basketball here? I graduated a while ago, but there seemed to be more interest when i was there than there is now. Are there any current students on this board that can give me a feeling for what the basketball vibe is like on campus? Is there a better site for Redbird chat?

There is a separate Redbird forum. PM me if you can't find it.

The fact that few IlSU fans post here speaks well of the education they received at IlSU.

Would you be willing to extend the same complement to our friends the Trees?

"Allen is charged with criminal conspiracy-marijuana and manufacture/delivery of 30 to 500 grams of marijuana."

I would assume his playing days are done.

I am not justifying what he did but in reality, that is a very small amount of weed.

The range is from just over an ounce to just over 1 pound and one ounce. That's what he was selling in a single transaction. Transactions that size are not normally dealing to an end user - they are dealing to someone who sells to the end user. He's at the lower end of being a mid-level drug dealer.

In Illinois 30 to 500 is a Class 3 felony. When someone is charged with this in addition to conspiracy, that is the total amount they are know to have sold, not the amount sold in a single transaction.
