SportsFilter: The Friday Huddle:
A place to discuss the sports stories that aren't making news, share links that aren't quite front-page material, and diagram plays on your hand. Remember to count to five Mississippi before commenting in anger.
Duke goon Grayson Allen was recently suspended "indefinitely" by Coach Krzyzewski for another unsportsmanlike incident.
"Indefinitely" turned out to be one game, a road loss at Va. Tech. Allen was back on the floor to help dominate Ga. Tech at home two nights ago.
Lame. Sad. Wrong. Coach K could have kept Allen out for a second game without drastically decreasing the team's chances of winning. Duke has another semi-soft home game tomorrow against BC and could have sat him for that as well. Then, their concept of "indefinitely" would have more of an air of legitimacy to it.
Next week, Duke hits the road to play FSU and Louisville. Then we're gonna see about this.

I was actually a bit surprised that he actually missed a game at all, since there were ten days between the tripping incident and the next game and I'm beyond cynical about K's self-righteous bullshit.
