Yeah, I don't think they would run him just for getting busted once. This almost has to have been compounded by whatever he did to get suspended during the season. A 3 game suspension is pretty steep too, so maybe he's been in trouble a few times.

This was his 3rd strike. This makes getting Percy Gibson that much more important.

We boot Godfrey, but give a crappy player like Railey numerous chances. WTF

**SC Cy** · 05-09-2011, 06:47 PM

What an idiot. What an unbelievably stupid, idiotic, and boneheaded move. Goodbye Godfrey, fade into oblivion as you blew the chance most people would kill for.

This.

Sounds like he was given one more chance after his suspension in February and he just blew it. Way to go Calvin!

**Chizit** · 05-09-2011, 06:56 PM

Very sad that he is off the team now as he had a great future, but it was definetly the right thing to do.

Remember when we were talking about if we would have enough scholarships for next year?

I miss those days.

you have to be kidding me..

**Al_4_State** · 05-09-2011, 07:07 PM

Wonder if this wasn't just Fred saying "enough is enough". Feels like other, worse players like Railey have gotten more chances and this was more of a timing thing. Possession of marijuana is a lesser charge than OWI.

This stinks. Fred's "plan" is teetering on the brink of disaster right now.

Sure, we should still be good, but we're losing very valuable depth right now. Fred's plan of bringing in all these transfers in order to see early success, which he can then sell to the elite high school players to come to ISU, is on the ropes right now.

Not only are we bringing in older, veteran transfers, but we are losing our young and up and coming guys like Godfrey and Cook. Who knows if Railey can keep his act together either at this point?

If Fred strikes out on anymore young high school level talent, we could easily see a decent year or two with players like White, Allen, Babb, Lucious, Clyburn, etc... but then might be faced with a big dropoff after that.

I don't want to see anymore transfers at this point. We have more than enough one and two year players. Allen is a one year guy. Lucious will be a one year guy. Clyburn will be a one year guy. Booker is two years, correct? Babb is two years. McGee is a two year guy. We need some infusion of young talent, and we need it SOON.

Oh... and as for Godfrey... some coach (just like Fred) will take a chance on him transferring to their school. Why not? And if Calvin can keep his act together, he'll end up being a dominant player at another school.

If this is indeed his 3rd strike, you almost wish nobody would take a chance on him and just let him work at Wal-Mart the rest of his life. That's basically what someone like this probably deserves.... if it is indeed his 3rd strike.

What a *******. This ******* blows.

So the guys McD brought in are ruining Fred's plan? Makes sense...
