Oh Lard, buddy. Stay out of the Drake neighborhood. Don't go to Drake.

I never saw that report, but that would be a terrible spot for him to land.

It wasn't real.

0 chance Drake AD would sign off on adding someone with lards issues. Doubt many will.

Yeah, sorry if I dredged that Drake rumor up and made it seem more true than it was. I tried saying it was not very "reliable or serious" to ward off something like that.

Still, for a guy to be the #10 transfer in the class, and I would believe that given Lard's productivity his freshman year, and to only hear crickets about him...

...well...

...I guess that says what kind of red flags the guy throws up.

Sometimes I think we should be proud of Prohm for getting everything out of him that he did.

His issues aren't any worse than some of the transfers ISU has taken on.

Perhaps. I do not know how much of the true story on any of them we have heard.

BDJ throwing a chair at Fred and Royce's stalking are pretty bad, though.

I feel like we know much less of what went on with Lard.

Much like BDJ and Royce, as time passes we’ll start to hear some of the real issues Lard had start to leak out.

I mean he spent a summer away from the team at rehab and you think speeding tickets and a drug paraphernalia citation was his issues.

Well, he was obviously partying a lot and the maijuana pipe tells me he was smoking. Have any insight into anything else that he did. I just don't understand the issues that made you an insufferable douche bag.

At this point I am wondering if Prohm is giving Lard bad reviews to coaches calling and asking about him. I could see him telling certain power 5 teams reaching out that he is not worth the trouble. I could see Lard being scooped up by a mid major that needs a player and can take a risk on him. I don't see many power 5 teams being in a position that Lard is a guy they can take a chance on. I think power 5 teams take chances on certain players that are next level. Lard is not next level.

Whoa, I am not sure I heard these stories. "Royce's Stalking" sounds especially ominous.

I think that's in reference to the rumor that student managers were basically assigned to round the clock supervision of Royce to keep him out of trouble. I have no idea if that's actually true but I know I've seen that story pop up here occasionally.

The BDJ chair throwing story supposedly happened at halftime of the UAB game. Again, no idea if it actually happened but the rumor has made the rounds.

Pretty positive Prohm wouldn't do that
