Posted January 14, 201510 yr Sources saying ND has suspended Auguste for the rest of the year. Tough break as he was our only big man. http://m.fox28.com/w/sports/story/125163184/
January 14, 201510 yr I have not been a fan of Auguste but this is still huge news and a total disappointment if true.
January 14, 201510 yr This news can eat a bag a dicks. Are you serious? One of the best ND teams I can remember for some time and it's about go down the toilet while other shady programs laugh their way into the tourney. Really does feel like ND is cursed in basically everything it does excluding men's soccer. Feeling successful, getting national pub? Blam! DuLac drops the hammer on you...
January 14, 201510 yr Disappointing news is definitely an understatement. Just hope it's not for the full year.
January 14, 201510 yr Unbelievable. I was pumped for this team and it will falter without the big man. This sucks.
January 14, 201510 yr hahahaha classic Notre Dame. the new yearly tradition! who do think will get suspended from football next season??? any guesses?
January 14, 201510 yr Not sure ND can get past a tough GT team tonight. Especially how they played us a couple of weeks ago...
January 14, 201510 yr Not sure ND can get past a tough GT team tonight. Especially how they played us a couple of weeks ago... I would have bet the house that we would have beat them with Auguste on board. We shot extremely poorly against them but still won with Grant taking it to the hole. Bound to shoot better this time, but without Auguste I'm just not excited about this season any more.
January 14, 201510 yr There's a chance he won't be out the entire year. Also, I think the Irish come together, play very well tonight, and get a W. Auguste or not, this is still a guard dominated team and should be fun to watch.
January 14, 201510 yr It seems to never end with ND sport teams, it's a shame but no point in dwelling on it. What happened with him someone proofread his paper too? Now we need Geben to step up, he was a 4 star recruit and a big man so he needs to take over that role. Beachem, Torres, and Katenda are the only other guys over 6'8 on the roster, how much of a dropoff are these guys from Auguste? and who is likely to take over his role?
January 14, 201510 yr I heard its only tonight and not long term. He's not travelling with the team to get some things in order in South Bend.
January 15, 201510 yr Game like today shows why I can't stand Brey. Colson needs to play more, obviously everyone can see Geben is awful.
January 15, 201510 yr Game like today shows why I can't stand Brey. Colson needs to play more, obviously everyone can see Geben is awful. Amen. Colson is only 6' 5'' but has very long arms and was very aggressive tonight. He also can score some and is very good at the free throw line. Wish he was 6' 9''. Hope above poster was right that Zach comes back next game. If he does and we beat Miami we are assured top ten in the next poll. Don't give up on Geben. He looks like Cooley as a freshman. Brey seems to transform these big men.
January 15, 201510 yr This doesn't sound like the suspended 4 issue. More like he needs to finish some reports.
January 15, 201510 yr I wasn't able to watch any of the game but at least they won! Hopefully Auguste gets things taken care of, and it only makes the team better!
January 15, 201510 yr tough break is an understatement............. I would think that this would hurt ND a lot in ACC play. what the hell is going on with ND athletes and academics, I can never remember it ever being this bad.
