Garry Parrish and Matt Norlander, of CBS, talked about the incident on their Eye on their Eye on College Basketball podcast.

“It’s just absolutely ridiculous video and an insane story,” Norlander said. “It kind of makes sense for (Dayton coach) Anthony Grant to kick him off the team.’

I will be completely and utterly shocked if Sam is still on the team this coming season. Especially with the video evidence.
