Word is that Yarbrough may have been involved in a hit-and-run and is possibly facing various charges, including driving without a valid license, obstructing identification, plus failure to provide information and aid in an injury-related accident. Given his past record of arrests, this could be serious.

Where there is smoke, there is fire.  This young man has some maturing to do based on numerous run-ins with authority.  He is an excellent ball player but clearly needs to work on his decision making.  Just hoping that he can continue his bball career and or academic career.  Irregardless, being on the road at 2:27AM is completely and utterly unnecessary in most all scenarios.

This is not good news for the MVC's multibid chances. That's for sure.

If Yarbrough can't play how far does Illinois State fall down the standings? Are they even a top 4 team?

If he were an everyday Joe Schmoe, he'd be gone in a heartbeat - but he isn't.  Thus, Muller will likely use the Rob Jeter "work with him, help him understand the error of his ways, use this as a learning experience" remedial ruse, meaning a 3-6 game suspension against opponents to be decided (non D-1 and meaningless D-1 games). If, however, he does kick him off, look for college basketball's master vulture Greg Kampe to swoop in and pick him off, under the "I take chances other coaches won't because I think everyone is redeemable, no matter what they've done or how many chances they've had" ruse.

Irregardless is a nonstandard synonym for regardless, which means "without concern as to advice, warning, or hardship," or "heedless." Its nonstandard status is due to the double negative construction of the prefix ir- with the suffix -less. ... The bottom line is that irregardless is indeed a word, albeit a clunky one.

Irregardless is a word sometimes used in place of regardless or irrespective which has caused controversy since the early twentieth century, though the word appeared in print as early as 1795. Most dictionaries list it as nonstandard or incorrect usage, and recommend that "regardless" be used instead.

A friend told me it's a really good time for ride share drivers but that in itself can be a dangerous occupation.
