Hmm wonder what happened. It's being made clear though that coach capel is not putting up with any mess and is making it clear that it's a privlege to play at OU. I will miss seeing juan play for OU next year but best wishes to him and whatever he decides to do.

The rumor mill I have heard says something to the effect of going to class. Sounds like a pretty good team rule....:)

Given the time of the year (end of the semester grades being posted) I kinda figure it has to be an academic issue of some kind. Seemed like Patillio had some real good potential even if he was still a bit inconsistent. Good for Coach Capel to take a hard line on academics, though.

Actually he was caught stealing.

Oh dear... more makeup from Wal-mart? Well, I won't jump to conclusions until it's reported.

I had a feeling that there was a deeper reason why Capel wasn't playing Juan more late in the tourney. Regardless, I wish Juan well and hope he gets his academics in order

After leaving the Bacardi plant in Santurce PR, I saw the Chupacabra, it had big red eyes and a hook em' horns sign upside down on it's forehead. It was an OKLAHOMA fan for sure.

If it wasn't the Chupacabra, it was the Bacardi!!

I dunno about the whole stealing part but I know for a fact attendance was a reason. I had him in my tennis elective this past semester and he went maybe 4 times the whole semester and he didnt even show up for the final in there. And the 4 times he did go to class, he never brought any kind of tennis stuff and just stood around and talked on his phone til it was time to leave.
