    DAWSON NOT TRAVELING WITH TEAM DUE TO FAILING ALL CLASSES

    -Free Press Sports, Page 1 Headline

    No where does it say "Failing All Classes"

    Spartans leave Branden Dawson behind because of academic issue | Detroit Free Press | freep.com

    Dawson showed up to the Breslin Center on Monday evening to eat with the team and get on the bus to head to the airport. But he only made it across the parking lot before Tom Izzo asked him to get off the bus.

  • Izzo said on the WLNS special that he had not turned in a couple of papers, and that after calling him a couple of times, he didn't return the call. He further stated that they had packed his bags as they always do for the team, and after talking to Dawson he thought it would be better for him to stay and complete his schoolwork. Izzo did mention that the news had picked right up on his walking away with his bags and made it sound like he had robbed a bank or something. That was the gist of it, though it may not be word for word.

    That makes me feel a bit better, Dawson has to learn that not turning in "a couple papers" is a big deal in college.

    Also, here's an excerpt from Rexrode's most recent blog entry:

    * And speaking of life lessons, Tom Izzo told reporters today that a missed class assignment contributed to the decision to leave Branden Dawson home. Dawson was all packed but walked home off the bus after the bus got to the top of the tunnel at Breslin.

    "Definitely a tough lesson," Draymond Green said of Dawson. "But at the end of the day, it'll help him out as a player and it'll help the program out as well."

    "I talked to B.J. but I didn’t ask him about it," Derrick Nix said of the decision. "I don’t think he wanted to talk about it.”

    Cabin pressure is constant in an airplane. This doesn't make any sense.

    The larger concern post-surgery is clotting from sitting still in a confined space for an extended period of time.

    Where on Earth did you come up with that??? Have you ever flown a long distance jet flight? Do you know why your ears pop as you ascend and descend?

    If you're flying at 40,000 feet a cabin is pressurized to 8000 feet.

    There are many health effects possible from flying a high altitude jet flight. Whether a jet flight is contraindicated after joint surgery, I don't know.

  • I just found out about this story, kicking Dawson off the bus after going around the parking lot. Really disappointing in Dawson, I really hope he gets his shit in order for School so he can kick ass next year, dude has HUGE upside to be a star. In the long run, this should help if he has a good head on his shoulders.

    He is a Freshman...I'm sure he will learn from it.
