Hope that sucker punch was worth it. Not smart. But wait, NOT GUILTY, if only UC had the same people that Xavier has protecting their players, Ellis would still be a part of the team. Right, right? LOL moron. (Not Guilty, not Ellis)

I do feel bad for Ellis, been through some rough shit.

You think? That's the only factor. Well that, and the fact that he has had previous problems while at UC.

That bouncer must have talked some serious trash talk, I'm sure Ellis learned that ROUGH lesson from Mick. What a joke.

I hate to see someone like Ellis go but Mick had to do something. His hand was forced and He made the right decision in my opinion. Its a shame because of Ellis's childhood and the opportunity he had in front of him.

Lets hope no charges are filed against anyone and no more disciplinary actions are taken for the current players.

BearcatMick and Ralph, you guys need to cool it with your conspiracies. You make the fanbase look delusional

Ellis has had a very troubled past, I honestly hope this kid gets his head on straight at some point...but he has issues.

Xavier fan posting unwanted comments on a UC board. What a joke.

I think Ellis had a tremendoues amount of potential.

I like that Mick held him to higher standard but lets be real. This was not a tough decision.

Best news is that Cronin is going to continue to work with Ellis and help him pick a good school for him to land at.

I am think C-USA. If he reaches his potential he could be really really good. Besides Shaq Thomas I think he might have the higest potential on the team.

Why do you keep referencing trash talk as to why Yancy went Mr. T on Xavier?

I am pretty sure it was the slap and blindside shove.

Tu was ready to slap a freshman and Dez was willing to shove our 6'2 gaurd but when Yancy started throwing punches and sticking up for Guyn TU and Dez wanted none of it.

Chicken shit move. Talk a bunch of trash, slap a freshman, blindside shove one of the smallest guys on the team and then cry foul when Yancy starts clearing house.

Too bad for the young man, he's been through a quite a bit in his life. But I do think it was the right decision. My guess is the brawl and the nightclub weren't the only two incidents. This was probably the final straw. Best of luck to him, glad Mick is going to help him out in finding a new school to attend/play. I'm sure it was tough decision, but had to be done.
