[QUOTE="EyeoftheIllini, post: 1670512, member: 623415"] I don’t think anyone is surprised by Bilas’s reaction. And my point was more that Kofi’s decision wasn’t cut and dried. He had to weigh everything and do what he feels gives him the best chance to realize his dream of being drafted/playing in NBA. Obviously he felt take the three games and then move on uninterrupted. Maybe he could have won appeal or trip to the courts. I just think it is easy as a fan or even Jay Bilas to say fight it when there is no skin in the game. I don’t think he should have been suspended, and if he had chosen to fight it I would have no problem with that either. Just as I have no problem with him taking the safer route. [/QUOTE]
