Am I the only one who is going to avoid ripping into a player who is going home because he lost his grandmother? Some of you come across as complete "paper bags" (not the word I wanted to use, but it's all the site would let me write)... Has his play on the court been poor? Yes. Has he created issues off the court? From what people have said, yes. However, if the kid is taking a leave because he lost yet ANOTHER family member [grandmother, aunt, uncle (those are just the ones I remember since he started school)], y'all need to look in the mirror and prioritize what's really important in life. Basketball is a game. Rysheed will never see his aunt, uncle, or grandmother again, and you're all worried about a basketball game? You should be ashamed. If it comes out that the grandmother thing was just an excuse and he just didn't want to be a part of the team, then so be it. Until that happens, I'm going to continue to support the kid in his time of need.
Logan..On the surface,what you say makes absolute sense...but something doesnt add up...it cannot be just about the death of his grandmother...otherwise, I think the staff would highlight the fact that it was more important for him to be dealing with this life event and certainly the players (presumably his friends) would...soemthing doesn't totally add up

What gets me with this whole situation is that Jordan benefits from buying in this year and getting his act together. If he plays within the team concept, we get to the NCAA's, maybe win the BE tourney, and get him plenty of exposure to play wherever he wants to play next year. For the seniors, it gives them the missing piece. And for Lavs it probably gets him the extension. Shame that the young man and his entourage can't see through that. Because it will be a monumental waste of talent. The majority view here is that the kid is the problem. But I think most of us would live with him being a problem this year if it resulted in the team having the year a lot of us thought they would two games ago.
The kid is the problem, and the coach and his staff are the bigger problem.
I don't understand how at this point it isn't completely obvious to you that Jordan has issues that have nothing to do with his family. Why isn't he allowed to speak to the media? Is he a f'ing nice person? Maybe so.

Rather than escape Philly and the likes of the them it appears he's headed right back where he came from, and then perhaps, the NBDL, China or maybe he'll be an attendant at WaWa. If so, in a sense he's fufill one our goals for him by racking up an assist every time he helped a customer fill up their tank.
It's amazing at St.John's, we have so many more busts than success stories. Who would have imagined two weeks ago, SU and Seton Hall are in, and we're out.

@JasonKingBR · 11 minutes ago Rysheed Jordan's leave of absence from St. John's is, in part, b/c he's grieving the loss of his grandmother who died Friday, source told BR
Today's Post reporting it was basically a suspension due to frequent infractions. Anyone still believe he had the Flu against Tulane?

He played against Tulane he had the flu against Long Beach State because he doesn't like CA. Which totally blows my mind but which now I believe.

I can't believe I actually thought he had a dental problem during the NIT last year. What an ass I was for giving him the BOTD.

With the amount of times he was "out" you had to know something was amiss.  I've never seen a player miss so much time due to non-injury/non-suspension related issues.  Turns out half of it was probably BS.

Ever seen a player lose his friend, aunt, grandmother in less then two seasons? Seems apparent to me that Jordan hasnt been a model student athlete, also seems he hasnt had the easiest time either.

Ever see a kid leave the school multiple times without telling the coach? Ever see a kid miss a game with a toothache?

My bad, tough to keep track of the games he missed.

Thanks while at the NIT game which was forgettable, I forgot about his "contribution" to the team.  This gets more like the fable of the boy who cried wolf--eventually you have NO credibility.  His behavior is a forgettable way to get NBA recognition.  Total waste of talent that at this point I can not see realized unless he has a true reality check.  Needs a check up from the neck up--and I don't mean dental.
Right now I am fed up with this spoiled brat.

Don't think it's fake, i just think he uses two, one is his public one that he "shuts down" during the season, the secondary is where he goes to tweet and not have the staff/public see.

Fwiw there is a new daily news article betting Jordan will return at some point. States there is too much at stake for the player, coach and the seniors for reunion not to happen.

A bit off topic but it has to be a good thing when Brandon Sampson's mom is retweeting 'come back Sheed' tweets.
