[ulforlife]

_ There is a rumor on campus going around that has nothing to do with drugs or playing time. I don't know if the real story will come out but who knows. Will be ok without them.

All this overshawdows a great performance by Tyren Johnson. Tyren is so raw that it is scary to think what he could become. _

Stephen Dees was not on scholarship and David is a senior. David's scholarship has already been filled with the early signees.

David seemed like he took the loss of playing time initially really well and started asserting himself more when he did play and earned a lot more pt. It seemed like he was happy with his contributions to the team and was enjoying the streak they were on.

According to someone who was at practice today, David Dees was dressed out and practicing with the team.

Great news! I hope you're right!

official statement from coach Lee saying Younger Dees is no longer with the team and David Dees took time to evaluate his family and personal situation and decided to finish up his senior season with the team. Thats what Scott said on BEV today. I'm glad to see that David decided to stay with the team, I think his leadership will be a big help going down the stretch.

David Dees decided he still wants to play basketball at UL. As reported Friday afternoon at theadvertiser.com, UL coach Robert Lee said Dees has rejoined the Ragin' Cajuns. The senior guard did not dress out nor attend Thursday's 57-51 loss to Middle Tennessee State at the Cajundome. "After David has considered both his family and his own personal situations, David has decided that it is in his best interest to remain a part of the Ragin' Cajuns basketball team," Lee said in a statement released through UL's athletic media relations department. "We are very excited that David is working through his family problems, and we look forward to him coming back to this basketball team and providing the leadership we know that he can provide."

I've been impressed with David Dees ever since he came to UL and perhaps even moreso for the decision he has apparantly made to remain with the team. Whatever the problem is/was and no matter how much he plays or doesn't play, IMHO he made the correct choice to finish out the season with the Cajuns.

That's a very mature approach from David. I met Stephen after the WKY game and he seemed to be a very nice young man as well. I hope whatever has happened in his life, that he will be able to get back on track soon. I wish Stephen the best, and thank David for coming back. Best of luck to him as well.
