If he threw a punch initially and then moved away, it's possible that in that moment it clicked that he needed to get away from the fight before it got out of hand.

From those videos, I have zero problem with DSR and his actions. He didn't instigate the fight. He took a swing...big deal. Jordan, Bird, Magic, and on and on got into fights on the court where punches were thrown.
I'm not condoning fighting and throwing punches, but this is a non issue to me. DSR is a great kid by all accounts.

The more I hear, the more I am glad Xavier is no longer involved with this kid.
I'm also glad we cut ties with this kid. He and his crew are nothing but trouble.
Yea, I'd be surprised if didn't end up becoming just another great talent who doesn't make it because of the other circumstances.

BSnowScout Brian Snow Now that Mike Chandler has withdrawn from LN, the real question is which of the schools he committed to will Jack Keefer blast on the radio?
I do. Everyone knows you can't throw a punch. If you feel you have no choice but to leave the bench, then you go get your guy. You don't escalate the issue with roundhouses. It's not "holier than thou." It's judgment. And it's important.Quote:

Kids often leave so they can go somewhere and get their stuff in order to qualify for college.
I just wonder if this is the case of Chandler gaining another blemish or its just another kid trying to get out of Lawrence North to better his chances for college.
