Well, now! Talk about good timing...the community will be up in arms, since he is the Duke Basketball star! Does Nifong and the Durham PD have special assignments to trail all the athletes at Duke now?

". . . a 2005 Toyota SUV approached the checkpoint and then the driver made an illegal U-turn away from the checkpoint."

How can this be? I thought SUV's acted independently and on their own accord.

My guess is yes.

Will Duke now cancel the Basketball season now? Fire the coach?

"he community will be up in arms, since he is the Duke Basketball star! "

Nobody will go out of their way to defend him. DUI is a very irresponsible thing and Reddick's behavior is repherehnsable. I have no sympathy for anyone who drives drunk. And the idea that this is part of a conspiracy is beyond foolish. The DA is not having the police set up road blocks to catch Duke basketball players. That'd be the quickest way to get run out of town.

The mug shot. FWIW this isn't even his first problem with substances. He got caught doing drugs on campus as a freshman. As a star player though this was all swept under the rug.

WTF?????

A college BBall player is driving a virtually new (expensive) SUV around campus?

Are the parents rich enough to afford that?

Here in Michigan, we know that sometimes a basketball player driving an exensive SUV is the start of a very long, very painful investigation to a whole lot of corruption. Let's just say that some thought that the U of M basketball prgram should've gotten the death penalty for all of the nonsense that went on during the Fab Five years.....

He's the NBA's problem now. Nothing more to see here.

Officers had a license checkpoint station set up in Durham Monday night

Translation, road block to catch DUI suspects and raise money.

It had nothing whatsoever to do with licenses.

The speculation on the UNC message boards is that his defense will be that he took 18 shots but only downed 3.

Suspend the team. Cancel their season. Bring in the Black Panthers as counselors!

Is Reddick white, or black?

Is "Duke Manor, whatever that is," inhabited by mainly Duke students?

Man, I learned a long time ago to make use of DDs. More than 2 beers and somebody else has the keys.

I suppose this means they will cancel basketball and fire the coach.
