Why Dupree didn't Play

Testudo Times has just heard that Patrick Stevens at the Washington Times is reporting that the reason Dupree didn't leave the bench tonight wasn't because of his poor play over the first 5 games (although that could affect play in future games) but rather he missed class on Monday and was subsequently held out of tonight's contest. After arriving back around midnight on Sunday from Orlando, Dupree apparently missed a class Monday morning.

It will be interesting to see what happens on Sunday at the BB&T...I'd expect Dupree to play some, but I don't think you'll see him starting, especially after the way Neal and Gregory played tonight. He'll maybe get 10 mins until he starts rebounding, boxing out, and being more aggressive on the offensive end.
