Purdue Latest News
Purdue Team Report (Yahoo! Sports)
Purdue's roller coaster-like season took another twist on Feb. 17 when coach Matt Painter dismissed junior guard/forward Kelsey Barlow from the program and suspended junior guard/forward DJ Byrd for one game after an incident outside a West Lafayette, Ind. campus-area bar.
Barlow, who was on a zero tolerance policy imposed by Painter after being suspended for the 2011 NCAA tournament for "conduct detrimental to the program," was asked to leave the bar after a confrontation inside the establishment. When he left the bar, Barlow realized he had left his wallet inside.
When Byrd asked a bouncer if he could go back inside and retrieve the wallet, the bouncer and Byrd got into a pushing and shoving match.
