WKU head men’s basketball coach Rick Stansbury has spoken out for the first time about issues surrounding prized recruit Mitchell Robinson. In a statement Stansbury stated “WKU freshman center Mitchell Robinson is suspended indefinitely from the program for a violation of team rules. Mitchell is a good kid, but the team will always be more important than one individual player. He needs to understand the value of structure and accountability in his life, and his return will be dependent upon requirements that will be handled internally.
Stansbury added “My focus is on our team, and I’m excited about this group as we prepare for next week’s trip to Costa Rica.”
