All the charges are misdemeanors, Bonner said. Ellerbe said his concern now was for Gaines, who will be allowed to keep his scholarship and stay in school if he chooses. Ellerbe said Gaines' U-M career definitely was over. Jamal Crawford left for the NBA, and Leland Anderson has transferred to Providence. Gaines is free to transfer but must sit out a year before playing again.
Basketball is really a moot point right now.
There is no allegation of gambling involving U-M basketball, but at least two former players have told a grand jury Martin lent them large sums of money. Last year, Queen was charged with assault after he and another student at a Massachusetts prep school hit a fellow student with a belt. Under a plea agreement in June, Queen will receive a year's probation and serve 50 hours of community service.
