Exactly.What else would you call a high maintenance player? How about nothing while a reporter is there with the intent of writing about the meeting.What else would you call a player who is high maintenance besides "high maintenance"?...No so hot on saying a player is high maintenance
...and what is wrong with a player who is "high maintenance" finding out that is what his coach thinks about him?
When Mitch Krenk and one of his buddies were struggling to stay on the team in their early years, they decided that they couldn't afford to be "high maintenance" and in fact had to be "no maintenance" unless the staff figured that they just weren't worth the effort. Both stayed on the team and saw playing time.

Pointless response, just because it did not come out identical does not make the two incomparable. Riley was going to announce them as well and you want to quibble over timeline.Meyer intentionally announced the suspensions in front of a gathering of media with the goal of said information being immediately disseminated to the public.He announced the suspension of his players at B10 media days within minutes after having it whispered in his ear by someone in the AD dept. right before he was to give an interview.What did Meyer say?
The Portland reporter sat in on a Tuesday meeting, waited two days to publish his article, admitted he thought Riley was going to announce the suspensions before his article was published and Riley admitted he didn't want the suspension announcement to come out the way it did. Clearly, a communication error between coach and reporter.
The only real, valid comparison between these two scenarios is that players were suspended. Several other factors are incomparable.
You call my response pointless, but, then respond with an even more pointless retort arguing the relevance of the thread?
