Price Gets Probation: Connecticut redshirt freshman guard A.J. Price will enter an accelerated probation program as punishmnet for his role in the theft of four laptop computers from a Connecticut dorm. Price and fellow Husky guard Marcus Williams stole four computers and attempted to sell them. During Price’s 18-month probation, he must complete 400 hours of community service and stay out of trouble. Coach Jim Calhoun has already suspended Price for the season, meaning the highly praised guard will continue to delay his Husky career. Last season, Price had a brain hemorrhage that landed him in the hospital for several weeks. He still does not have a medical pass to play, but that’s irrelevant now. Players can petition the NCAA for a medical redshirt classification, which means the season missed because of injury does not count against their eligibility.
