Looks like the accusations that go around Albany, come around to Albany. Why is Albany recruiting someone with drug offenses on their record? What an embarrassment to the AE!!

Albany withdrew its scholarship offer to Mills after hearing about the drug test issues. It was the correct decision. The Great Danes are moving in the right direction with their recruiting. I really think the days of the Scott Beeten and EJ Gallup eye sores are over. Brown and McElroy are trusted drivers behind the wheel. I think UAlbany fans are starting to come out of the closet. This program is on the rise every day as well as our neighbors from Binghamton.

His verbal came during the 'quiet' period for recruiting. Albany has now withdrawn the offer. Mills never signed a NLOI.

You are a "Horses A--", who has no clue what your talking about. Brown and his staff are dealing with quality kids who also must get it done academically and socially. There are certain programs that come with a cloud and have kids who UA couldn't even look at. If Albany has anything they have "GOOD Kids". Some would say that's part of the problem, some think the higher the SAT and the less trouble a recruit has the worse a player he must be. People who live in glass houses shouldn't throw stones. The Danes will get it done the RIGHT way!!!
