Riding the pine
One of the four players who has signed with the Hawkeyes as part of the 2010 recruiting class is currently riding the pine.
Cody Larson has worked beyond an ankle injury that sidelined him earlier in his senior season at Sioux Falls Roosevelt HS in South Dakota, but the 6-foot-8 senior is now riding the pine for another reason.
Citing privacy rules, details are sketchy but Larson did sit out a game Tuesday and his status for the remainder of the regular season and the postseason, which begins next week, is unannounced.
Mark Meile, the activities director for the Sioux Falls school district, did tell the Sioux Falls Argus-Leader that the district had taken some action at Roosevelt.
"I can confirm that we had some disciplinary action taken at Roosevelt involving activities rules,'' Meile told the publication.
That's as far as he would go.
Larson currently averages 18 points and 7 rebounds for the Roughriders.
