STORRS -- There's more trouble for the UConn men's basketball program.

Campus police are investigating the alleged theft of lap top computers by players Marcus Williams and A.J. Price.

Police said the investigation is in the early stages, but police sources feel that they have some good leads.

Two university sources said that Williams and Price allegedly stole ten lap top computers from UConn dorm rooms.

According to the New London Day, two of the victims are on the women's basketball team, Kalana Greene and Renee Montgomery.

Sources say they planned to sell the computers.

No arrests have been made and police say the investigation is ongoing.

Williams is coming off a break out sophomore season.  He started all 31 games for the Huskies at point guard. Price, a freshman, sat out because of a brain hemmorage.

The investigation comes two months after freshman Antonio Kellogg was arrested twice.

Kellogg was expelled from UConn and has returned home to California.

idiots. there go our chances for the title next year...now we have no point guard. unless, of course, i try out.

Gordon wasn't exactly a model...but at least he kept out of trouble. Okafor though, man, what I would give for him to be back. Can't complain though, I did get to see him play for one year. Seriously though, what happened to guys like Ray Allen, Rip Hamilton, Okafor, Ricky Moore, Doron Sheffer, etc. We've now lost three players in less than six months.

This is what happens when you recruit style over substance and this is also why the NBA needed an older age limit than 19. These kids are using college as a pit stop to the NBA, they don't have any respect for their university, fellow schoolmates, or anybody else.

It's sad man, a couple of years ago I thought I'd never see this type of action going on at UCONN. When you see guys like Khalid El-Amin, Ray Allen, Omeka Okafor, Travis Knight, Ben Gordon...guys who gave 4 years of their life and their heart and soul to that school, you tend to think all the guys would be like them. But, I think part of the blame should go to Calhoun too. He's brought on some questionable players the last 2-3 years (in my opinion, anyway).

    • I found that stability back then was really down to the motherboard manufacturer. Back then i stuck with Microstar motherboards and VIA chipsets as they were ultra reliable. Most stuff was done with jumpers and left little room for user created problems 👍
    • Yes, Scoop was created to promote Coreutils for Windows. You can still see early versions of their website on the Web Archive. It was a joke that nobody took seriously. Microsoft's implementation of Coreutils, however, are built in Rust.
    • Looks like EA's Star Wars Zero Company will be out this August by Pulasthi Ariyasinghe Over a year ago, EA surprise announced that a team of former Firaxis members is working on a brand-new Star Wars game. Dubbed Zero Company, the title would have XCOM-like turn-based tactics gameplay as players manage a squad of professionals from all over the galaxy. Now, just ahead of an official announcement, it looks like the release date has leaked out. The upcoming Summer Game Fest presentation on Friday is when EA is supposed to show off the title's gameplay footage, with fans also expecting it to reveal a release date. However, the ever-reliable billbil-kun from Dealabs says they have already managed to find out when the game is coming out and what versions fans will have the option of purchasing. Per the leak, Star Wars Zero Company has an August 27, 2026, release date attached to it. The title is slated to release on PC, Xbox Series X|S, and PlayStation 5 with a $49.99 standard and $59.99 Deluxe edition. The leaker also adds that there won't be any early access perk attached to this special edition. Pre-orders could kick off alongside the official announcement this Friday, too. For those unfamiliar with the title, Bit Reactor is developing Star Wars Zero Company with help from Respawn Entertainment and Lucasfilm Games. The EA-published title is said to be set during the "twilight of the Clone Wars." We will have to wait and see if base building and management mechanics from the XCOM series will be present here, too. "You will step into the shoes of Hawks, a former Republic officer who leads Zero Company — an unconventional outfit of professionals for hire hailing from across the galaxy," reads the game description. "Hawks and Zero Company are recruited for an operation that pits them against an emerging threat that will consume the galaxy if left unchecked. To succeed, Hawks will lead a team of uneasy allies who must set aside their differences to overcome nearly impossible odds." You can catch the Star Wars Zero Company extended gameplay reveal at the Summer Game Fest showcase that's kicking off on Friday at 2 pm PT / 5 pm ET.
    • All their other games always had a new cast and new story, so that's not very surprising. The new dev is worrisome though.
