ISU G Boozer leaves team after arrest

NCAA Basketball Betting Lines

05/03/2010 - Ames, IA (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Iowa State guard Charles Boozer has decided to leave the team to seek treatment for undisclosed reasons.

"I want to apologize for my actions that put Iowa State University in a negative light," Boozer said in a statement on Monday. "I have decided that the best course action right now is to finish my semester and then seek treatment."

The 6-foot-3 junior's announcement comes after he was reportedly arrested Saturday on charges of assault. According to The Ames Tribune, Boozer was arrested after a woman informed police that he slapped and kicked her.

"After visiting with Charles last night, I feel that his decision to leave the program is in the best interest for both parties," said new Iowa State head coach Fred Hoiberg. "Charles had a terrible lapse in judgment and I sincerely hope that he learns from his mistake and can land on his feet."

Boozer averaged 3.5 points 1.5 rebounds in 16 games last season before a torn ACL ended his season.

He is the younger brother of Utah Jazz star Carlos Boozer.

Pro Football Odds : NFC SOUTH BETTING ODDS

NFL Sports Betting

NFL betting action is back! At MySportsbook, all of the pro football odds are posted for the NFC North. Check out how we see the four teams in this cloudy division stacking up this year in the chase for the playoffs! Green Bay Packers (+125) - With QB Aaron Rodgers leading the offense and DC Dom Capers working his magic on defense, the Packers are a real force to be reckoned with.

Virtually nothing changed on this offense for Green Bay from last year to this year, save for the addition of rookie OT Brian Bulaga to the bunch. Expect more huge numbers from the Pack, and a relatively favorable schedule should get them over the hump and into the playoffs once again this season. My NFL Betting Predictions: 11-5, 1st place in NFC North Minnesota Vikings (+130) - There are still too many unknowns about the Vikes this year. There is a huge difference between QB Brett Favre and either Tarvaris Jackson or Sage Rosenfels under center. Plus, is Favre comes back, is he really going to be able to keep his pick total under double digits again? Depth at running back looked like it might have been an issue with RB Chester Taylor fleeing in free agency, but drafting RB Toby Gerhart should pick up the difference. This defense is still suitable, but with a first place schedule, making the playoffs is going to be very tough regardless of whether #4 comes back or not.

Chicago Bears (+350) - The Bears are probably a bit of an overhyped team once again this year.No, we don't think it is plausible for QB Jay Cutler to have as bad of a season as he did last year, and we do think the additions of RB Chester Taylor and DE Julius Peppers are going to help immensely, but there's still something in the water in the Windy City that we aren't so sure about. Maybe Chicago finds its way to .500... but then again, maybe it doesn't. If Favre comes back, Cutler might be the worst quarterback in this division this year.

Detroit Lions (+1500) - The Lions are probably once again going to be the whipping boys for the rest of the teams in the NFC North, but they aren't just going to roll over and die once again. There is some real talent amassing on this team offensively, as the combination of QB Matt Stafford, RB Jahvid Best, WR Calvin Johnson, and TE Brandon Pettigrew should put a bunch of points on the board if the offensive line can even remotely hold up. The questions really lie on defense, where it feels like DT Ndamukong Suh is going to be trying to stop opposing teams all by himself. This year should show some marked improvement in the Motor City.

The Patriots will make NFL betting fans a lot of money this season, get in early and enjoy the cash.
