In his column on Friday, Kosmo wrote about how he felt Oak Park's boys basketball team had the capability of making a run in the upcoming state tournament. Well, Kosmo might have to rescind that thought given what's taken place this season with the Knights.
Oak Park certainly isn't the team Kosmo thought it would be at the beginning of the year. Star guard K'allante Miller struggled with eligibility issues and was finally removed from the team a couple of weeks ago. Not only that, but head coach George T. Ward was removed as head coach for an alleged altercation with a player, although Kosmo must point out that it's "alleged." Regardless, the coach and star player are not on the team anymore. There's still some talent on the Knights, but given their turmoil, it's hard to imagine them pulling together for the state tournament.
