Nate Miles was originally slated to be back in Connecticut tomorrow for a court appearance regarding the protective order taken out against him by a 19-year-old female UConn student. However, Miles won’t appear at Rockville Superior Court, and the case will be continued to Tuesday, Dec. 16.

Miles is currently enrolled at the College of Southern Idaho, a junior college. As a transfer, he’s unable to play for the basketball team until February, but is taking classes, along with his court-ordered counseling for violating a restraining order at UConn back in September.

With Miles’ classes ending on Dec. 10, and with more counseling to be done, it makes more sense for his case to be continued on Dec. 16. (Lots of things going on in mid-December: Stanley Robinson and, hopefully for the Huskies, Ater Majok are both expected to join UConn’s roster right around that time).

Miles is handling things well out in Idaho, we’re told, but he would love to be back in Storrs next year. He was expelled from UConn on Oct. 2 after appearing before a two-person hearing board. Miles’ appeal of the expulsion was denied, and it appears his only avenue for a return could be by meeting before the school’s Board of Trustees.
