As sick as this makes me feel, when I'm realistic about it I really can't say I'm surprised (IF it's true, and it sounds like people who would know are hinting that it is). When you read the stuff written in the Seth Curry Hype thread, everything focuses on how stupid everyone else in the NCAA was to let him slip through their fingers. After a while, that kind of thing starts to make a kid think. And more importantly, it starts to make other coaches and ADs think.

I'm actually surprised this hasn't happened to LU more often -- kid gets overlooked by the "big schools" in recruiting, decides to go play for a school like LU where he knows he can get playing time, then uses the hype around his performance to snag a spot at one of the bigger schools that ignored him before. My concern as a coach or AD would be whether Seth's record-setting performance would have been possible if he'd been in an ACC school -- same thing an NBA coach would be thinking, I guess.

IF it's true, I can't wish Seth anything but the best, though I hope he doesn't find himself a little fish in a much bigger pond once he transfers.

I heard Anthony Smith won't be back next year as well.

We got a new verbal from Bo Barnes, a 6'4" guard from Arizona. We didn't have a scholarship for him unless someone left. It's starting to look like we know who that is now. Still hoping it isn't true, but I'm pretty positive about the future regardless.

We very may well have another one as well.

Another scholarship or another commitment?

or another transfer?

[jcmanson]

Another scholarship or another commitment?

both

AHHHH Im just gonna play that game online where you shoot the cat out of the cannon and see how far it goes until 5:01

Gotta love addictinggames.com. My favorite is the Bloons series.

Good one, but I really like bowman 2.

[JDUB]

is it too late for Floyd to untransfer?

where is he transferring to?

[PAmedic]

At least he went out with a bang. Can't say that about everyone who won't be here next year.

what makes you think he would want to, or have the option to?

seth isn't the reason he was losing playing time, or the reason he left

[olldflame]

Rodeo Cowboys have to be some of the toughest human beings on the planet. They make hockey players look like sissies. Jesse would probably be good at it too.

[Cider Jim]

Like Tennyson said, "Tis better to have loved and lost than never to have loved at all."

[Rooster Cogburn]

He wouldn't bee transferring if a "deal" wasn't already in place!

And if true some school is going to get in some hot water with the NCAA!

What kind of world is it where shuk is completely right on something and Rooster is completely wrong?

So, if some on here are saying he's going to an ACC school, how's that not a deal. I am just saying there may have at least been a conversation. If not he's leaving with no place to go, which is dumb. Be real.

Is there a reason why the SID's or Chris Lang are not on top of this? Why is it some random message board poster gets the scoop? And why no hint of trouble amongst the team all season and then...wam transfer rumors all over after one of the better years in program history?

I don't know the real answer but many here have suggested that that is one of the reasons.

not to mention story after story about how tight all of these guys are with each other.

Tennyson was an idiot.

Paul Simon said it best: A rock feels no pain... and an island never cries.

[TheLouder]

so if this is for real this makes me wonder if he just didnt give up last night? I may be wrong, but isnt that a thought in anyone else's head?

[Cider Jim]

Plus, Tennyson was saying that about another guy: a 19th century man crush.

[olldflame]

I don't think Brolin could have legally signed with another program yet, so theoretically he could return, but if his reasons for leaving are personall issues as stated, it would make no sense.

Random message poster is probably close friends with someone who is close friends with Seth. He probably knew before the SIDs knew.

Chris has to go through the official channels. He can't write stories based on "someone created an anonymous username and posted on an internet message board that LU's star player was leaving".

The entire "anonymous people" posting is what got the N&A in hot water with LU in the first place.

No the random poster is someone who has no information on the matter whatsoever and is just messing around.

I have not seen one person, who would have information on the matter (and there are people on this board who do), who have been posting to correct this.

If this was some idiot making an April Fool's Day joke a few days earlier... wouldn't someone have spoken up?

[flamesfilmguy]

Phenom is the one i'm talking about. The reason everyone else hasn't discounted it is because It very well may be up tonight on the website. but you know and i know that none of that can be made public by us. so all i'm going to say is that phenom has no idea what he's talking about and is just jerking everyone's chain.
