Here is the story at Cougfan.
The X-Man Leaveth… ugh.
If you’re looking for someone to make you feel better and tell you this is no big deal, look elsewhere. This rumor has been spinning for a while now, and Coach Bone certainly did his best to make sure the rumor-mill kept spinning at a fever pitch. Well, no more speculating. One of our top young players is transferring. In some places you’ll actually hear talk of how Thames was just a backup point guard and those “grow on trees”. I laugh reading that kind of stuff while watching not one, but two teams advance to the Final 4 on the strength of the back-up point guards. Whatever helps ya sleep at night! I guess in some folks minds we just have more talent on our last place team then we have room for.
Good luck to you, X. Count me as one who thinks you ended up on the wrong end of the coach’s pet sweepstakes. Some lucky team is going to love having you on board.
Oh, Anthony Brown is transferring too.
