Is transferring per Verbal Commits. I'm sure most here are surprised

I always thought he had a good basketball IQ and worked hard. Despite VERY limited PT this year, he stayed positive and I wish him the best, absolutely.

Great kid, knowing what the eventual outcome would be stayed with it. Hope he excels wherever he lands.

But he practiced and waited for the season to end to announce.

I think he is giving Jimmy credit for not walking away mid season...just a guess. I would also think Ray Charles would know this wasn't voluntary.

I'm sure the Junkyard Dog will land on his feet. If he plays DII he won't have the same height problem he's had to deal with at this level. I would imagine the staff helped him find a good situation for him to go to. Good luck Jimmy!

I doubt I need to declare that I generally like Patsos, but I do question how he handled Paige.
First, I don't know how he ended up being a non-fit in Patsos' (and staff's?) eyes. What we saw of him last year made me think he could have helped us this season.
Second, if you know that you'll be heading in a different direction, why play him at all? Let him red shirt so he can keep that extra year and play right away somewhere else in D1 if that's where he lands.
Would be interested to know why things were handled as they were. Everyone speculates, but I doubt any of us really know.

It's taken three years, but I finally understand the "logic" behind having the End Of Season Banquet immediately after the final regular season game. Siena saves a bundle by being able to find a smaller banquet room since they won't have to find one big enough to accommodate the "elephant in the room" that follows our Program each year.
Double congratulations to the Huerter's - Kevin has been selected as one of only eight HS players to compete in a three point shooting contest at the Final Four and now that Paige's ship has sailed, Tommy should have his status raised from walk-on to a counter!
