Neysmith transferring...

[crawfish]

Not a big surprise, he was going to have to make some serious improvement to get any PT in the next year. Sad, but not unexpected.

I suppose this also keeps the door open for Clark's possible return.

Good luck, Tony.

Jinx! I just posted this on the Patillo thread :D

I do know that they were looking to give a scholly to WW's teammate (Franklin, I think), but he would come in as a preferred walk-on. They might to do that with the open scholly.

Bummer. In the little action I saw him in this season, I liked the kid. I hope he gets some PT wherever he goes.

[Mad Dog Madsen]

Best of luck to Tony in the future. Any word on where he may transfer to?

No offense and I know there is not a lot of love for Clark, but I would rather see Clark get the scholly and come back. Maybe he would not take it for granted this time.

[soonerfan28]

He had St Johns and Charlotte in the final 3 with OU, so maybe they would get back in on him. I wouldn't mind seeing Tubby get him at Minnesota.

This is good news. And I mean that with all due respect for Neysmith.

It's starting to look like there just won't be room for player's like Neysmith under Capel. Tony was a really hard worker and I appreciated the way he played in his limited action. And I am sure given more PT at a smaller program, he can have himself a solid career-- and I hope he does-- and I wish him the best.

However, if this is a sign that our program only has "room" for bigger, more talented players, then that's a good sign.

Stupid Calvin Simpson running players off. :Kelvin:

Didn't I hear that Keith Clark was considered a good kid and team player by Coach Capel? Wasn't he reportedly upset that he let himself and the team down by his efforts in classes hurting the team?

[Ash]

It would be nice if things worked out for everyone that came here, but that's not the way it works. Tony can find a place where he'll play more and make more of an impact.

[birddog]

good luck tony, we hardly knew ye.

i always thought he'd be a great defensive stopper while he continued to improve his jumpshot. i hope he gets a chance to do that elsewhere.

Don't know, but anyone bashing Moose will likely feel the wrath of LilSooner. ;)

Good luck, Tony.

i hope kc gets another shot. i lost my scholarship under the same circumstances and refocused on my schoolwork and got a second chance.

IF he's able to meet all the requirements, he'll be a great addition to our frontcourt and i'll welcome him with open arms because he didn't quit. that says alot about his dedication.

come on back, keith.

[LilSooner]

Yeah you bastards. Watch what you say, I have an itch neg finger.

[OUmillenium]

So do we know where Tony N is going?

[King Crimson]

I have an itch neg finger.

is that what the girls are calling it these days?

[soonerfan28]

So do we know where Tony N is going?

He's from Georgia and Georgia hasn't met the limit on scholarships, so maybe he'll wind up there. Nothing to back that up, just a thought.

Exactly... Somehow, the mindless Kelvin bashers will find a way to make this one HIS fault, 'cause Kelvin is the only college coach that has players transfer. Ever.

Is there a smiley for exasperation?

Well, I didn't see this posted anywhere but, if anybody cares Tony will be transferring to Auburn.

[soonerfan28]

Is Auburn any good?

[Mad Dog Madsen]

No, not really. They had a 14-16 record and were last in their conference at 4-12

So he should get playing time after sitting out a year? I'm not bashing him just saying that he's a pretty good player on a not so good team.
