Just to put this out there for a Friday rumor that will probably back-fire on me...

I've got it from three sources that one more guard (name withheld by me) will transfer out in the coming weeks. I heard the rumor first about two months ago but have since received two more sources very close to the matter with corroborating information.

Note: The paperwork isn't final but it appears this departure is almost a done deal. If the stories are correct, this departure isn't because of playing time or anything else going on. The player simply needs to go to a place where the academics better suit him.

academic better suit him= not Mike Taylor. Unless Taylor transfers to DMAC.

My guess and pure speculation by me. Our transfer is Cory Johnson..


Just a guess. No substance.

I took "academics better suit him" as meaning that someone is transferring to a less rigorous academic environment. I don't see anyone on the team transferring to MIT.

Edit: Someone anonymously left me negative rep for this post, saying "hes not a guard." Since they didn't leave a name, I'll respond here: I never said he was, the person I quoted said he was. I was merely arguing it wasn't Cory on a different point.

Sounds like Taylor, since he went JUCO in the first place and was having problems his first semester until GMAC made an example out of him.

If I recall, Dunson was a very good student at his prep school. Wesley doesn't seem to have academic issues. Any other guard wouldn't be missed much, unless it was a recruit.

Err, Wesley's not a guard, and there are no other (scholarship) guards other than Mike & Dodie.

I agree it's most likely Taylor, but either way it'll suck going into another season with an all new backcourt.

Any new rumored JUCO guards out there?
