So in other words you're saying Percy is going to pull a Scalabrine and come back as Fred's assistant coach in 3 years? NICE!
Percy Gibson transferring

You just did. Literally in the two sentences before that.
For the tenth time, that word in programming calls up the demons. Avoid like the plague. Google it.
imo percy freshman year was this best season by far, he just didnt play with the same energy in the last 2 seasons
If Percy wants to sit a year he will have no problems landing with a D1 school. If he wants to play next year he obviously can't go D1. It's all up to him, and he will have no problems finding a home. He will have a successful year wherever he goes, assuming he doesn't go to another loaded team.
He started for a team that won a tournament game and was eliminated by the National Champions.

Percy was a great cyclone. I personally knew one of the players on the team and they said Percy (along with SDW) are the funniest guys in the locker room. Percy was always enthusiastic even when he wasn't playing. I'm bummed hes going but its pretty obvious he'd struggle to get minutes next year. I really hope he just tears it up wherever he lands. Thanks for your efforts and time to cyclonenation Percy!
Couldn't handle not getting playing time even though it was obvious he wasn't ready to play at this level quite yet. Came in and would just jack up a 3 every time he got the ball. He could be a high volume shooter sure, but he was a blackhole with the ball. He couldn't handle not working harder and getting himself into the rotation so he just up and quit in the middle of the season.
Side note: it seems so idiotic to just quit in the middle of the year. He quit end of the non-conference schedule. So transfer either way, now or at the end of the season and he still sits out a year. He would of been better served to at least be practicing against Big 12 players and weight training and getting coached by Hoiberg and staff instead of quitting and just trying to stay in shape on his own. Unless he transferred to Northern Arizona at semester and was with their team for the 2nd half of the season.
Either way, not cool
What's not cool is bashing a kid without any actual knowledge of the situation.
Bluford flunked out of school and had no choice but to leave... bash him for his academics, not for saying he pulled a "Lucca" leaving mid season.
How do you flunk out of school in one semester? Do they no longer have academic probation?
On that point, how does an athlete flunk out of school? You obviously had the minimum scores to get in, have all the help in the world to pass, have something to work for besides just a degree, and have a team depending on you. Goood gracious.
