James Akinjo Leaving Georgetown

[UconnPT2007]

Akinjo was an Ollie guy and why waste a scholarship on a player with this potential baggage who will only be here 1 year. We’re all set with Bouk, Cole, Gaffney, and Adams for next year. It makes no sense on his end either - he’s better off going to a low end P5 school and being the best player like he was at Georgetown until today.

By “this way,” do you mean transfers in general or taking second chances on kids with possible disciplinary issues? I think Hurley disagrees with you on the former.

Both. He isn't building the program around transfers, especially not other peoples problems.

He’s not as allergic to them as you seem to want him to be either. We’ll never rely on them, but there will be more R.J. Coles in the future.

According to reddit it’s more than what’s been speculated. Which is incredible

do you a link for reddit?

 

[TRest]

I doubt UConn wants to enter the BE fresh off poaching transfers from another BE school, regardless of baggage.

lol. I really shouldn't have to explain to you how different a situation brigning in RJ Cole is.

Ollie was building the program on transfers.

If it’s weed let’s not act like he killed someone...

If it was weed, Ewing would buy them more before he kicked them off of the team.

Yikes. Good for Ewing, if true.

If anything it would piss off Cole or Gaffney. I'd rather have another pure shooter next year than a point guard, but Akinjo has talent

You are bad culture.

 

[krinklecut]

Word around reddit and twitter is not good. We will want nothing to do with these guys.

 

[AdamaNation]

Wow. That’s big to lose two players mid season. Wonder what happened?

Well we lost 3 post season and were left with an undersized 2 gd and a gimpy pt

Just wanted to make sure you’re prepared for Hurley to bring in individual transfers when he sees fit.

Low end P5? Have you seen him play? He has played against some elite teams and has performed great
You sound like KO/UConn was the only team after him
Oh I get it, it's the KO thing
Not saying that DH should entertain even looking at him, pending the outcome of this latest action, but to think he couldn't help UConn is ridiculous.
As with JB, if Akinjo did do something "stupid", I hope he learns from it, take his medicine and comes out a better person

Akinjo cannot transfer here.

UConn has agreed to abide to all of the Big East’s rules from the date of the contract on - the Big East does not permit intra-conference transfers in basketball.

That aside, they would not be interested in this one even if the rule did not exist....

 

[GHSWolverines]

Even drugs probably isn't getting you kicked off a team seven games in unless you're dealing hard stuff. Especially when you'r the star player. There's only one thing I can think of that would be immediate termination.

which is?

 

[UConnRock]

He will go back to the west coast. If misdeeds are not damning Hopkins will be all over him

If only Larry Eustachy were still at Colorado State...

Can we still fight about it here though?

Let’s just call it mistreatment of others

 

[5rings]

which is?

I'm new so I don't know what is and isn't allowed here. Allegedly it's sexual in nature. Allegedly.

Found on the Georgetown board

Edit:
Taking down the photo. A filing for a restraining order against two Georgetown players. Akinjo not named

Rumor is sexual assault and multiple instances of theft. Just post the rumor here, some people love to feel important
