James Akinjo Leaving Georgetown

[B1GEast]

Mal, Carey, Akinjo, a lot of guys that we wanted that didn't end up here, probably for the better

 

[Dooooooomed]

Not saying we want him, but Akinjo has shown he can play at the high major level (unlike MAL/Carey).

 

[marti3td]

Pass.

 

[jibsey]

This isn’t about wanting him. What did they do? Who leaves mid season? 13 points per game and he doesn’t want to play? What happened here?

 

[UConnSwag11]

Pass

So talked to a friend of mine who works there.

Its really bad.

As in Akinjo did something bad...or revolt against Ewing bad?

 

[Dooooooomed]

Do tell. The facts will change perception.

Please expound.

You hear about "the list"?

 

[Towney007]

Not gonna touch this one, guys.

All I’m gonna say is if it’s true, Ewing did the right thing and should be commended.

 

[Da_Aisijimo_Gou]

Thinking back, any examples of 2 Georgetown players departing several games into any of Ewings’ seasons? Yes, everything was absolutely above board.

 

[KingAG]

Sheesh. Never mind. I’ll Pass

Why let us know that you know if you wont spill the beans..dont blue ball us like that

Does Georgetown own a car wash?

 

[Horatio]

Remember, we are going to the Big East next year. There is no way Georgetown is letting either of these guys play in the BE.

Crazy thought but what if one of them were transferring to UConn next semester while UConn was still in the AAC and then that would prevent GT from blocking the transfer?

Because until it’s reported I’m spreading nothing factual and it’s hearsay about college kids.

But I can tell you - it’s bad, SOUNDS like Ewing did the right thing and I wouldn’t be making transfer plans or want that in our program - which for our purposes should be enough.

 

[Slick]

I'd take him back

No way

 

[Dooooooomed]

yikes, if true.

I assumed as much for a mid season removal from the team. No thanks. We do not need that.

 

[nomar]

I can c_nf_rm

 

[ToolzieFan]

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

It doesn’t sound like it’s weed, based on the vague posts.

 

[Towney007]

It’s not weed.

 

[StingLykOllie]

There’s some speculation on a reddit thread about it. Seems pretty terrible.

 

[willie99]

My gut tells me it's something ugly, although they haven't been expelled and that's a mitigating factor

 

[80shusky]

Nope. If players with their talent are getting kicked out there's a reason. UConn doesn't need that reason on their roster.

 

[5rings]

That's too bad. Ewing seems like a pretty good dude and deserves better. To have your season or multiple seasons blow up because of a couple knuckleheads is pretty terrible.
