April fools? I can't tell

He tweeted at ryan boat right.... GOOD SIGN!!!!!

No, he is transferring - for some reason, the linked tweet isn't showing up in the guy's timeline.

 

[FeedTheDove]

He and boat have been tweeting at each other. He has followed a couple people on the team as well as KO, and KO followed him... Not that it means much... But its something!

I'm wondering.... if Purvis wants to transfer to UConn and UConn is still hoping for an ACC invite, what are the odds that NC State would block UConn as one of the schools Purvis could transfer to? If the ACC accepts UConn at some point, Purvis could be facing his former coach/school. I'm not sure most coaches would allow that. Hmmm. Thoughts?

That's a non-issue.

This site seems to think Purvis to Uconn is a done deal http://fansided.com/2013/04/01/report-rodney-purvis-to-transfer-to-uconn/

Sa-nizzle! I do not know who they are but I hope they are right.

Ok, time for my heard-it-from-a-friend-who-heard-it-from-a-friend story:

My buddy's coworker's brother goes to NCSU and apparently knows some of the bball players. Supposedly Purvis is transferring to UConn.

I don't know why I'm writing this because it is third hand information and I can't begin to guess about the validity of it, but take it for what it's worth.

I like all of your friends in that chain.

@RyanTice: It's official,NCSU has granted Rodney Purvis his release to any school except ACC schools & Notre Dame, Louisville, Pitt, Cuse, Mizzou & Cin

 

[tcf15]

Mizzou and Cincy are on that list because NC State has upcoming OOC games with them.

Mizzou & Cin are interesting blocks. Any educated speculation on why these two teams would be nixed?

Thanks for the quick answer tcf!

Interesting Mizzou & Cincy are on there since they aren't going to be ACC schools. I can see the others.

Why Cin? Because they are next to jump to the ACC?

I'd be very surprised if he is not a Husky. No inside information, just a gut feeling.

good thing we're not playing them again this year

LOL - If we beat them earlier this year, NC State probably would have said "Noooo" to UConn.
