Only been here a few months, not sure what happened but obviously something is up....
He's not starting so he picked up his ball and went home.

Was a nice pickup, but I don't think secondary was necessarily our biggest area of need in the portal. Would have liked to see him stay around but I can understand him moving on if he wanted to be a starter and was basically told he was more of a depth/rotational player - though realistically, the third or fourth CB on the team gets a lot of playing time.

I guess that spot will fall more to Cam Miller so hopefully he can step up.

He packed his bags and he’s heading straight into the storm (for Springsteen fans).

I thought you could only transfer without sitting out once, and if you went in the portal again, you had to sit a year? I could be wrong

Well whatever the story Storm had his feathers ruffled, and he’s on the next Southbound skein.

I hope he completes a few classes this semester and earns some credits so he has something to take with him. But I'm guessing this wasn't about the academics.

I find it hard to believe he would not have already had a clear picture of his place on the depth chart at the time he committed. Has something changed since then?

CAM Miller and possibly true Freshman Elliott Washington.

Washington was the key here.
Storm is a very good player and student btw but I think the staff really liked their top 4 with Washington getting time at 5. Dixon, King, Miller and Hardy are your top 4.

Was looking forward to hearing his name announced... welp it was fun while it lasted.
Well,
According to Shakespeare.....

Storm Duck was a lovely name and individual that could contribute to our team fellows tremendously. He chose not to, so be it...

He never played in a game.
I thought he was a grad transfer, but if not I thought he would have to sit out a year. I thought it was based on your enrollment in a school whether you played or not. either way he will have to finish the academic spring term with GPA to ensure he can play anywhere else in the fall. It is too late to drop, so he has to get the grades to play.
