Declares for the draft but retains his eligibility to return.

G league at best at this point in his career. Look at how many times Cam Reynolds or Mel Frazier have actually played in the NBA. He's not as good as either of them.

Agree that he won't be drafted but I'm not so sure he'll be back. He was very inconsistent, shot under 30% from 3 (on a lot of shots) and didn't seem to have a lot of answers when defenses stacked up to prevent him driving to the hoop. With a bunch of other guards coming on board and coming up, he may not be looking forward to another season of tough love from Coach Hunter.

Hope Hightower returns. Still wish Thompson could return and that Lawson would decide to return.

I may have been wrong?

I would be very excited if that was the case, but that’s impossible. Looks like Charlie Russel is also transferring from the team as well. Not too worried about that loss

Seriously, what does Hunter have to do with this?

Crazy story. Looks very tragic on all sides.

This alleged crime took place 3 weeks after students left campus. "Show Me" please explain.

No sale.

I'm shocked as hell as I hadn't heard anything negative about Teshaun. He was an academic all-SEC player. And he was 480 miles from campus, and had been off campus for a few weeks. I cannot make Hunter the fallout guy for this.

Too harsh to blame this on Hunter but I was only one to point out when he was hired that the type of players he recruited at Ga St were not exemplary student athletes and we couldn’t expect that would change at Tulane. Had serious reservations about the hire.

Yes, I’m piling on but I’m pissed. I did not think Hunter’s resume deserved a call for TD to hire him. Not Monday morning. Said it at the time. I was hoping I was wrong and he could change.

We were 4-27 with a loss to the worst team in the SWAC! His resume deserved a call.

Hunter’s résumé was arguably better than any coach we’ve hired in a long time.
