Rumor???

[Sooner23]

If TJ's gone, then replace him with Dominique Raney. Thanks in advance.

 

[Max Power]

If Taylor does leave, OU needs to sign someone that can contribute....can't afford to sign another player that sits on the bench.

Again he would have contributed had he not gotten a concussion, he has a college ready body, and better handles than newell

It's all TJ, I actually applaud Capel on the move. :clap seriously impressed from what I hear.

If you don't mind me asking, was it legal type trouble? Concussion related? This has me extremely curious because we haven't heard a single thing from the media or school.

i'm guessing this is similar to when patillo chose to redshirt when capel wanted him to play.

Unless we're just dying for a point guard/combo type I would take Richardson over Raney. Brings more to the table.

I mean 90% of the claims on here turn out to be false.

That number is way too high, if you only consider people who come on here and say they have a close source to the situation. The ones who have good info are pretty accurate, I don't know of many who frequently say this will happen per a source and it doesn't happen. Now are predictions wrong? All the time. But predictions are imagination, not rumors with sources.

 

[kbsooner]

so we have 2 ships open now for next season?

It would appear so.

Really weird to me.

TJ seemed to be one of the players most pumped to get to Norman and get on the floor. I wonder what got into him?

 

[chico got game]

Remember when a source posted that Ahmed was back on the team, but never actually was yet so many people on this board bought into it?

If this true it sucks, but I'll wait until I hear something more official than internet messageboard posting.

100% gone i only speak on the true facts if u ever notice i dont post on here like most of u guys,take it from me nolonger a rumor he is gone.

Nothing legal per se. Not concussion from what i hear, what happened could be a result of concussion but probably bad habits picked up from hanging with questionable people. Possibly someone who would associate with the WR from Iowa.

Great. Just great. :facepalm

 

[stanley11]

He is gone. It was not an issue with grades, teammates, law, or the concussion. What's left? :facepalm

smh...college basketball doesn't even have a bowl season! :facepalm

I kept hearing how Capel was going to reevaluate the way he recruits by looking more into the recruits character and it looks like Capel misjudged another one.

I don't think so. I think kids are going to make mistakes and one was made. You can't know everything about a kid. Maybe it was the first time, i don't think it was a prevalent thing to my knowledge.

I just think Capel isn't going to allow anything, not even a 1 time offense any more. The kids that are here now have been 'angels' per se this year and have not caused any problems.

I'm proud of him for getting rid of a kid that could be of definite use to us this year and into the future and not putting the integrity of the program at risk any more.

 

[red recluse]

hard to evaluate character.

capel's fortunate in that the general public doesn't really know tj is a member of the team. his loss doesn't mean as much to them as it does to the message boarders, thus the hot seat isn't much warmer than it was.

This implies drug use, but I would never say that without further proof. If Capel has a zero tolerance policy for drug use and TJ broke the rule, then it is understandable for Capel to let him go. If the drug use is a one time thing brought on by Concussion Depression, I would hope that Capel would give him a second chance.

***This is pure speculation based on the above post. I have no direct knowledge of the situation.****

 

[SoonerBabyy]

if hes gone whyy havent we seen anything yet about it? still on ss.com sooo im not sure i believe this just yet

 

[MercedeSooner]

oh well time to move on. we all thought TJ had great potential but if he can't keep his head on straight the last thing we need is another troublemaker. Hopefully Capel takes advantage of the extra ship opening up to bring in some solid talent.

 

[CMSOONER]

Taylor is still on the roster on SS. If he was gone why he would he not be taken off like Ahmed?
