Jeremy Fears - Out of BU?

[That Guy]

Now that I think about it, I did not see JF scrimmaging at the Rob today...

[matt714gd]

Man...that just ruined my day. He might have been the difference in our NCAA tourney hopes.....

[BU1999]

I have no idea if this is true or not, but if it is you can't mourn the loss of someone
who doesn't want to play here. I hope it isn't true.

How could he leave, he already has sat out what a year and a half at least? He has used up his redshirt year and if he went some place else in D1 he would sit out another year. I think he would end up with one year left.......I hope this is all BS and that he is still part of the team. If its true then he has thrown away most of his college playing time..........

[CLBravesfan]

perhaps, if this is true, JF is a person that would disrupt the team. He obviously had problems at Ohio and perhaps he is not a "team" player. Perhaps he has a problem working with what the coaches wants and getting along with teammates.

Please remember I said "Perhaps" just speculating

Did I nod off and wake up in the middle of a bad dream???

JF possibly leaving.....JC injures shoulder

April Fools was a couple of weeks ago. Friday the 13th was just last week.....

What the @#$%& is going on around here?

I'm gonna have to stick with the spirit of this post. What in the (#*&?

I hope this is not true, It would greatly reduce my expactations for next year if he's gone.

Noooooooooooooo. He's just one player. We'll be OK. A team can never acheive greatness if one player dictates the way things are done. We still have MANY good players

So how good would have the 1988 Braves been without Hawkins?

Sorry to state the obvious, but Jeremy Fears is not Hersey Hawkins.

Great point GTD... Hope the Fears rumor is just that and will prove to be false?!?!?!?!?

This is the kind of stuff that happens with immature kids. Never let your happiness with anything rest on the shoulders of people that cannot be depended on. Find hope, happiness and satisfaction elsewhere other than college basketball as it is just entertainment, period.

OK, how good would the sweet sixteen team have been without POB? All I am saying is one player can have a great impact on the outcome. How about, how good would BU have been if Crouch would not have gotten injured last year?

I'm confused on how all these rumors and talk about about a player and his constitution can be helpful to the team and the community.

Doesn't this board have policy alongs these lines? Seems to me there is!

Sorry I'm not seeing anything wrong here Bob. No one is ripping Fears or anyone else. George is just stating that college kids in general can be immature and unreliable and that we should not pin our hopes on any of them since they can all be fickle at times (am I reading your comments right, George? ).

Remember, this is a message board and much of what is posted here could be construed as rumor. Now, if a player is personally ripped then I agree with you. It is up to the Moderators to delete that post.

I get your point Dog. However, we really don't know how good Fears is. He sounds like a great individual talent but no one really knows what kind of a team player he is.

Remember, both Hersey and POB were relatively unheralded out of high school (unlike many players that have been brought into college programs with a resume of greatness and promise that was never to be fulfilled). Both Hawk and POB turned out to be great team players and "above-average" talents.

Often, in college, players make themselves and step up when the situation arises. I have no doubt that someone will step up and be the team superstar and leader just like Hawk did.
