March 29, 201610 yr Back in December Austin Grandstaff transferred out to Oklahoma. This morning it was announced that Daniel Giddens was transferring out, and that AJ Harris was likely to do the same. Just now it was announced that Mickey Mitchell was transferring as well. Now, I know none of these guys were the "elite" guys on the roster, but 4 guys in the same class all transferring out at the same time? Seems odd. Is there something going on?
March 29, 201610 yr You never know anymore these days. I think the UK women had 3-4 girls transfer out before January and it turned out to be nothing. This could be the same type of case or it could be signaling trouble in paradise. We shall see.
March 29, 201610 yr Thad's health is bad, very bad, and I know every off-season he struggles with whether or not to keep plugging away. Perhaps he has told the team he is unable to continue. Or, as PP alluded to, it could be nothing. Or, it could be Thad recruited a bill-of-goods and he has "suggested" to them that they should look elsewhere for opportunities for playing time.
March 29, 201610 yr Author Never knew there were health concerns with him. He's quite young still, isn't he?
March 29, 201610 yr Never knew there were health concerns with him. He's quite young still, isn't he? Under 50, yes. Back is bad, general health is bad, he runs very hot a lot, very myopic lifestyle, no balance in his life...in general, bad overall health. Great wife, good dude, mostly, but lives a very hoops-centric life (as compared to other folks in the same job, I don't mean compared to you or I) and is literally burning himself out.
March 29, 201610 yr I've always liked Thad. I hope this is nothing and I hope he gets his health on track. Ironically it sounds like he may need an Urban Meyer type of break to get his health on track.

March 30, 201610 yr Buckeyes I.M.O. need to hit Wisconsin for some big men and look in their own back yard for some guards.
March 30, 201610 yr Keep an eye on Giddens I guess you're referring to this. Ohio State transfer Daniel Giddens is considering Kentucky, Florida, FSU, Tennessee, Georgia, and Mississippi State, source told @CBSSports.
March 30, 201610 yr The SEC is easier than the BIG but, he has no chance of playing much for Kentucky. I.M.O.
