March 22, 200719 yr With Alford out at Iowa I'm hearing Smith is looking to transfer. Let the games begin again...
March 22, 200719 yr I've heard that UK and Memphis could be possible destinations, although UC would definitely be a player as well. Apparently he likes Tennessee, but his family and he can't stand Bruce Pearl... Should be interesting.
March 22, 200719 yr With Alford out at Iowa I'm hearing Smith is looking to transfer. Let the games begin again... See, he should have gone to Kentucky in the 1st place. :D
March 22, 200719 yr See, he should have gone to Kentucky in the 1st place. :D I read somewhere, may not be true, that the reason he picked Iowa was the security of the head coach....:lol: He's a talent that's for sure, but he comes with a lot of baggage. Not sure I'd want him at UK.
March 22, 200719 yr Well this makes things very very intresting now. So will he have to sit or no, isn't there some kind of rule aboue that if a coach leaves?
March 22, 200719 yr I know that UK has only two scholarships available. Let's just say he wanted to transfer to UK. Would his scholarship count toward this year, or the year after since he would have to sit out a year.
March 22, 200719 yr What have his stats been like at UM? 14.9 pts. 4.9 rbs. 3.6 ast. 1.5 stl. .3 blk. in 33.7 min. Those stats are almost Legendary for a Frosh.

March 22, 200719 yr Author I read somewhere, may not be true, that the reason he picked Iowa was the security of the head coach....:lol: That was here and I was the one blasting the thought of job security at Iowa. I doubt you see UC back in the mix if he does transfer, but you never know. Mick was in tight with him and almost closed the deal...
March 22, 200719 yr Author Apparently he likes Tennessee, but his family and he can't stand Bruce Pearl... Funny story. Guess who I'm hearing Iowa is targeting for the job... :sssh:
March 22, 200719 yr Funny story. Guess who I'm hearing Iowa is targeting for the job... :sssh: Well if thats the case he will be gone for sure.
March 22, 200719 yr Author Well if thats the case he will be gone for sure. Just a refresher on the situation. Smith signed a LOI to play in the 05 class at UT, but wanted out of his LOI when Pearl was hired. Pearl said no and Smith was forced to Prep School for a year because of it. That's why he said coaching stability was paramount in his choice of a school...
