Austin Reaves transferring

What bothered me was that WSU arranged for the surgeries Reaves needed to be able to play. He had surgeries both summers before he played. He got no summer workouts, got no strength work. We didn't really get a chance to see what he could do. He needed a year off in the worst way.
Now he's getting that year off. He has a chance to do strength work and get into summer ball with his team, and all that is happening somewhere else. It's kind of like, "thanks for fixing me, now I can go play somewhere else". If there was ever a player who owed some loyalty to WSU, it was Reaves.
The future's so bright - I gotta wear shades.
We like to cut down nets and get sized for championship rings.

Not that I'm too worked up one way or the other on this, but anger is almost certainly not the right word. I'm not sure anyone here is expecting WV to be the biggest Teddy fans. The post you quoted isn't rooting for AR to get injured or something, it's just saying "Bye." I'm sure there are lots of WV fans who feel similarly about Teddy.

The reasons causing the breakup were definitely caused by AR.
This is all very messy and grey. There’s plenty of blame to go around. I’d suggest just leaving it at that and move on.Deuces Valley.
... No really, deuces.

I to have heard the reasons for leaving. I had hoped they were not true. If he had to leave I guess I could live with that, however I have to question his motive in going to a future opponent such as Oklahoma, I am sure he didn't help them at all, From the look of Gregg's handshake he has issues with it as well,.Last edited by Royalno5; December 12, 2018, 12:12 AM.

What do you mean and do you know the "reasons causing the breakup were definitely caused by AR?"
With your previous two statements being so declarative, how then can this event be "...all very messy and grey. There's plenty of blame to go around."

The only part I hate is the school paid to get his bum shoulder fixed and OU gets to reap all the benefits. It’s like taking a hot chick out on a date, spending lots of cash on her then she goes home with another guy at the end of the night.Hows my post? send me feedback at 1-800-f$%k-off

There were conditions in place that that caused him to leave. Many of you would have left as well.
