Chance Moore leaving WSU (Washington State University)

[Aargh]

No details, just the report that he is no longer with the program.

[Kel Varnsen]

First person to leave WSU twice since Gene Stephenson.

I know, I know...too soon.

[ShockerWalkon]

Fingers crossed that he lands at Wright State to keep the streak alive

[WuShock16]

Probably more like Wayne State or Winona State since he might not be able to go to another D-1 school.

[Shockm]

Shocking.

[SHOCKvalue]

That kid is a mess.

Don't forget Weber -- or have they already turned him down?

I know it's alphabetically incorrect, but has Illinois State taken a look?

[shocker22]

Too much Diva in him not enough effort. Talented kid that will waste it all.

GAS House.

Gone After Semester.

I had wondered if something would happen after the Cougs canned Ernie Kent.

[RoyalShock]

Kent was on the hot seat even before Moore transferred. I never understood that choice. It seems the kid makes rash decisions.

[abdullah_sharif]

seems lime he needs some more honest or engaged mentors.

[choida]

JUCO and then go back to D-1... Needs more maturation time.

[MikeKennedyRulZ]

Maybe he'll get one chance moore? If he does, I hope the kid takes it.

Agreed, I think he has a lot of people in his ear that aren't giving good advice.

… or maybe it's the 'man in the mirror'.

Not exactly, Kel -- Gene left under his own power once; the other time he was ejected. People who are fired seldom say they left their jobs unless they're trying to save face with those who don't know the real story; and it would be hard to imagine any Shocker fan not knowing that Stephenson was the dumpee and not the dumper.

Getting back on topic, though: I guess your too-clever comment does raise the question whether Chance's departure from lovely Pullman was voluntary. Given the coaching situation, probably so; and just the end result of a rash previous decision, as others have suggested. It may be material for some additional bored offseason speculation on here, though, so way to help the cause.

Getting back on topic, though: your too-clever comment does raise the question whether Chance's departure from lovely Pullman was voluntary, however. That's probably good for some additional bored offseason speculation on here, so way to help the cause.

CougCenter believes that he was forced out. Their new coach plays a defense-first style and Chance, as we know, is not the best fit in that system.

I could see him scoring around 15 ppg at a juco and ending up as rotational player at a place like DePaul or Rutgers. He was aptly named. 6-7 wings who can shoot will get plenty of opportunities.

Interesting that he called all that out on twitter. Lots of maturing to go for that kid.
