Saw something else about Kadeem Coleby leaving, yet he isn't shown even on the roster (per espn)?

[HarpBros]

There was a hack article saying KC was gone since on Go shockers he's listed as a SR.all of our older articles says he plays for us in 2013-14. I always thought he is of center next year. any one have better info from what I glened looking at stuff.

[mjbaker84]

kind of what i thought too.

[ShockerPrez]

I wouldnt think his departure would be likely at all after sitting out this year. He is gonna step in right away and start, I would think. I see him leaving as making zero sense.

[Dan]

he's still on the roster. This was his transfer year, he plays next year:

[mjbaker84]

guess it was just poor reporting as usual in the article!

so who is coming in this year/ eligable to play that wasn't available this season?

Coleby

Please post the link to what you saw about Kadeem leaving. I'm not buying into this very sketchy (at best)...not even sure what to call it!

Coleby - SR
Shaq Morris - FR
Ria'n Holland - FR
DJ Bowles - FR
Earl Watson - JR
Darius Carter - JR

Something will change with the current roster. I don't see two people in this group, or on the current roster, paying their own way. We currently sit at 15 committed to scholarships and only 13 are allowed.

Players on the roster who sat out this year include Kadeem Coleby and Derail Green. Zach Bush, a walk-on also, redshirted this year.

We have two Juco transfers - Earl Watson and Darius Carter, both in the 6-7 range I believe.

Incoming freshman include Shaq Morris 6-8, DJ Bowles 6-2 and Rian Holland 6-0.

We also have another guard out of the OKC area whose name escapes me who will be a preferred walk-on.

As thing stand right now we are two over the scholarship limit so some adjustments will be made. Some have questioned whether Ben Watson will make it, but he talks like he is coming.

As 3G has said before he knows how to count so I'm pretty sure he already knows how this is going to shake out, but it could be a while before we know what the bottom line is.

Looks right to me. I have my guesses on who won't be on the roster next year but since it is 100% total speculation I probably should keep that to myself. Plus that saves me the embarrassment of being proved wrong when the dust does finally settle.

Why it would make sense for Andrew Wiggins to Wichita State.

[mjbaker84]

ahhh I see!
hate to see anyone have to leave

here is the article, directly from the frontpage of yahoo.com

http://sports.yahoo.com/news/wichita-state-already-turns-promising-202636547--ncaab.html

The Shockers' heart and soul, all-energy forward Carl Hall, will have graduated, and senior guard Malcolm Armstead - whose poise was so crucial in March - will be gone. Role players Ehimen Orukpe, Demetric Williams and Kadeem Coleby will also move on with their lives.

Kadeem Coleby is on the Shocker roster.

Let me help you with what to call it, 1972: an ignorant, uninformed mistake by whoever wrote it. Apparently he didn't bother to look at the stats to see that "role player" Coleby's role was to sit out as a transfer.

Coleby has played three years (and is thus a senior in terms of athletic eligibility); he may well be a senior academically too. But his fellow transfer Malcolm Armstead would have been listed as a senior at this time last year too, for the same reasons -- and I think it's safe to say that MA did more than just show up this season.

Kadeem is a very good player who's already had some success in college, and is eagerly anticipated by the coaches as WSU's starting center next year.
