I'm not going to throw shade at the kid because he really is a good kid.

But, sometimes those around a player want guarantees to fit NBA dreams.

Mark Smith transferring from Illinois - TheRoyalTiger MU - 3/5 12:52:14
     FYI...No restrictions on his transfer(nm) - tjwheeler UI - 3/5 14:26:45
          if we land Ramey I wonder if we'd even be interested at this - CoolBreeze22 MU - 3/5 14:28:58
               Also, TJ said he wants to be a point guard - DevilsAdvocate MU - 3/5 14:30:19
     That would not help IL ST Louis recruiting to to that(nm) - raskolnikov MU - 3/5 13:28:40
     Consider Mizzou blocked - ERB KC - 3/5 13:24:54
          Did Martin try to sign Smith? - MakeShift MU - 3/5 14:01:23
          I'm not sure blocking schools is the issue. - tjwheeler UI - 3/5 13:33:02
               With better coaching I imagine he could realize his - kcnorthside MU - 3/5 14:12:32
                    Maybe the same can be said for Blake Harris as well.(nm) - sprintcar STL - 3/5 14:48:57
                         I think Harris was improving as the season went along. - kcnorthside MU - 3/5 15:07:21
                    What coaching does he need that he didn't get?(nm) - tjwheeler UI - 3/5 14:20:56
                         From what I've read it sounds like he was asked to - kcnorthside MU - 3/5 14:26:25
                              Frazier was the better player. - tjwheeler UI - 3/5 14:30:30
          not sure transfers can be blocked like LOIs(nm) - hefeweizen MU - 3/5 13:28:44
               They can't be outright blocked - kcnorthside MU - 3/5 14:14:02
               I think it is the other way around. As soon as they are - kmawv8 MU - 3/5 13:36:23
               yes they can (nm) - TigerJackSwartz MU - 3/5 13:32:09
          one of the TB lawyers please explain how blocking is legit - Macgrantt MU - 3/5 13:28:38
               Yes. Asked below, but even if a school says a kid is blocked - Cosmo MU - 3/5 13:38:56
                    IIRC the student athlete then has to pay their own way - doughboy MU - 3/5 13:45:53
                         Again, how is that enforceable? If the new school says - Cosmo MU - 3/5 13:51:20
                              I suppose the NCAA could rule you're using an ineligible - doughboy MU - 3/5 14:16:27
     would think he'd prefer a SEC school with baseball and bball - Macgrantt MU - 3/5 13:18:07
     Good. He had his chance to come here and passed... - mizzoumurfkc MU - 3/5 13:14:06
     He must want to play in March(nm) - Eggs MU - 3/5 13:01:57
     He and MU would have been better off if he had selected MU, - MU-TULSA MU - 3/5 13:00:49
          Yep, he's surely regretting that choice now. (nm) - myself MU - 3/5 13:02:43
               Yeah Sue we heard you the first time(nm) - MidMoBaller4Life MU - 3/5 13:03:19
     I think the "coaching like a raving lunatic" thing works - kcnorthside MU - 3/5 12:58:53
          They can see how much Smith regrets choosing the Illini. (nm) - myself MU - 3/5 13:01:04
     Best of luck to Mark. - tjwheeler UI - 3/5 12:58:41
          RE: Best of luck to Mark. - 90Tiger MU - 3/5 13:05:32
               Ha ha. That's funny. (nm) - Lerxst MU - 3/5 14:41:38
               And, Smith was a better "prospect" than Harris. - tjwheeler UI - 3/5 13:23:49
                    It's too bad he's not goings to stick it out there - BOILERTIGER MU - 3/5 13:35:24
                         he doesn't like the coaching staff (nm) - myself MU - 3/5 13:38:02
                         RE: It's too bad he's not goings to stick it out there - tjwheeler UI - 3/5 13:36:34
                              That is because they have dip****s in their ear(nm) - DevilsAdvocate MU - 3/5 13:52:28
                                   RE: That is because they have dip****s in their ear(nm) - tjwheeler UI - 3/5 14:06:59
               Lol 90. Lol(nm) - Uncle John MU - 3/5 13:19:48
               opps... opps... opps... opps...(nm) - Eggs MU - 3/5 13:09:04
               lol (nm) - myself MU - 3/5 13:07:51
               yep, not many people thought Smith would suck this bad. - tjwheeler UI - 3/5 13:07:04
                    I would be more worried by coaching staff is the problem(nm) - ajpe53 MU - 3/5 13:18:47
                         How? They started him 19 games and - tjwheeler UI - 3/5 13:22:17
                              highly talented and recruited player regresses under - ajpe53 MU - 3/5 13:23:49
                                   What did they do wrong? - tjwheeler UI - 3/5 13:24:40
                                        i don't know. i'm not at practice or in the locker room. - ajpe53 MU - 3/5 13:28:36
                                             Just saying he had plenty of opportunities - tjwheeler UI - 3/5 13:30:46
                    This is not only being wrong, but saying there's little to - kmawv8 MU - 3/5 13:16:02
                         The point is he was highly valued. - tjwheeler UI - 3/5 13:19:33
                              I'm aware of what point you were trying to make. - kmawv8 MU - 3/5 13:33:24
                                   You're missing it. We were discussing him as a prospect - tjwheeler UI - 3/5 13:35:18
                                        Not really. Uncle John simply said he'd rather have Harris - kmawv8 MU - 3/5 13:40:38
                                             Sigh - tjwheeler UI - 3/5 13:45:45
                              To early in the game to make that call. This happens to many - Uncle John MU - 3/5 13:22:54
                                   To make what call? - tjwheeler UI - 3/5 13:25:48
                                        To make the call that he's a failed prospect - Mormad MU - 3/5 13:26:33
                                             At no time did I say he was a failed prospect. - tjwheeler UI - 3/5 13:29:26
                         Those coaches are wrong on kids all the time - Mormad MU - 3/5 13:19:29
                    Don't think anyone expected him to shoot so poorly(nm) - MidMoBaller4Life MU - 3/5 13:08:31
                         I actually am fine with poor shooting. - tjwheeler UI - 3/5 13:09:49
                              That is also surprising, figured he'd be a bull on D and - MidMoBaller4Life MU - 3/5 14:13:25
                         poor coaching can have that effect on a player (nm) - myself MU - 3/5 13:09:02
          I'd assume after sitting out a year he'd have a chance to be - CoolBreeze22 MU - 3/5 13:00:36
     more bad pub for Underwood and the Illini (nm) - myself MU - 3/5 12:56:24
          Serious question, Sue: you spent a lot of time trying to - Gary P. MU - 3/5 13:03:13
               You and 3 or 4 others seem to be extremely obsessed with - myself MU - 3/5 13:21:43
                    So convincing! - Gary P. MU - 3/5 14:28:11
                    oh zounami. You have issues(nm) - tjwheeler UI - 3/5 13:26:11
                         Is that who "sue" is? If so, you're proving my point... - myself MU - 3/5 13:43:16
                              Why would you, a ku fan, create so many handles? - tjwheeler UI - 3/5 14:05:06
               lol* - tjwheeler UI - 3/5 13:05:45
     Probably will go to DePaul - jlbomega MU - 3/5 12:55:09
          He should strongly consider a year in junior college. - zodiac6 JC - 3/5 12:59:31
          Why in the world would he go to DePaul.(nm) - Uncle John MU - 3/5 12:56:56
               Wasn't that one of his final three? - Cosmo MU - 3/5 12:58:13
                    Maybe Michigan St.?(nm) - MidMoBaller4Life MU - 3/5 12:59:34
                         That's right. I can't remember who I was thinking of - Cosmo MU - 3/5 13:00:28
                              I do recall Depaul with someone, can't remember who though - MidMoBaller4Life MU - 3/5 13:01:28
                                   Tyger Campbell? - doughboy MU - 3/5 13:39:01
                                   JT had interest in Depaul for a short time - tjwheeler UI - 3/5 13:12:49
                                        This is right(nm) - MidMoBaller4Life MU - 3/5 14:46:13
                                        Never underestimate the Dave Leitao attraction(nm) - Mormad MU - 3/5 13:34:55
                                   I think that's right (nm) - Cosmo MU - 3/5 13:07:03
                    SLU, I believe - MrBlueSky MU - 3/5 12:59:04
               lol Depaul(nm) - MidMoBaller4Life MU - 3/5 12:58:11
          If he hated losing at IU it would be worse there..nm - tigertix MU - 3/5 12:56:35
     He probably ends up at SLU (nm) - MrBlueSky MU - 3/5 12:54:50
     Again, damn he really wants out(nm) - MidMoBaller4Life MU - 3/5 12:53:57
     i think it is BS schools can block a transfer anywhere(nm) - ajpe53 MU - 3/5 12:53:43
          Correct. How is that enforceable anyway? - Cosmo MU - 3/5 12:59:49
               Its common to ban any team on your schedule but - asutiger ASU - 3/5 13:19:43
          Agree 100%(nm) - TheRoyalTiger MU - 3/5 12:54:50
          He should play at SWIC next year. (nm) - Uncle John MU - 3/5 12:54:46
     Then he screws himself in StL metro.............nm - tigertix MU - 3/5 12:52:59
