At SMU by the time he was a senior he could have probably gotten ten minutes a game on the best team he will ever be on, parlayed his average skill into a 200k education, and probably even had a great time with some great looking co-eds along the way.

Now he will shovel snow for a less than average boise team and get a junior college education.

I don't get it.


Think he's just looking for playing time. Not sure SMU looks better than Boise to an Australian employer that likely doesn't know either school. And let's be honest, he's got an Australian accent so he probably won't have many issues with co-eds wherever he ends up

I don't mind Tom transferring. He likely wouldn't have gotten many minutes until his Junior year and likely never been a starter. He came a long way to play and its not like he was averaging close to 15MPG as a Frosh and transferred. Wish he would have stuck out the season, but not surprised and don't blame him. Bet he ends up at Boise.

There's another Aussie at Boise, so it makes sense.

And I was about to say he'd be living in his own Private Idaho. Guess not.

I guess he figured that since Boise beat SMU that they are the better team to be with.
