6'1" guard, averaged about 7 points a game for them.



More fallout from their coach being fired.

I'm guessing these Rutgers transfers can play immediately?

You'd think. School might have to sign off on it though, provided they didn't transfer within the league. Not sure though.

He has to get an NCAA waiver to play next season and I'm not sure that your ex coach being a douchebag is going to be enough for one to be granted.

Jerome Seagears will finish is college career at Auburn.

The former Rutgers point guard announced Wednesday that he was transferring to Auburn, choosing the Tigers over Arkansas. He hopes to be eligible to play immediately.

“I Will Be Attending Auburn University To Finish My Student Athletic Career!!! War Eagle,” Seagears posted on his Twitter account.

Seagears, 6-foot-1 and 175 pounds, announced his plans to transfer following the firing of former Rutgers head coach Mike Rice. He officially visited Auburn April 19 and Arkansas April 26. He also considered Marquette, West Virginia and Baylor.

Seagears plans to file a petition with the NCAA to be eligible to play next season and not sit out a year.

Seagears averaged 6.5 points and 2.6 assists in just over 27 minutes per game as a sophomore. He averaged 7.7 points and 2.5 assists as a freshman.

He averaged 32 points, 6.5 rebounds and 9.0 assists as a senior at Flora MacDonald in Red Springs, N.C.

Brian Greene Jr. has been released. Announcement will come eventually. Had to make room for Seagears and BG Jr. will take the fall for it. Already back in his hometown Chicago.

Physical and verbal abuse will though. If the NCAA doesn't grant waivers for all the Rutgers players, the fallout will be unbearable.

I figured it would be either him or Granger unless Denson made the decision for them by not keeping his grades up.

I hope you are right. Florida has a Rutgers transfer as well so maybe having a high profile program pushing the NCAA will be enough.

I liked BGJ he was much more of a scoring threat than Wallace at point guard. He should have started over Wallace imo

I'm not going to out the guy but you can check twitter and confirm that he's already back home in Chicago on Tuesday of finals week and KT Harrell told him he's his brother no matter what. All of this adding together supports my case. Wait for the official announcement but I feel confident right now when telling you it is a 100% done deal.

Well that doesn't make much sense. Either he had no finals (lucky bastard), he threw away an entire semester worth of classes, or he was failing all his classes (in which case he would have been given the boot anyway).

What year is Seagears?
