Howland isn't to blame, his parents are.

Only a few days ago all the dawgs were up in arms about Petrino blocking Shaq Wiggins from transferring into state. Now this pops up and all the maroons are singing a different tune.

Well our insiders interview him and he told them that he was fine playing for state but that he also wanted to appease his mom. It's a very weird situation and things like this with bad parent relations and parents trying to control the recruitment usually are. Obviously we aren't going to release him to Auburn.
Kid's aren't stupid. He isn't going to tell the owner of a MSU fan site he wants to leave. Use some common sense.

Yep, and I'm pretty sure that MSU can't block him (Brooks)from going to specific schools. Until he enrolls, the rule is MSU or nowhere for a year. Transfer rules are different

The complete 180 has been delightful.

Is Shaq Wiggnins' Dad a coach at UL and does his mother want him somewhere else? If so, you got us

Not surprised Ole miss fans are making their opinions known on something that has nothing to do with them. The situations are completely different. One is a grad transfer that is requesting a release to a school that isn't on the other schools schedule. This is a request based on a parents hatred of the other parent to a school on the other teams schedule after signing a LOI without playing the year the loi was signed for. But facts are hard right?

Sounds like a bitch. I hope y'all keep him. A soft post player won't make it far
But this comment is funny considering the very next post:

Did both sign LOIs? Then the schools have the right to block releases to where the hell they want to block them from.

Nope. Brooks is not an NCAA student-athlete yet. The rules are different

The "cried at his announcement" comment was made by the Mizzou OP, who has been wrong about every aspect of this story so far. At least he stated that he "heard" about the crying, so who knows?

Again, uneducated ole miss fan coming commenting on a topic they know nothing about just to try and jab at State. Don't y'all have bigger things to worry about? Like the death penalty and a defense that may as well be a death penalty? Didn't they give up like 700+ yards on a running clock?

What did I say that was uneducated?

How do I fulfill the NLI?
You fulfill the NLI in one of two ways:
(1) By attending the institution with which you signed for at least one academic year as a full-time student; or,
(2) By graduating from a two-year college if you signed a NLI while in high school and later attended a two-year college.

Its a bizzare situation. Garrison's dad, George Brooks is on our staff. Garrison lives with him mom in Auburn, AL. The mom and dad needless to say dont have the best relationship in the world. Supposedly the mom is pissed and telling her son he aint playing for his dad b/c she can't stand him.

well shite...at least it's restricted to LGBT and doesn't include the SJW's.

I'll get right to work on fixing those problems. Make sure to give Howland your notes on how to not suck dick at basketball or shift your focus to your own defense that was literally ranked only 1 spot above the one youre currently shitting on in total defense.

Statement from MOM:
We’re not done with the appeal process. We will go to the ends of the earth because Garrison does not want to attend Mississippi State. Contrary to what people think, this is not his mother’s decision. Yes there is friction between his parents, because I don’t think any kid should be railroaded into protecting a person’s job or doing something for his parents. This is his life. I’m prepared to retain an attorney. I’ve spoken with Mississippi State. I tried to resolve this amicably. Just release the kid. He clearly does not want to go.
Garrison has another appeal with the NLI. There’s another process that we can go through that would put everyone out there. It could put his dad as a coach out there. How did he come to this decision? Was there bad advice on his behalf? How did he make this decision without his mother? How did his dad sign the NLI if he isn’t the custodial parent? There’s a lot of things that the media does not know. I’ve never even seen the NLI. Garrison has never been a resident of Mississippi. He doesn’t even live there. His father really had no right to sign the NLI. Mississippi State knew that and they shouldn’t have allowed it. That’s why I’m questioning that part.
My appeal to them as an institution is to release the kid if he doesn’t want to go there. Don’t bring a firestorm of rumors and allegations. You don’t want those problems with a new athletics director. His dad could easily go in there and say “hey, hey, hey, it’s time to stop this. My son doesn’t want to go.” That would be what I would do. But he’s not standing up for Garrison.
My thing is we’re going to take this to the end of the earth. If that means we have to lawyer up, fight fire with fire, we’re going to see this to the end. Garrison does not intend to play basketball for Mississippi State. He doesn’t plan on going to juco. If he has to go to prep school, that’s fine, we’ll do that. But he’s not playing for Mississippi State because he doesn’t want to. He doesn’t feel that it’s a good fit. He feels like he made an emotional decision.
My thing is I want people to get it right. This isn’t an issue of a mother trying to enforce something. This is a kid who has come to me and said “mom, I don’t want to go there. What can I do?” Me being the mother that I’ve been for 17 years, I’m going to go tooth and nail for him. I feel like he’s been railroaded. I feel like he’s been misrepresented.
That is not what I’m going to allow. Garrison is a good kid. He’s a good student. He’s a good athlete. He deserves better than what we’re receiving right now.
