BU recruit- 2012 juco Tymell Murphy

after a good year at FIU - the head coach Richard Pitino left to take over at Minnesota...and ex-BU recruit Tymell Murphy shopped around a bit - visiting a few places - not sure he'd return to FIU -
then he even hinted in a tweet he was going to transfer to Hofstra - but now has said he's returning to FIU..
 
Good news & bad news for ex-BU recruit Tymell Murphy..

-Good - FIU moves to Conference USA - a better conference and way more exposure...

-The bad news - the grades at FIU basketball have been bad enough that they got hammered with the severe NCAA penalty of banning them from post-season play in 2013-14.

-Tymell turned out to be a pretty good scorer & player - He was FIU's LEADING scorer & rebounder more often than not...he is a freakish, Chris Roberts-type athlete
he averaged 15ppg/7rpg/2bpg/1.2spg ............. and had considered earlier this summer the possibility of transferring from FIU.
BUT - with the post-season ban, there is an NCAA rule which would allow seniors - who would then have NO further chance of playing in the post-season - to transfer and BE IMMEDIATELY ELIGIBLE.
