Yeah. I've been wondering a lot about which way Trevor's leaning, and particularly in light of Iverson's decision to transfer and if Trevor's status might have played a role in that, as in maybe Colton got an inkling or has reason to believe that Trevor will be back next year, and thus his decision to transfer?
That is nothing but pure speculation on my part, but it would fit. If Mbakwe and Sampson are back, then most likely Colton would have no bigger a role on this team next season than he did this season, and he may even have a lesser role assuming that Mo Walker comes back healthy and is ready to play, and Elliott Eliason also may play a role in what would be a very crowded (in a good way) front-court situation for the team next season if everyone comes back.
And Colt may have taken a look at that and said, "Ya know what? The heck with this. I'd like to go somewhere where I can have an opportunity to play.", and I wouldn't blame him one bit if that was his motivation for transferring.
Again, total speculation, but it's really got me wondering. I really hope for selfish reasons that Trevor comes back, because I believe he makes us a much more formidable team if the other pieces are in place- and for his own sake, I really think he could benefit from another year playing college ball. After being away from the game for two whole years, he took a huge leap forward this season, and if he continues working on his game and improving it in every aspect as he did this past season, then next year could be a HUGE year for him (and for us) and he could really start to put himself on some people's radar screens so far as his potential NBA status goes.
