**Breaking update** - Sources have confirmed that Quadri Moore has been removed from the team and has left the university @700wlw

OhVarsity! @OhVarsity
I’m not confirming the Quadri report, but consider it confirmed. This happened last week, from what I was told. Don’t know any other details, but wish Quad the best.

/shrugs shoulders/

Sounds like he never showed to campus and is no longer with the team.

Quadri got a lot of flak, but he was a good guy. Hope everything is alright.

Now the cynical in me wished it would of happened sooner. Could of gunned for a Grad Transfer this season if it happened in early to mid summer.

Nah, I don't think it's cynical or selfish... I definitely wish him the best, but I agree it would have been nice to know about this before it was too late to bring in a transfer. Maybe something unexpected just happened. I'm positive I saw him walking around Clifton a couple weeks ago.

I would be shocked though. Mick isn't one of those cutthroat coaches that do whatever it takes to stockpile as much talent as possible, especially if it comes at the expense of one of our seniors. I am openly skeptical of his recruiting skills/strategies, but I would never criticize his character.

But I guess until it's actually confirmed, we're all just shooting the breeze.

Saw Q at the football scrimmage less than two weeks ago, so whatever happened it was recent.

Was hanging around the basketball team at sigma Sigma yesterday and can confirm he was nowhere to be found while rest of team was having a blast

Dismissed for a violation of team rules prior to the start of the semester...

Makes sense considering it's too late to bring someone new in.

i know timmy crowell doesn't count, but in other scenarios, didn't mick get lance by doing some finagling? i could be wrong. but yeah, i was willing for quadri to be a bearcat for as long as he wanted even though the writing was on the wall that he'd probably have a lot more fun in a mac school or some such. i'd follow him. once a bearcat, always a bearcat. thick and thin

I'm not sure I understand this post, but I think I agree with it.

I wish him the best.

Also, not to be mean, but I'm glad. He just never did get it.

Man the Big Q is gone! How badly will this effect our rankings?

In all honesty, we've had worse bigs than Moore.
I wouldn't be glad, we're losing experienced depth and depth that isn't offensively inept at that. Incase you've forgotten, shooting hasn't always been our strong suit.
Best of luck to the young man.

Not a big lose wish him the best
