I was wondering why Nate Rucker left NIU. Thanks for any answers in advance.

Nate Rucker had to leave because he did not live up to the standards set by Niu and coach Montgomery. Andre Henly left for the same reasons. Both players wouldve helped the team greatly!

DAMN PEOPLE FOR HAVING STANDARDS!

Rumor had it Mary Jane was involved.....

I think he left because Barksdale was transferring.

Has Rucker made a college decision? Is he going to ETSU?

Not sure anyone knows- except he and his family decided it wasn't as close to home as he would like to be. Anything else is rumor.

Fairly well supported "rumor"....... Distance wasn't why he left (or was asked to leave). But that is way in the past now and bringing up the mistakes he made doesn't do anything positive for anyone.
I hope the kid gets things straightened out and ends up ok. Would rather focus on current Huskies! I think that is a good way to leave it.
