MyBB Sean Obi leaving Rice
Adam Finkelstein ‏@AdamFinkelstein
Sean Obi has been granted his release from Rice & will transfer. Averaged over 11 points & 9 rebounds this season as a freshman.

Big Loss...

RE: Sean Obi leaving Rice
With close to 500 basketball players transferring every year now, it is hard to tell about one player's motivation. Were there any conditions mentioned to his release?

Sorry, I was playing with the movie lines.

Obi Wan Kenobi (to Stormtrooper): These are not the droids you are looking for.

Stormtrooper: These are not the droids we are looking for.

RE: Sean Obi leaving Rice
Only 20 times? I saw at least 20 times while I was single and now at least 20 times with my kids, because they are more into Star Wars than i am.

when I heard Haase was watching Star Wars with his kids when he got the call that Lee was coming to UAB, I knew we had a keeper.
