It looks like Trae has graduated and will be playing elsewhere this upcoming year.

Kid had a fantastic year. Will really benefit whatever team gets him. I'd assume he'll be playing for a very strong team next year otherwise he'd just finish out his career at Tennessee.

I don't see where he graduated. It has been reported he's getting the boot for repeated plagiarism. Maybe Matta had heard some things about the academic part that he didn't like during high school, and that may be part of why OSU backed off him. Matta's brother was a high school coach down in the same area of Georgia at the time.

My bad... I assumed he graduated based upon an immediate ability to play which I took from the article.

This is almost like a trade. Craft for Golden. It will be interesting to see who has a better career at the college level. My money is on Craft:):osu:

When I was in college I would have hit that too, especially if she was helping me out on something else too.

Jenny Wright, the director of the office of student judicial affairs at the University of Tennessee, has been terminated for failure to cooperate with an investigation into whether she had inappropriate relations with student-athletes, including former Volunteer point guard Trae Golden. This according to a report by Jimmy Hyams of "The Sports Animal" radio program in Knoxville:
