UAZippers Posted March 18, 2021 Report Share Posted March 18, 2021 This one surprises me. I was disappointed in how little Cam improved this season, but I saw him as an important veteran presence next year. Hopefully this means that he saw the writing on the wall and the young guys were going to overtake him in the depth chart. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zippy5 Posted March 18, 2021 Report Share Posted March 18, 2021 I think we were all anticipating him leaving via graduation - staff probably didn't have room for him and he doesn't want to hang em up yet. Good for Cam 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RowdyZip Posted March 18, 2021 Report Share Posted March 18, 2021 I would guess this means that UA isn't offering seniors an extra year on scholarship. I believe that I read that while the extra year is "available," the school would have to pay for the extra scholarships out of the general fund. Cam would've been a good one to have back.

clarkwgriswold Posted March 18, 2021 Report Share Posted March 18, 2021 Always seemed like a nice happy go lucky kid and a good teammate. I assumed he was not returning. I wish him luck. That being said, he's exactly the same player that arrived on campus two seasons ago and not one that will be missed significantly on the floor, especially if Bandaogo and Salle develop.

One way or another I thought I had read that teams can go over the limit for next year, but the scholarships had to be paid by the university general fund. I may be 100% incorrect. Either way, wish Cam best of luck. He certainly provided energy and some huge momentum swings with his patented two-hand slams. I'm happy for him if he gets another year, as long as it's not in the MAC. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm happy for him if he gets another year, as long as it's not in the MAC. You were 100% correct. I was curious about this issue and found the answer. The Zips could keep the seniors on scholarship but the school would have to fund the extra scholarships. Based on what we are seeing and Akron's financial situation, I do not believe Akron is willing to fund the added scholarships. Also, I could see this being a problem if you are an incoming frosh and find out that a senior is staying and playing an extra year it may change how you feel about playing for that school.

gozips19 Posted March 19, 2021 Report Share Posted March 19, 2021 Just saw Cincy has six players in the transfer portal. This is gonna be a wild off-season. I have faith Groce can improve this squad. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
