E. Victor Nickerson requests release from Charlotte

What part of his game improved?

His confidence was noticeably different. I trusted him more this year.

His confidence was noticeably different. I trusted him more this year.[/quote]He finished much better, likely related to the confidence increasing. He also improved his defense and rebounding. All three of these probably relate to better strength. If you look at his season-long stat-lines, the only thing that appreciably got worse was turnovers, most other stats improved considerably. Some of those, like 3 pt %, had nowhere to go but up, but he seems like he has potential to experience another leap this next year if he stays.

I saw a marginal improvement, thanks for the opinions though, he doesn’t really have a frame to build muscle mass and doesn’t have an outside shooting stroke. Like you guys said he’s going to have to continue taking it to the rack and there were a few games where he was very good on the boards. I still would rather have DC if they both had the same attitudes and work ethics.

Holy shit is that rich. You’re the LAST person who should be giving out advice on proper alumni behavior.

Brah!

True story.

So other than all of this bitter back and forth nonsense… Does ANYONE have any more information on this supposed transfer/release?!

I second this request … don’t feel like reading through 18 pages of mostly garbage to see if E. Vic is staying or not.

Too much drama. I’ll check back in August.

Yes. Both he and Clark have requested a release. The AD will not grant it until grades are final. If their grades are high enough not to hurt the teams overall APR they will both be realeased. If their grades are not high enough it was my understanding they will not be released.

If their grades are not high enough it was my understanding they will not be released.[/quote]Interesting. I don’t really have a problem with this. The NCAA put the APR plan in place to make sure schools were actually giving student-athletes the education they were promised, and they punish schools who do not, so the student-athletes have an obligation to succeed in the classroom. I still would like to see these guys stay, but at least this approach will not allow them to hose us on their way out causing us to lose scholarships.

Releases have been granted.

Still don’t get it, but good luck.

Since that statement was made, it became official. Sad to see them go, but good luck to them.

[quote=ā€œIron9er, post:454, topic:27753ā€]Still don’t get it, but good luck.[/quote] Same here. Good luck to them both. Still really surprised that Nickerson is leaving, will be interested to see where he ends up.

At least this thread is official now…

Buh-Bye
