What would CuJo transferring have to do with Romeo going to Vandy early?

Hearing Courtney Ramey's name mentioned as an option.

Where are you hearing this? I couldn't find any mention. He would be a great get. Right now, it seems like he is still pretty open since decommitting from Lville even though the CB favors Mizzou.

CJ thing is pretty easy to figure out.  He couldn't get on the floor consistently this year with weaker guards than IU will have next year.  Was he going to play more next year?  Don't think so.  By transferring at the end of the first semester he doesn't have to set out a complete basketball season.  Wherever he goes he will be eligible to play the second semester next year.  That means that his new school won't need to waste a scholarship on him for a non-productive year.  As for missing the first semester at that school and not playing, he is just trading sitting on the bench at IU and not playing much.  If he ends up in a better spot for him, so be it.  Welcome to college basketball in the 21st century.  Come this time next year most people won't remember that he was even on the team.

Is this the BottomLine?

Used to work for a newspaper covering thoroughbred horse racing.  I ran a daily betting column where I bet on the horses with a bankroll.  That segment was called the Bottom Line.  The name has just stuck.

From Jon Rothstein - Source: Oklahoma State's Curtis Jones has had his waiver denied by the NCAA.  Indiana transfer.
 
That's quite a surprise given the NCAA's recent trend of approving nearly every waiver request it received.

What was this waiver for? Didn’t he already sit out last year?

Is he in competition with Grant Gelon for most schools attended?

Former Indiana and Oklahoma State combo guard Curtis Jones Jr. has joined @PennStateMBB as a grad transfer:

That’ll add some intrigue to those games.

Since everyone that was at IU when he was on campus is long gone, not sure about an intrigue factor.

Interesting to see just how much playing time he actually gets.  Although he did average 22 min./game last year at OK State, his 3-year stat history doesn't show any improvement in his game at all.
