Lampkin did not travel with TCU to the Big 12 tournament -- team stated that it was for personnel reasons. Lampkin alleging coach Jamie Dixon of mistreatment and racial remarks. Lampkin's mother has posted texts now of TCU leaking Lampkin's going into the transfer portal prior to him reaching that decision and TCU doing so without him informing them of any decision. Quote

I guess that's one way to tell a player he's not welcome back next year. Just put his name in the portal. ALASKA HOOSIER, MikeRoberts, jonz44 and 1 other 1 3 Quote

"Although he had NIL money exceeding six figures, according to sources his priority was more NIL deals. And he was not happy about playing time. It was hard to justify that much more playing time for a player who stopped working, and acted as if he was better than his production. He is talented. He isn’t talented enough to be lazy." Ouch. They did also say some good things about him so I don't think it was just a hit piece. Sounds like a "pass" to me. https://www.star-telegram.com/sports/spt-columns-blogs/mac-engel/article272966515.html Rico, MemphisHoosier and ALASKA HOOSIER 2 1 Quote

This is one of those where he'll need to have a personal relationship with a staff that knows his character. Sorta like Xavier Johnson at IU, who when it's all said and done, has been a talented player whose character has been very much rehabilitated at IU. jonz44, ALASKA HOOSIER, lillurk and 2 others 5 Quote
RaceToTheTop Posted March 13, 2023 Posted March 13, 2023 Here is an account of what Lumpkin posted on instagram of a text conversation with an assistant coach as well as a text conversation his mother had with Dixon. It does only show their side of the story, FWIW. Lumpkin's text is a very rambling one. Would say he's not in a right state of mind at this point and mentions at the end wanting to kill himself. https://twitter.com/StevenMJohnson_/status/1633585611197018114?s=20 Edit: found what was missing from the tweet, which was the text that Lumpkin's mother received from Dixon prior to her response. It stated: “Vanessa thank you (for) taking the time to speak with us yesterday,” the text reads. “I am sorry that I was not able to get Eddie to reach the levels we had both hoped for. I understand that Eddie is entering the transfer portal … Wish him all the success. The first day for NCAA transfer portal is Monday March 13. We will expedite immediately. If there is anything we can do please let me know. Coach Dixon.” Hardwood83, ALASKA HOOSIER and Rico 1 2 Quote

Had an IU offer under Archie, though it never went anywhere. I believe Hunter was his recruiter. Kind of a small ball 4. Averaged 11/6 in the SEC. 2 years of eligibility. Archie guy. Nah. Let move away from the past and into the future. Quote

Against IU, he played 11 minutes and had 4 points, 1 rebound, and 2 assists in an 88-75 loss. Quote
