Not surprising, all of his friends are gone, will get pt at another school.  Good Luck AE, all the best.

More transfers coming?

 

Chatter is Hollowell and possibly a few walk-ons...

He was decent while he lasted. Can't say it will hurt the team very much. He came in as a shooting ace and never really started taking shots. Best of luck to him.

My only beef with AE leaving is that he was one of IU's biggest recruiting cheerleader.  He got guys to come to Indiana and be a part of something special, now that those guys are gone he gets tossed to the side.

 

That is 3 guys this year that have left the program, one for obvious reasons, the other two we may never know why the change of heart...

Why leave a program you believe in?

didn't answer my question... he was playing more and more minutes.

Maybe "tossed to the side" was the wrong use of words.  Should of read - "now he wants to leave"

Just not sure how you go from - "IU's #1 Cheerleader" to "Get Me the Hell Outta Here"

Shelt said Hollowell does want to have a conversation with Tom Crean about his role and his future, but that his status hasn't changed yet.3/24/14, 12:15 PM

It's especially tough to see in state kids want out, that being said If he doesn't want to stay, let him go. #ontothenext

Not sure what Hollowell wants... if he was producing in games he would get more time. Get your self-confidence up JH, play harder. play better.

Agreed.  Just disheartening to see this, I've always liked Austin.  Saw him a ton of times in high school, kids has a great passion and spirit.  Wish he wouldn't feel compelled to leave, but if he wants to go, he goes.

 

Just not so sure that there isn't something bigger at play here.  Crean has been known to blame his players for a number of mistakes this season, maybe that is finally catching up to him, and guys we thought would be 4 year guys are thinking about their time at IU.

Maybe a little reassurance from
crean could motivate him into a big summer. It shouldn't be that way but who knows.

Hate to say I told you so but... There is lack of respect from all that went down this year...

Maybe Hollowell WANTS to leave.

The second phrase is far less harsh. Saying "he was tossed aside" means Crean just used to him as a means to get other players, and once his use ran up Crean told him to get lost. "Now he wants to leave" has a completely different meaning.
