Duron Carter to Transfer

• tribepronk41

  Just heard from a reliable source that Duron will be transferring out of OSU.
• sleeper

  

  If this is true, good luck to him.
• ironman02

  What's the reasoning behind this? I haven't been paying too much attention, but is there anything else going on other than the academic issues last year?
• tribepronk41

  definitely the academic issues...he just never understood that schoolwork went hand and hand with football.
• 2kool4skool

  

  That's surprising. Generally transfers are because the guy isn't going to get playing time, but Carter was in the rotation as a freshman. If true, must be academic related.

  We will be back he is going to junior college

  link? I'm calling BS on this "reliable" source until I hear something concrete. How many times have we heard crap like this?
• sleeper

  

  If its academics, there are about 12 teams in the SEC where he'd fit right in.

  +1...please,back it up,tribepronk41
  
  and for the record,I've heard it too--but nothing officially...hope he gets his act together,and soon.

  Do they have tutors?

  The guy obviously has had problems with academics. I wouldn't be surprised if he got kicked out of school rather than his optional transfer. Just doesn't seem like he wanted to attend class.

  A relatively new poster with a total of 41 posts talking about a reliable source...
  
  I'll wait till I actually see a real link until I consider this real.
• OneBuckeye

  

  I can tell you 100% he will not be in OSU uniform this fall because of academics. He is most likely to transfer to a JUCO college to get that straightened out, but I don't think the details of how he is going to get his academics figured out has been finalized. Thus, no link.

  Isn't everyone relatively new? Would 2000 F word posts make him more reliable?

  Indeed Ohio State has tutors and they are not other students. I know one of the tutors and she has been in education for 30+ years. I also know Stan Jefferson, Director of Player Development for Ohio State. One of his primary responsibilities is monitoring the academic progress of student-athletes. One must "show up" to take advantage of any tutoring program. Need I say more?
• georgemc80

  Just goes to show you that poor academics isn't always related to economics...his father must be very disappointed. I tell my kids all the time that no matter where they are from here on out, they represent my name....that should be the final factor in all decisions. (multiply that by 20 for Chris Carter)
• sjmvsfscs08

  Only 20? haha
• tribepronk41

  my reliable source is a good friend of his. I can't totally back it up b/c i only heard he was transferring. Thats it. Hopefully he straightens everything out.
• jordo212000

  

  Wouldn't surprise me at all. I just can't believe that somebody who is forced to attend study tables and has access to tutors can actually find a way to flunk out of college.
• OneBuckeye

  

  Several people have said Papa Carter was in columbus over the weekend to move him out...

  Where are you guys reading these rumors?
• thedynasty1998

  

  I remember not long ago on here someone was claiming Duron was doing great because he told him so on the courts.
• newarkcatholicfan

  

  I have heard it all now.
  Ones total post makes or break them when it comes to them being reliable or not reliable. Some of you not only take this posting crap way too seriously you take yourself way too seriously.
  
  Go ahead and take your shots now I know this is another form of making things better for you.
• tribepronk41

  duron just confirmed it on his twitter "the rumors are true..."
• detectivegibbles

  What a fucking idiot.
  
  Here is a free education to just play football. You only have to show up to class every once in awhile. That's it....
