Coach Jim Calhoun announced that another player from his roster will be transferring. This time it is sophomore guard Rob Garrison. Garrison had been brought in at the last moment his freshman season when AJ Price and Marcus Williams got arrested during “laptop gate.” Garrison played a limited role in the 2005-2006 season and had his ass permanently implanted in the bench this season.
“He has indicated to me, and I have indicated to him, about transferring,” Calhoun said. “My assumption, based upon our conversation, is that he is going to transfer. He just hasn’t made his mind up on what schools he wants.”
Garrison hasn’t decided as to where he will transfer yet but I am sure he will be glad to get out of dodge.
“I have decided to explore my options and look into the possibility of transferring to another school,” Garrison said. “I have enjoyed my time here at Connecticut on and off the court, but I think I owe it to myself to make sure I am getting the most out of my college experience.”
This now gives the Huskies two scholarships for next season. Calhoun also said that a third player is on the fence right now as to whether or not he will transfer. I am not going to speculate here on this at all but my guess is Doug Wiggins.
