I've also heard that and wouldn't be surprised if Lansing also tests the water and use his record to leave and advance his career elsewhere.
He's starting to build a resume and we all know what will happen if that continues.

Trust me....when I tell you that coaches are every bit as concerned about "THEIR" win/loss ratio---regardless of the strength of the schedule ---as they are about making it into the big dance!! Bottom line is if you win a lot of games---even if they are ugly wins---u position yourself for the opportunity to move up as a coach in the ranks and into the discussion when better jobs open up!
Just nature of the beast and you can damn sure bet that when coaching salaries are skyrocketing ---they are going to play the weak schedule game and keep their mouths shut when it comes to comments about other coaches and/or programs!
ISU basketball will go on just fine ---with or without Lansing! So I don't really care if he stays or leaves and understand the game for what it is!

I'm pretty sure I'm not the only one that thinks this. But I really wish you wouldn't bring this topic up. Let me rephrase this, I think that you've been let down too many times by times getting good and then coaches leaving. I know I'm a student, I know I'm ignorant in SO many cases. But try looking at the bright side. I refuse to make friends with people that are pessimistic? Why? Because they can make anything bad. I will always be a glass half full kind of guy. Being optimistic is way more fun.

Listed as a transfer on ESPN's updated transfer list. Has this been a fact for awhile or is this fresh news? First I've heard of it.

You're the first to have mentioned it on this board, so it's fresh news to me.
Is Demetrius Moore mentioned?
No need to answer that, I found it, and yes he is.

That means we have an open scholarship yes?
Does ISU have a Public Relations person? Someone needs to get info out to the fans. We are the reason we have a freakin' team.

We've posted it numerous times in other threads. Prusator took his scholarship.
The news about Samuels is new though. Glad to see he will at least graduate.
That is correct. I'm tired and apparently didn't follow the conversation string well enough.
That said, I think I'm going to put together an eligibility chart.

Got a scholarship, got to graduate and never played a game. Kind of crazy.
Reminds me of some government programs.

That's amusing if only because it throws it in the face of some of these people ripping Lansing for giving him a shot. Not that Eastern Michigan is a great destination, but he's going to a MAC school, substantially better than many here thought he could do. Sort of like the Pacers giving Hibbert a big contract. You never shy away from a big man with some potential.
