What motivated him to leave then? It wasn’t for lack of playing time. I doubt it was for a bigger stage or payday (either would be fine though). Aren’t the rumors that he was ostracized? My point is that we don’t know who is at fault and I’m not going to assume it was EO. Maybe he is and maybe he’s classless. Just saying I don’t know ****, nor do you. With that being the case, withholding judgment is the right thing to do. It’s just not as fun.
I believe he wanted to go to a more offensive team. Also Pike isn’t part of the team? Going to convince him to stay is abandoning him?

We barely have people leave. Not fitting in has culpability on him too.

EO left RU MBB and not in a nice way., in my opinion.
But won't wish ill on him, just won;t root for his success as a pro.

Amen. Pike took a chance on Eugene. Developed him into a legit player and then he ditched in the middle of the night .

The way Eugene left had a much different feel than any other transfer (eg, Myles, tez, young) and I think a LARGE part of the fanbase feels this way

For example - Myles got a big heartfelt ovation when he returned.

There is no way in hell Eugene gets that reception. No way

…and he wouldn’t deserve any applause

He **** on his own legacy

Call us children but I think the majority of the fanbase feels this way
Why would he come back? Hence, it is different

Couldn’t care less about this guy.

He abandoned Rutgers basketball in the middle of the night.

Weird dude.

If you believed the posters here at the time he left because he did badly in pickup games against his teammates.lol
