Adams did a nice job while he was here. This kind of thing happens all the time. A coach makes a judgment on a player and recommends he move on. This is not a negative for Adams. It is simply the coach saying he will probably get much more PT somewhere else. What it says to me is that Ford has a different eye for talent than Sutton.

If you are going to play for T. Ford, you better be faster up and down the court than the team you are playing. Watched his team play in NIT with below Div 1 talent, and he made them look like good Div. 1 athletes. Should be a very interesting year for OSU

Adams showed toughness that was missing in the other players. I think he'll do well where ever he ends up. Remember the takedown of the smaller griffin in the bedlam game? Maybe he should have been on the Cowboy wrestling team.

Why wouldn't it be the right move for him. If he wants to leave so be it...

Not sure, but I have not been in contact with Mr. Adams to know what his true situation is. As I feel he is the only one to answer if it is the right move for him. As far as OSU, if that is what the coach wants then he has to live with that choice.

Not sure I've ever heard of him before. He played for the varsity OSU basketball team?

Yes, coach Ford is making players clearly aware that he is "no playing around" coach. I believe Adams didn't dress out a couple of games last year due to what ever reason. Coach Ford is sending a message hopefully the players will respond with working harder, being focused, and dedicated to School and Basketball
