JMay Transferring Again?

[NCMUFan]

Not that it matters, except to him, I cannot believe what has happened to this prima donna. What is he 19 years old? Not playing at all, etc. Imagine what is going through his mind.

Just a sad situation.

Should of just played at UW-Parkside where he could of been the star.
Is he on scholarship at Tenn or is it still coming out of his pocket?

[4everwarriors]

You're kidding, right? What pocket?

It appears VolNation does not approve of JMay's (lack of) Jack Haley/Mark Madsen/Brian Scalbrine impression.

[Dawson Rental]

Is he not playing because the team is trying to tell him to leave or has JMay essentially told the team he is leaving so they stopped playing him?

Yes

[wyzgy]

only hope is to go to Europe... without his dad

yeah, but which league in europe?  football?? sumo?

[texaswarrior74]

No appearance in tonight's loss to Kentucky....

[Tugg Speedman]

He has not played since January 11, now 8 games and counting ....
Tenn is 5 and 3 over that stretch and blew out Ole Miss and LSU.  In these 8 games, every other roster player has played.

By comparison, Frozena has played in two of MU's last eight games (ND and DePaul).

It appears JMay may not play another second of basketball this season.

I did not see him even on the bench last night.  Was he dressed in street clothes?  I was watching without sound, again at the tiki bar, so I am not sure.

He was on the bench dressed in his playing outfit.  Never took off warmups.

I suspect my assumption at the time of the transfer is accurate. Nobody wanted him. Pearl was willing to give him a shot, as a favor to someone (not sure who), or with an eye on future recruiting, and if it didn't work out, it didn't work out. Kinda like Buzz when he brought him here. He knew the risk, but as a first year coach, getting a talented in-state payer was worth the roll of the dice. It didn't work out, and off he went.

BTW, they show 17 players on their roster, so I assume he is still a walk-on.

JMay's AAU coach was Hennessy Auriantal, who is also the uncle and coach of Junior Lomomba.  Tennessee was on Lomomba early.

BTW, Marquette doesn't seem to be in the mix for Lomomba any longer, and I think that's a good thing.

Maymon is playing at UF right now. 

[Tugg Speedman]

JMay is playing right now on ESPN

Newbill is playing right now on ESPN2.

Which do I watch?

[Tugg Speedman]

Maymon's Half-time line.

BENCH    FGM-A    3PM-A    FTM-A    OFF    REB    AST    STL    BLK    TO    PF    PTS
Jeronne Maymon, F   0-0   0-0   0-0   0   1   0   0   0   1   0   0

This is the first game is played since January 11 (8 consecutive games, 0 minutes)

[Muhoops85]

Maybe be was secretly suspended by the NCAA with Pearl.  Both missed the first 8 games of conference play, coincedence?  I think not.

[Lacrosse218]

I think it has more to do with the Assistant coach not wanting to play him at all and Pearl feeling like he is worth at least a few minutes a game.  Therefore he never played when Pearl didn't coach.

[Tugg Speedman]

Pearl was suspended for 8 SEC games.  He coached the Uconn game on Jan 22, JMay did not play.

Pearl's suspension ended with the Kentucky game earlier this week. JMay did not play.

[77ncaachamps]

Two pathetic lines for JMay in the "play-by-play":

8:34   Jeronne Maymon Defensive Rebound.   
8:10   Jeronne Maymon Turnover.

And that's all "she" wrote in the momentous 6 minutes of game time.
