TexasTerror Posted August 9, 2009 Report Posted August 9, 2009 Do we know if Henderson ever officially transferred to LU? Guessing he has to sit out a year with the new transfer requirements since the program he left is still intact and he was the only current player on the roster to leave. May be good for him.
LU Baseball Fan Posted August 11, 2009 Report Posted August 11, 2009 Henderson is definitely coming to Lamar. Do not know if he is going to be able to play yet. I understand they are asking for a waiver because of the circumstances. Last I read there have been 2 baseball, 1 volleyball and 1 basketball player who has left UNO. This is kind of a crazy situation because there appears to be no precedent. How many programs do you know that announced they were doing away with their program then coming back a week later and saying wait we have funding for 1 year? This was after they gave the players a blanket permission to seek somewhere else to go and also promised they would get their release and be eligible to play. It will be interesting to see what happens. I heard the head coach left UNO for Wake Forest and one of the assistants got the new job. I talked to a friend of the family and they said both were supportive of Henderson's transfer and hoped he would be eligible. Also they said thought he was coming to Lamar no matter what.
TexasTerror Posted August 12, 2009 Report Posted August 12, 2009 Worrell never sat out. You are missing the point, MFFL.
LU Baseball Fan Posted August 13, 2009 Report Posted August 13, 2009 Texas Terror... what do you mean my "You are missing the point"?
TexasTerror Posted August 14, 2009 Report Posted August 14, 2009 Texas Terror... what do you mean my "You are missing the point"? Worrell situation. It was based off of a lie and a friendship between two coaches. As it relates to your post, Some of the information you are posting, particularly as it relates to athletes leaving, is not factual either outside of the Wake coaching situation. Only two current student-athletes left to Div I institutions in wake of what occurred and neither was from a major sport (VB, Hoops, baseball). Henderson was off the baseball roster prior to the student vote by two weeks, before there were any legitimate concerns of UNO athletes being derailed.
LU Baseball Fan Posted August 16, 2009 Report Posted August 16, 2009 Texas Terror I do not know where you are getting your facts but Henderson pitched the weekend after the student vote. He was definitely there and heard first hand and along with the other baseball players was told they had permission to contact and be contacted by other schools. That they would be released and eligible to play somewhere else for 09-10 year. He never pitched again because he was diagnosed with an intercostal tear. He had been battling with a sprain since the fourth week of the season. He was never off the roster for the entire season. Everything I have posted has come from either newpaper accounts and the internet. Also from Henderson's family. A volleyball player left. A tennis player, A basketball recruit asked to be released from his commitment but decided last week he was going to come to UNO. Besides Henderson those are the people who have left. Of course info could be wrong on the internet. Where did you get the impression he was off the roster 2 weeks before the vote.
TexasTerror Posted August 17, 2009 Report Posted August 17, 2009 You are correct about Henderson pitching after the student vote. The information regarding players who left is not factual and I am not sure where any of that was reported.
