OGLESBY LEAVING CLEMSON?

According to Chansi Stuckey’s Twitter feed, TO is going to leave Clemson to play basketball overseas, where his Norwegian citizenship makes him more attractive to Euro ball clubs who have a cap on how many US players they can have on the roster. Below is a screencap of the tweet.

ESPN confirms it.

    Well that sucks… If he was having a good night he could swing a game by himself.

  2. 2bobby steelsNo Gravatar on May 26, 2009 at 6:19 pm:

    I honestly think that this will be better for him, and better for the program. As talented as he is, he had major attitude problems

    Well guys, someone on Twitter also said Patrick Swayze died, so we can’t believe every little thing on Twitter until it is totally confirmed. So let’s just simmer down now!

    “Terrence” is misspelled…sorry I got nothing else to really add except for if this is true then I wish him all the best and success

    CUtigers.com is confirming it, this really sucks…

    ouch…

    Well I guess OP is set on making even more of a defensive push. When watching the games Oglesby looked out of place at best while playing D. So instead of learning how to play the defensive game OP wanted he took the easy way out. This may turn out better for him and I hope it does. It just seems a little selfish to me.

  10. 10LawtonfunkNo Gravatar on May 27, 2009 at 8:41 am:

    You know what Oglesby means in Klingon . . . neither do I.

  11. 11LawtonfunkNo Gravatar on May 27, 2009 at 8:43 am:

    Well . . . bye.

  12. 12CUTigersinDVNo Gravatar on May 27, 2009 at 8:54 am:

    He was a liablity on defense…and sometimes on offense with his trigger happiness. He could derail the entire offense with his refusal to play inside out. He was also a whiner who put himself before the team. The only good thing about him was the way he could get us back in a game or put an opponent away IF he was on. Someone else can do that now. He kind of reminded me of Ray Allen, he either shot lights out or couldn’t hit the broad side of a barn.

  13. 13Willy MacNo Gravatar on May 27, 2009 at 8:57 am:

    Wait a minute ther CU, he wasn’t really a whiner. That’s just your perception/opinion. Sure he kicked that one guy, an elbowed the other guy but he did care. Otherwise he wouldn’t have gotten so fired up. Also, I need evidence of him putting himself in front of the team. Even if he did, he was very apologetic about it.

  14. 14LawtonfunkNo Gravatar on May 27, 2009 at 11:30 am:

    Honestly, though, I wish him the best. I was kind of hoping OP would help him out with his attitude. He was getting better at looking for the inside man, and he did a lot for us in a short amount of time.

    I guess Tanner Smith will be playing more.

  15. 15DanielNo Gravatar on May 27, 2009 at 11:38 am:

    This is certainly a loss to our ability to score rapidly, but Oglesby shot some idiot shots too and wasn’t a good defender. Hopefully this will allow us to go inside more and not get 3- point crazy which happened alot when he was on the court.

  16. 16Chris SimpNo Gravatar on May 27, 2009 at 12:35 pm:

    I thinkTanner Smith is the real deal, and he, Stitt and Young can handle things I believe. I think we’ll be successful this year.

  17. 17AndrewTheTerribleNo Gravatar on May 27, 2009 at 2:29 pm:

    Tanner has great ball control, is a good passer, and is a pretty good defender. I was hoping he’d get the opportunity to spend more time on the floor, and this is certainly his chance to prove how much of an asset he can be.

  18. 18CUTigersinDVNo Gravatar on May 27, 2009 at 6:49 pm:

    Ok you got me he wasn’t a whiner. But he put himself ahead of the team numerous times. Like when he got frustrated and threw the elbow, that’s the obvious example. Then there were the numerous times he abandoned the game plan in favor of throwing up crazy shots because he thought he could just shoot us into the game. Then there were the dunks. He knew he couldn’t dunk he just wanted to look cool. Then of course there’s that time he LEFT THE FUCKING TEAM and left us without of one of the better pure shooters in the league in favor of playing basketball in Spain. Fuck Terrance Oglesby.

  19. 19Willy MacNo Gravatar on May 27, 2009 at 7:04 pm:

    @18 – “Then of course there’s that time he LEFT THE FUCKING TEAM…” LOL I nearly died.

  20. 20SandlapperNo Gravatar on May 27, 2009 at 9:45 pm:

    Wow, this shocked me…

  21. 21CUvinnyNo Gravatar on May 27, 2009 at 11:38 pm:

    “Then of course there’s that time he LEFT THE FUCKING TEAM”

    lol, guess i can’t argue with that. I’m not going to hate on him though, he made a good choice. He was never going to succeed in the ACC with everyone face guarding him and playing in a pressure defense. This move will help him develop into the kind of player he will be in the pros. A pure shooter who can pass pretty good and is decent at half court defense.

  22. 22PenthouseTigerNo Gravatar on May 27, 2009 at 11:42 pm:

    my guess is that his decision to leave was a combination of a pretty decent offer from some european teams, and him finding out that he would get less playing time for clemson next season, as smith can only get better and milton jennings has a pretty decent 3-ball

    best of luck to him though

    If this happened two or three years ago, it would have been devastating to the program. But as OP has really added his touch to this team (as well as a ton of talent) Ogelsby’s faults have become all too apparent. He takes bad shots with too much time left on the clock that leads to easy transition buckets for the other team. He refuses to work the ball inside-out even though we have a pretty good inside game against most other teams. He doesn’t move without the ball. He pouts. Have you been to Littlejohn this year? It never shows up on TV, but look at him during timeouts, especially if he’s a little off. He’s the only guy outside the huddle.

    I love his scoring and he has certainly kept us in or brought us back in many many games. He has also lost a lot of games due to terrible decisions. I really hope it works out for him in Europe, I do, but I also think that the Tigers are better off now.
