Robert Washington (Yeah That One) to Valpo

[CuseLegacy]

He was a flop at UNC Charlotte.

Didn't he only play one year at UNCC? I thought he transfered out of there in 2017.

I believe he sat out last year. Freeze probably figures it is worth a chance.

Major family issues if i remember properly

He didn't get along with his father. Or his mother.

The topic of this thread is fascinating

 

[Finwad32]

He played one full season (2016) and then left 3 games into the next season (2017). He then sat out 18 and surfaced for this season (2019) at Liberty.

He was a significant contributor as a true Fr at Charlotte behind their Sr. As a So. He was the lead back but left the team 3 games in.

Doesn’t really concern me but I’ll be interested to see how he plays.

 

[OrangeDW]

97 carries for 489 yards (5.0 ypc), and 5 TDs as a freshman in 2016.

Looks like early on he was on track to have a strong college career.

Hopefully Robert has gotten his life headed in the right direction. It doesn't do anyone any good if he hasn't. Now on the football side, I only wish him success after our game.

Will Bazley forego his first year in the NBA to earn a degree at Liberty?

He will always think back fondly to the time he didn't spend at Liberty.

Interesting as it looked like he was going to transfer to ODU.

Wasn’t the sister/daughter a high level athlete as well? I vaguely remember there being talk of a brother/sister package deal.

Track athlete.

He just had his 20th HS reunion. Hugh Freeze is good.

Pretty amazing that Moe Neal was the much bigger impact college RB, as it all turned out.

Father. The old staff was talking to his dad and RW got pissed. He didn’t want them talking to his dad. He bailed right after that

 

[Marroniac]

Moe Neal will probably have at least 200 yards against Liberty now.

 

[orangencpolice]

No. The kid was his own worst enemy. Everyone else in that family has done fine.

I thought that he and Moe Neal are cousins. I wasn’t nearly as excited that Neal committed and more disappointed Washington backed out of a verbal commitment. Every time Neal has scored a touchdown for Cuse in the last two years, I wanted to kick myself in the rear end.

I was in the same boat. Didn’t think Neal was ACC level. He’s that and more and I think he is a major sleeper on this team this year.

The Heck with Washington. If he plays i hope we crush him.

Robert Washington says he decommitted based on lack of trust in Syracuse assistant

"If I can't trust my position coach, then we aren't going to go far in life," Washington said.

www.syracuse.com

When he explained why he de-committed, he said this:

"It wasn't mutual," Washington said. "I decided because of what DeAndre did and I didn't end up going. He was going to be the guy that I was going to be around all the time at Syracuse.

You can't at least call him Coach Smith?
This would have ended badly at Syracuse and would have lasted less than four years.

I think Scott Bakula might have a year left if Coach Freeze still needs a quarterback.

 

[Ewglenn]

-Liberty fan here

To straighten some of the questions on here he will have 2 years of eligibility remaining and will be eligible immediately. So he may get some carries in the Cuse game.

Update: Report states Robert Washington has joined ODU

Update 8/5/19: A report from The Virginian-Pilot states that Robert Washington has joined Old Dominion’s football team and practice for the first time with the Monarchs on Saturday. After he …

Congratulations, I was absolutely getting ready to drop a Necessary Roughness joke and you beat me to it.
