Mills must be having difficulty finding the right situation. He's obviously got one foot out the door.
In today's Thorburn chat, Ryan stated with certainty that Shannon Sharpe will not be with the program this year. Additionally, Mills is still deciding.
The quote:
"Ben Mills is still on campus going through "Maymester." The big guy is weighing some options whether to transfer to another program or remain at CU. Shannon Sharpe will not be back next year. That means Boyle will have at least two scholarships for 2012 (Sabatino Chen is the only senior next season) and at least three if Andre Roberson were to turn pro. The Buffs plan to bank Sharpe's scholarship for 2013 unless an "impact" transfer were to join the program."

Additional from Thorburn on Sharpe's transfer:
"I can tell you this is more about family responsibility than lack of playing time. He's trying to find a place to play in Southern California."
That's the sense I've gotten as well.Originally Posted by aNIKin
wow, something must have changed. Earlier he was looking at schools in the Northeast. This has been a flip flop situation for sure.
Claiming a family hardship and getting an NCAA waiver keeps you from sitting out a year.
lawyered!
Good, still wish we woulda banked Stalzer's scholly
Sharpe out.. Mills on his way.. Wow things change quick.
Like the strategy to hold the scholarship for 2013. Such a good recruiting class we are in on.
supposed both Mills and Sharpe leave, that leaves us this 3 scholarships that will open up for next year. Now can Tad sign four guys in Feb, expecting that a spot will open up from dre going to the NBA? Can he oversign the class?
yes. He can oversign if he wants. He can also wait until he knows for sure that 'Dre is coming out... A lot of good players will have signed in the fall though.
I hear Sharpe's going to Cal State Fullerton
If true, I wish him well. Hopefully he'll get some PT if he transfers.
Also, the article states 2 schollies with a Sharpe transfer, but I thought it would only be one? I'm pretty sure Chen will need to pay his own way next year, so nothing opens up when he leaves.
Staltzer is getting Chen's scholarship next year. For the 2013 class, Chen is already gone. Assuming Sharpe leaves as is being reported, that opens up two scholarships for the 2013 class. If Mills leaves or if Dre declares for the NBA, that's another two potential scholarships for that same class.
I am officially dreaming for back to back top 25 recruiting classes.
