UH fans are by far the wackiest in rationale. Last yearās ForeverCoogs team had a PG who never played at UH, but I just read a 87-post back n forth about Caleb.

Wilson turned into Jordan mindset during garbage time so wonāt be surprised to see him take a lot of shots.
Well the pg that never played for UH never quit on his teamā¦.so letās compare apples to apples.

Iām not trying to start an argument but didnāt t Mills transfer out during an ankle injury? If I recall correctly he wasnāt even playing when he transferred.
Quote āThis decision allows me to play closer to home and is best for me and my family.ā
I donāt see how this is a quitting on his team. Maybe if he didnāt get injured perhaps he would have stayed? Hard to say. But I do think he made his decision to transfer based on being injured. I donāt see how that is quitting. But thatās my opinion.
mylik over mills starting? with galen also starting???
i get that we are upset at millsā¦ but

@pesik Mills 1 yr since that injury.
We havenāt seen him play since. I hope he looks recovered
fractured patella (kneecap)
Our era values loyalty and commitment - these kids have bounced around from AAU to AAU and got unlimited transfers by the ncaa and their peers donāt care so I doubt theyāll have an issue with someone quitting these days and coming back
he did quit the teamā¦ he quit after he came back from the injury and was on the benchā¦
he played as bench, went home for winter break, didnāt come backā¦ team announced he would be out on personal leave, sampson noted he was looking forward to him coming backā¦
a few days later announced he was transferring ā¦ he definitely quit
But I have never personally held it against Mills, because being honest Iāve always felt that his family played more of a role in that than him (left when he was home for new years), because he did an interview right before he left about how he was looking forward to playing a big role for this team and helping us contend. I just believe his fam saw him more of a star player being the preseason player of the year, but yet coming off the bench. So I think they influenced his hand on that. Not to mention he wanted to play PG, which we werenāt even giving him ball handling roles.
I know some people hold grudges against him, but I donāt. One, you have to do what you feel is best for your career. And secondly, I believe you are free to identify as whatever you want to post graduation. I remember after he left, he would always repost things about the coogs because he was really, really close with Sasser, and both of them would just constantly hype each other up on social media. And I remember even after he left, there was an Instagram story of both of them FaceTiming each other in their opposing locker rooms.If he sees himself as a Coog, I see him as a Coog. I believe you should be able to identify as whatever you want.
Note that there is a Memphis team, North Carolina team and there are two different Florida teams and yet he chose to be with the Coogs. let old wounds heal. it was distasteful how he left but its time to let old wounds heal. if he wants to be part of the community i welcome it

The prodigal son has returned.
If you look at his story, i feel some sympathy. Season ending injury in his Senior Year.
Hes 24 yrs old, about to be 25. Hope he figures things out.

Saying he didnāt quit and taking quotes that appeared to not fit his narrative is wrong. He did quit but at the same time if he is willing to come back here and face the music I am all for it.
I am so happy Rob Gray has gotten this started. It serves as a catalyst to get our former players together and create more UH bonds.
Now looking at the rosters it looks like we need some bigs and I am not sure Pollard is as good having to log big minutes. So what if JāWan and Francis may be options after the NBA summer leagues?

Caleb certainly had offensive talent. He was a finesse player. He mostly came off the bench, which I am sure frustrated him. Keep in mind UH also had Sasser, Q, and Jarreau at the time. Those players had more dog in them than Caleb. Caleb seemed to always be nursing an injury, which hampered his development. The breaking point as I remember was when Coach read him the riot act after a mistake, and poked him in the chest as Caleb was coming off the court. I imagine that scene did not play well with Calebās family. Even after Calebās departure, I read that he still kept in touch with several UH players. He did quit on his UH team, but if the team is okay with him being on TBT, its not worth making a big deal about.

I always thought Caleb should have stayed for our superior defensive training. He doesnāt have the physicality to be a great defender, but I thought he had the knack for knowing how to get in the way of his man. LJ has this also
