^^ Last week the same source posted this about teams interested in Sean:
Sean Paul
@SeanPaulCBB
· Dec 15
JUCO Player of the Year candidate Sean East II has received interest from Georgia, BYU, Missouri, Louisiana, UAB, Cincy, Jackson State and others, per source. Missouri and DePaul recently attended John A. Logan games
If he gets an offer from BYU, MO or Cincy he won't be coming back here. I doubt he's come back here anyway.

Good for him... that's certainly some very strong interest. I hope he does well!

23.1 ppg, shooting 57.3% and 43.6% on 3's, 5.4 rpg, 5.0 apg. No wonder he's a POY candidate.

Yeah, he's a fantastic player. I loved watching him weave in and out of the paint. He's so sneaky and patient with some of the things he does. Would he be interested in coming back here now that Bergeron is gone? Who knows. Rich Kelly is gone after this year, and I think they both have a similar style in terms of nosing around in the paint instead of hanging out at the 3-pt line all day.

Love Sean East, I think he'd thrive here in an uptempo pace. He can get in the lane & score, kick it out, or hit that nice floater he has. Always been a fan of his

Wasn't his departure more grades related than anything else? Or am I mixing him up with someone else?

That’s what I remember as well. I don’t think he had a choice to stay.

He was never ineligible while with us, he played in all 32 games. And he played in 24 of Bradley's 28 last season. The 4 he missed were in a consecutive stretch 2/1 - 2/10, not sure why.

He could have bombed his second semester. I'm assuming grades were involved because he ended up at juco.
