I wasn’t there certainly but they’ve always been forthcoming with me in the past and it was described to me as a combination of two issues :  1. He got down there and truly didn’t like being away from home 2. They did a media session with him and made a video and posted it and of course he had quite a bit of hype ( deserved or not ) coming in and the two kids who were returning having one freshman conference player of the year and the fifth year senior didn’t seem to be fans.  Nothing negative was said about those kids but the impression I took was he was definitely not made to feel welcome.   I think he felt like with those two things combined he had people that liked him at ball state and it was right in his back door and certainly wasn’t worse than a lateral move in competition.

 

there is a poster here who knows josh smith from Monrovia well he would have good input because I’m only getting one side of the story 

Completely caught the team and coaches off guard. That’s pretty much all I’ll say about it. He went out to eat with several players and all had a great time. The next morning the coach let them know he left the team. The team doesn’t have any hard feelings.
