There are articles where Angel said he spent several weeks pondering a transfer but gave oscar a chance to re-recruit him. oscar was quoted several times during this period saying he thought everybody was coming back but wasn't for sure on Angel. It's pretty obvious that a transfer was discussed with Angel at some point in time after oscar was hired.
It's just a matter of what he was told when he brought up the subject. Somehow they convinced him to stay when nobody thought he was likely to do so. So he stays and the year went about as well as it possibly could have for both him and the team. Yet he decides to transfer anyway when everybody thought it was a dead issue.
Well I guess I am confused. Was Sys saying that Angel had contemplated transferring at any point before 2012-13? Or was he saying that Angel had requested a transfer prior to 2012-13? If we are going to argue semantics we may be here a while.
My original statement was that Angel never expressed a desire to transfer prior to 2012-13. By that I meant, told oscar or a K-State admin that he was going to transfer. I apologize if I misunderstood Sys saying I was factually incorrect, or if my original statement was not clear.
You are correct, that Angel was re-recruited by oscar like the rest of the MBB roster after the coaching change.
And really, my original point was that no deal of staying/release was ever offered to Angel.
