OT: Why in the world would Hood transfer to WKU of all places?
Oh. Don't know for sure .. just the chatter at UK is he's heading to WKU. Doesn't make any sense to me, unless he just wants to play 40 minutes.
NBAdraft.net actually has Hood going 6th overall next year
. Too bad he is going to spend a year in transfer purgatory.

I thought MSU let its coach go, so he can transfer without sitting out a year. Am I missing something?
The coach retired. Is there a rule for a coach leaving/quitting/retiring/fired that allows players a direct transfer?

Yes, I couldn't tell you why, but I know that there is. Hopefully PKM can clear this up for us.
I am not aware of any rule that waives the transfer rules based on a coaching change. Sometimes you can get out of it if you are having a family medical emergency (IE your father has terminal cancer.) Also if you have graduated college but still have college eligiblity left you can go and start grad school and play immediately. The only other out I know if if your program have NCAA sanctions that prevent you from reaching the post season for the rest of your college career.
If you have never paid for the team you have commited for and the Coach leaves (before you arrive) you can usually get a release from the school and play immediately.
I believe Hood would have to sit out a year at Louisville or WKU.

Basically. And he has the handles to get by his man on the perimeter. I can see lots of PF's getting frustrated trying to guard him outside of the paint.
