Corey Chandler is torn....

As reported earlier, Corey Chandler strongly considered transferring from  the Rutgers men's basketball season after the conclusion of this season.  But it seems he has changed his mind.  This comes from a statement issued from Corey Chandler through the Rutgers athletic department:

 

"I am proud to be at Rutgers.  Earlier this week, I vented my frustrations after a tough loss, in a private phone call. I apologize to Coach Hill, the coaching staff and my teammates for the distraction it created. I look forward to remaining a Scarlet Knight and doing whatever I can to help the team win."

I, for one, am glad that he's decided to stay at RU (if he truly wants to).  With Chandler and Rosario, I think this team is set for a serious turnaround next year.  Like I said before, NIT in '10, NCAA's in '11.

Hopefully this is the end of the story, but you never know....this whole thing just seems contrived.  He's clearly unhappy with something (losing, playing time, the coaches, etc.), and it wouldn't surprise me to see him change his mind again after the Big East tournament.
