According to Dan Collins of the Winston-Salem Journal, sophomore Ari Stewart has asked for and been granted his release from Wake Forest University.
"It provides another young man with an opportunity,’’ Bzdelik said of Stewart’s departure.
We wish Ari Stewart nothing but the best here at Blogger So Dear. Hopefully he will find a school that he will succeed and thrive in academics and basketball. On a Wake Forest related note, this opens up another scholarship for Jeff Bzdelik to use for the 2011 or 2012 class. This could be critical in getting a big guy, hopefully a 2011 big guy, in the next month or so.
One would think that Xavier could be a likely destination for Ari due to the ties between the Wake Forest and Xavier coaching staffs. We will present any news as we get it on his destination.
