Gurganious will play at UC Riverside

Larry Gurganious, who recently announced his transfer from Gonzaga, will enroll at UC Riverside for summer courses and become a member of the team.

It was very well known after he announced his transfer, that Gurganious was likely to end up at a school closer to his home in Northern California. Gurganious has applied for a hardship waiver that would allow him to play next season and have 2 years of eligibility remaining. There is a good chance that this could be granted, as the main reason behind his transfer was family issues. Should the waiver be rejected, Gurganious will sit out this upcoming season, and then have 1 year of eligibility remaining.

As a big supporter of LG, and his contributions on the court, I am very interested to see how his career will end up. I really believe that if he is completely healthy, and granted this waiver, that he will be a starter and put up some great numbers at UC Riverside. Consider this a TKR prediction, but I believe that Theo Davis and LG will both earn POY awards in their respective conferences by the time their careers are over. TKR would also like to wish LG the best for his career and also that all his family issues are resolved.

LG to transfer

After weeks of speculation, it has been officially announced that Larry Gurganious will be transferring away from GU. Gurganious will be a Redshirt Junior next season, and is said to be considering many schools back in California. Should he transfer to another Division 1 school, LG will be applying for a personal hardship waiver. If granted, it would mean that LG would not be forced to sit out a full season.

LG came to Gonzaga from St. Mary's high school in Berkeley, CA and was regarded as one of the top wings on the west coast. Many fans will remember his GU debut, as in his first exhibition game, he had numerous steals that resulted in thunderous dunks. However, LG's time at GU was marked by injuries, as he had to redshirt his sophomore year because of a back injury. Despite being healed this past season, Gurganious received inconsistent playing time, although it appears that it was issues at home that caused the transfer.

The Kennel Report wishes LG all the best as he continues his basketball career at another school. I think we speak for all GU fans when we say that his athleticism and eye-opening dunks will be greatly missed. We wish LG all the luck in resolving whatever issues he may be having at home, and are sure that he will have great success wherever he may end up.
