Jovanni Sims transfers to JuCo
There has been some question about just what happened to freshman Jovanni Sims; I haven't heard anything about what happened besides what was in Tuesday's Montana Kaimin, which I'll gladly type up for everyone because it wasn't online. Thanks guys.
Freshman Jovanni Sims has left the University of Montana men's basketball team. Sims, a 6-foot-4-inch guard from Milwaukee was expected log some playing time this eyar for the Griz, but because of issues regarding his high school transcripts, had not been cleared to play by the NCAA.UM head coach Wayne Tinkle said Sims transferred to Midland College, a junior college in Midland, Texas.
"He just wanted to go somewhere he could play," said UM head coach Wayne Tinkle, who did not close the door on Sims possibly returning to Missoula in the future.
It's a shame Jio never found his way onto the court. This whole things sounds pretty complicated and unfair; I really hope he hones his skills and gets his grades squared away in Junior College and comes back to contribute in the future.
