DJ Seeley to transfer?

According to Hoopmasters.com, Cal shooting guard D.J. Seeley will transfer away from Cal. Seeley averaged 2.4 points per game a season ago, and 2 the season before.




Seeley, a highly talented guard, was ranked in the Top 80 of recruits nationally and was expected to make an immediate impact. Apart from a few games, it hasn’t happened yet and now won’t ever happen in a Bear uniform. He was, however, expected to either start or be a sixth man on next year’s team. Seeley’s finest moment was in a victory over Washington when he was a freshman, as he made several clutch shots and scored 11 points in 16 minutes. He never cracked the rotation, which likely forced his transfer. Best of luck to him wherever he may go.



As for next season, this is a very tough blow to the club. With the seniors graduating and the up in the air status of Omondi Amoke, the Bears now return a mere 11.9 points per game of scoring from a year ago (excluding Nigel Carter and Bak Bak, both who rarely played). If Amoke returns, that number moves up to 16.7. What it does do is open up another scholarship, which Montgomery could use to land a replacement. For next year’s team, an added burden goes to Allen Crabbe and the other freshman to produce. The seasons rides on their shoulders now.



I wish D.J. the best of luck. Go Bears!
