Two more players have left the Salukis after their home loss to UNI. Torres Roundtree left the team saying that he didn't fit in with the offense. While it is true that he wasn't producing big numbers offensively, it's difficult to believe that was his only reason for leaving.
Roundtree was suspended for the St. Mary's game for "violating team rules." However there was wide speculation that the reason for his suspension was because of a threat to quit the team. Now it appears that he's followed through on that and will no longer be a Saluki. The loss of Roundtree is unfortunate, but the presence of Dillard, Hare, and Bocot soften the blow of his departure.
Christian Cornelius didn't play vs UNI, but his departure is still unexpected. From my observations Cornelius always had a good attitude, and Lowery had previously expressed a desire for Christian to stay with the team. After working through a serious knee injury CC had played in all 12 of the Salukis previous games this season.
