The rumors have been out that the Wears may be transferring, and as is typical there's at least a little truth to every rumor you hear. Frank Burlison of the Long Beach Press-Telegram broke the story...
Dave Wear said he discussed the decision with Tar Heels' coach Roy Williams earlier in the evening by telephone and that he hoped that his sons would be released from their scholarship agreements with the school ``as early as Thursday".
Wear wouldn't offer any details as to why the players (who took their last spring semester finals today) were making the move other than to say ``they decided they didn't want to return to North Carolina.
``When they return home (in Huntington Beach) we will sit down as a family and review their basketball and academic options,'' he said.
Looking at the Tarheels roster for next season, it is pretty clear that the Wears' minutes weren't going to increase substantially. Tyler Zeller will likely anchor the middle and with the emergence of John Henson and Harrison Barnes now on campus, starting was out of the question. There has also been some buzz that Will Graves will see more time at the 4 taking even more minutes away from both of the Wears.
