| === Sallie to forego remaining eligibility === Memphis, TN (Sports Network) - Memphis junior guard Roburt Sallie announced he will forego his remaining eligibility and will explore playing opportunities elsewhere. Sallie is due to graduate this summer. Even though he has a year of playing eligibility left, Sallie intends to play closer to his home in Sacramento or will try to latch on with a team overseas. "This was a very difficult decision for me because of my love for Memphis - the city and university," said Sallie. "But, I am moving into a different stage of my life with graduation in August, and I feel it's time to move forward." Sallie played in 70 games and made 21 starts, at Memphis. He had career averages of 8.2 points and 2.8 rebounds. During 2009 NCAA Tournament first- round game against Cal State Northridge, Sallie came off the bench and hit a school-record 10 three-pointers. 05/19 18:11:30 ET |
