Brandon Moore Decides To Transfer

  Arkansas coach John Pelphrey announced today that forward Brandon Moore has decided to transfer, though a university release doesn’t indicate where the 6-foot-9, 215-pound sophomore is headed.

  “We appreciate all of Brandon’s efforts and contributions to the Razorback program,” Pelphrey said in a statement released through the university. “We wish him nothing but the best.”

  Moore’s decision to leave doesn’t come as a surprise. He averaged 1.9 points and 1.6 rebounds in 9.1 minutes per game as a freshman last season. He played in 25 games, but never started and saw limited playing time even though the Razorbacks were particularly thin in the paint.

  In addition, Moore was suspended for two games following his Jan. 19 arrest for driving while intoxicated and other traffic-related charges. He later received a 90-day suspended jail sentence and was ordered to take a defensive driving class as part of his sentence.

  Moore’s departure comes less than a week after forward Michael Washington announced that he was entering his name in the NBA Draft, though he left open the possibility of retuning to Arkansas next season by deciding not to hire an agent.
