The story I heard had Rollie attending UM team football camp with Hellgate players prior to his senior year. This just happened to be at the time there was basketball camp or some other basketball activity. Travis found out when Rollie wasn’t at basketball and called a meeting to question Rollie’s commitment to basketball. Parents got involved, things escalated and Rollie de-committed. This was told to me a while ago so I may have missed a detail or two. Obviously, I can’t confirm this is actually what went down, but I trust my source. It seemed like both sides were disappointed with communication from the other.
If this is, indeed, what happened, and why, then Rollie and I are very similar in our attitudes. I know it would be a cold day in hell before I would return to TD. Beyond that...
