On Friday afternoon, Andrew Hattersley of Gig247 confirmed with an athletic department spokesperson that Texas A&M small forward Rob Dockery is no longer part of the team. The redshirt sophomore saw action in the first two games before logging zero in the last two.
On a team full of 6’7″ forwards and a veteran lineup getting on the court as a redshirt freshman was going to be tough. While we do not know why Dockery is no longer with the team the eye test would say playing time might have played a slight role. The former Washington, D.C. All-State forward averaged 14 points, 6 rebounds, and 3 assists choosing Texas A&M over schools like Maryland and Rutgers.
A&M has a challenging road test when they travel to Las Vegas for the Player Era Festival Tournament where they will open up with Oregon and No. 14 Creighton. Game one will be on Nov 26 at 3:30 pm CST and can be seen on TBS.
