According to the Tulsa World, Tommy Mason-Griffin has left the OU basketball team with no intention of returning.  If true, this would be yet another gut shot for a OU basketball program that appears to be teetering on the edge of absolute disaster.  Personally, I wasn't really worried about TMG leaving mainly due to his emergence as the leader (at least in terms of talent) of this team throughout the course of this terrible season.  Apparently, that wasn't enough to keep him here so it will be interesting to see where he winds up again should this story be proven to be true.  If he thinks he's going to the NBA then he's in for a very harsh reality check in my opinion.  Let's hear what you guys think.

Editor's Note - Keep in mind that nothing has been verified and some are still reporting that he was just back in Houston for the weekend.  That being said, the Tulsa World apparently felt like they had enough to report on the story. - Jon Woods
