Prior to requesting a transfer, Kemp took to Twitter, announced that his time at Missouri had “been real.” The responses from fans were mixed, but mostly supportive.
While it’s disappointing that Kemp never had a chance to play for Missouri, these are the types of changes that occur when a new coaching staff takes over.
Later in the afternoon, head coach Cuonzo Martin stated in a press release, that Kemp received his release. While the change is bitter-sweet, we wish Kemp continued success, wherever he lands.
Jakoby Kemp received his release from our program, and he will pursue other opportunities going forward.
