With the remaking of UConn's roster in progress, guard Terrence Samuel has decided to move on.
Samuel, who played a key role as a freshman in the Huskies' 2014 championship, has asked for his transfer and the school granted him his release, UConn announced Thursday.
"Terrence has been a player who has always given his best on the court and in the classroom," coach Kevin Ollie said. "We thank him for his contributions to the program and wish him good luck and much success in his future endeavors."
Samuel completed his sophomore year with final exams this week.
