After weeks of affirming his commitment to the Washington State Cougars, even in the wake of the firing of Ernie Kent, juco guard Ryan Murphy has had a sudden change of heart and has asked for a release from his letter of intent, according to VerbalCommits.com.
No reason has been given for the request, which is odd given that Murphy had said he was still excited to come to Pullman if the new staff would have him; during the recruiting process, he said he “fell in love” with WSU.
The shooting guard was with the Charlotte 49ers for two years, redshirting his first year before coming off the bench to average 6.
