Angel Nunez will be moving on to another basketball program, transferring after the current semester, according to reports.
Nunez arrived at Louisville with a reputation as a shooter but defense comes first for Rick Pitino. Falling short in that department so we never saw much of his offensive prowess.
Pitino said that Nunez had recently suffered a concussion, one of the worst he had ever seen. Hopefully, he’s on the road to recovery.
Likable player, sorry it didn’t work out for him. Wish him well wherever he decides to go.
Have to wonder if this tweet by Bria Smith, of the women’s basketball team and a friend of Nunez pre-dating their arrival at UofL, is related:
Nothing will change my feelings for him… when a lot of pain comes out of putting your trust into someone the past is always relevant.

Seemed like a decent young man! Hope he finds a niche at another school where he can do well.
