In Wednesday’s thrilling 63-62 win over Rhode Island, nine players spent time on the floor for VCU.
Conspicuously absent from that group was sophomore guard Tre Clark, who had come off the bench in every game to that point. Clark made the trip to Rhode Island and was seen in a shootaround video posted on the VCU basketball team’s Instagram story. But Clark, who averaged 16.1 minutes per game, did not enter the game.
When asked after the game, head coach Mike Rhoades only said that Clark did not appear because of a “university suspension.”
From there, things moved rather quickly. On Thursday afternoon, VCU announced that Tre Clark had left the team.
“Tre Clark is no longer a member of the men’s basketball program at VCU,” a statement from VCU Athletics said. “We are not allowed to comment further on this matter.”
On Friday, 247Sports broke the news that Clark entered the transfer portal.
