Correct. From my understanding his character was a red flag during the recruitment process (from his own coach) but his talent was so undeniable they tried to look past it. "im 6'6 and better than everyone else" was basically how my friend described his personality.
The staff thought they could work though it but but decided to part ways before the season because of how unbelievably terrible he treated everyone from coaches to teammates.
Like I said it's been a few years and hopefully he's humbled himself and matured since.
