Five-star freshman center Mitchell Robinson of Chalmette, who signed with Western Kentucky, left school last Thursday two weeks into summer school.

On Monday, WKU basketball coach Rick Stansbury suspended Mitchell indefinitely for a violation of team rules, which only makes sense if Mitchell plans to return to team.

According to a source of ESPN's Jeff Goodman, the 7-foot Robinson wants out and doesn't mind sitting out a year in accordance with the NCAA transfer rules.

If Robinson does transfer, he'll likely head to other schools that were on his list of finalists such LSU, Tulane, Alabama, Troy, UMass and Texas A&M, among others.
