sophomore point guard JaQuori McLaughlin has been granted his release and will transfer.
McLaughlin started 35 of 38 games during his Oregon State career, averaging 9.3 points, 3.3 assists and 2.3 rebounds.
"Being a student-athlete is a lot of work and there are some challenges that I've been faced with that have impacted me and kept me from being able to compete to the best of my ability in a way that would help my team win games," McLaughlin said in a statement OSU released Friday.
"... This was an important decision that I did not take lightly and I apologize to the fans that have been supportive and treated me so well, even through tough times.
