read this off of NorCal HS & College Basketball central blog.

Kiwi gone from Providence?
The following is a line from a Jim Donaldson/Providence Journal column: "...Kiwi Gardner appears to be gone, never having played a game for PC...

Now this isn't definitive but, if true, please realign your values if this happens to bring you some sort of warped satisfaction.

Weird considering they just lost Kris Dunn to an injury and the the kid Ledo they recruited has not been cleared!
He is fun to watch althought I don't if "his style" of play wins you games in college balll consistently... be fun to see him out here on the left coast!

Went to fake prep school and never had any real high school classes. Academically ineligible all last year due to lack of credits. Plus he is totally uncoachable with a terrible attitude. Was ecstatic when Matt Barnes punched the white kid at ProAm last year. Will probably try a JC before he disappears completely.

This reminds me of the funniest thing I found when doing a quick search to see what the current story is with Kiwi. Not only does he have a fairly entertaining twitter feed (@KiwiLoveThaKids), but there is an even funnier twitter handle that 'translates' his tweets: @KiwiTranslator.

It sounds like he has had a string of bad advice. From what I have read, his coach at MHS (my h.s. alma mater -- Go Buffs!) really didn't want him to leave to go play at that "school" in Arizona. There are a lot of bugs in these kids' ears, and not all of them are providing the best advice in the world. It's too bad: sounds like he could be a decent D1 player.

Look as long as he is playing somewhere... I just don't understand how you wait til' September to make a decision when most schools are starting this month.

We only have one ride for 2013- I don't think we would take a chance due to academics
