Craft spent only one season at TSU after transferring from Wright State in 2005-06. He sat out the 2006-07 season and then started four games for the Tigers last season.
Craft, who will be a junior this season, played in 25 games and averaged 7.5 minutes per game. He averaged 1.2 points and 1.6 rebounds while blocking 11 shots. TSU Coach Cy Alexander said Craft left so he could be closer to his fiancรฉe, who lives in Oregon. It wasn't anything against TSU or anything negative against James," Alexander said. "He wanted to be closer to his family and I applaud him for that and wish him the best in what he is trying to do."
