We actually DO now have a clue thanks to some info per the other site, and it's not a great look for Terry.

Yes, it is clear that something new happened. The range of things that could happen 1.5 years after he departed Stanford has nothing to do with coaching style or experience at Stanford. It may include any of the following:
1) Slander from someone at Stanford saying something negative about TT
2) Stanford denying a request that TT made such as access to facilities or free tuition to take classes
3) Stanford asking TT for something that he doesn't think is fair (i.e. paying back tuition or room and board or some other benefit perhaps for NCAA compliance reasons) after he declared for the draft
4) An academic issue: denying credit in classes that he thought he should have gotten credit for

Not sure what else it could be, but this is clearly a new issue and he feels Stanford needs to come clean with an explanation.  My guess is there is some petty issue that Stanford was trying to pursue with him, and his response is, really?

I see no reason why Stanford shouldn't just come out and nip this in the bud with a statement like:

Like many other Division I universities, Stanford scholarship athletes have the option to leave school early and return to school at a later time. However, the student-athlete must complete two full academic years in order to be eligible for continuation of their scholarship benefits.

Because 1. it doesn't matter and will blow over shortly, and 2. Terry has not actually publicly stated this as the reason he's mad.
