  The anomalously large rates of some hadronic transitions from quarkonium are
studied using QCD multipole expansion (QCDME) in the framework of a constituent
quark model which has been successful in describing hadronic phenomenology. The
hybrid intermediate states needed in the QCDME method are calculated in a
natural extension of our constituent quark model based on the Quark Confining
String (QCS) scheme. Some of the anomalies are explained due to the presence of
an hybrid state with a mass near the mass of the decaying resonance whereas
other are justified by the presence of molecular components in the wave
function. Some unexpected results are pointed out.
