2023 Portal Transfers

[TAMU, Knower of Ball]

It's 100% money-related.  Zona offered what Creighton wasn't able to get to.
Word is that Scheierman is back, Kaluma will declare for the NBA (not get the feedback he wants and then transfer), Alexander and Kalkbrenner will declare for the NBA (not get the feedback they want and come back).

If they can't afford Nembhard they can't afford Abmas.  They're looking at Andrew Rohde from St. Thomas and Charles Pride from Bryant from the sounds of it.  Also going to Florida to try and find a PG bigger than Nembhard.

Could certainly be. I've been led to believe that they have that kind of cash if needed. Maybe that kind of cash but not for a player like Nembhard.

Absolutely, didn't mean to sound dismissive so my apologies.

Creighton definitely has deeper pockets than people think and a rabid fanbase as the only show in town.  Was just passing along what I was told.  We'll see if anyone else follows suit (Kaluma).  Maybe since Nembhard and Alexander were so close Trey would be compelled to go back to Oklahoma with a ton of money too.

As someone who despises Creighton and UW I'd love to see Hepburn replace him.

No need to apologize I didn't take your post as dismissive. I'm not doubting your information, you've always provided good insight, I'm just surprised at the number. I expected Big East schools to be outbid for recruits and transfers, just not Creighton.

Nembhard is in portal now.

If Arizona offers this guy 1M, what is Kolek, Campbell from UCLA, Harris from Kansas, and others worth?  That figure seems just way overboard. 

Max Abmas’s coach from Oral Roberts is now at Witchita State, FYI.

Kaluma should transfer IMO.  He's so much better than Creighton's offense allows him to be.

He could elevate his stock in a major way playing elsewhere.

It wasn’t Creighton’s offense that held Kaluma back - it was his inconsistency and carelessness.  IMO, Alexander has the biggest upside of anyone on their roster.

cute.
 Maybe the university will be fined heavily like Miami was for the cavinder twins

Man that sucks for Creighton and the Big East. I think we all feel their pain..

They might be able to get Hunter Sallis to come home.

There is no limit to what they are worth, but Kolek would have to sit a year to transfer again so I wouldn't be surprised to see Shaka continue to add young transfers with a lot of eligibility (similar to OMax and TK when they transferred in).  Their player retention would likely continue to be higher due to the players not being able to transfer again without sitting out.

I don't agree at all. Dude is what he is, mediocre. Doesn't really demand the ball, doesn't really convert at a high level when he gets it. He can create some highlight reel plays due to his athleticism, but he's just a decent complimentary player. If he was better than Creighton's offense allows him to be, he'd be shooting better than 29.1% from three for his career, rebounding more, and turning it over less. As a freshman, he looked comparable to Justin Lewis, as a sophomore, he was just a guy. Considering how good some of the guys around him were, how good Creighton's offense was, and how good McDermott's offense has been historically, I find it hard to blame the system when the problem is more likely the least efficient offensive player in the starting lineup.

I’m sure the NCAA is looking into it

Numbers-wise maybe, I'm not really fluent in metrics, but his skillset and body is much more like OMax than Justin.

OMax found a way to be one of the more efficient scorers in the country around the basket and improved his 3 point shooting as well in an offense that allows him to get open jump shots and attack the basket.

Watching highlight tapes, Kaluma and OMax are near identical in a lot of ways.

Haven't we discussed all year how foreign NIL isn't allowed?

Wasn't Nembhard on OMax's Canadian National Team?

1/ Do you think any NIL rules are being followed or will be enforced?

2/ Did you read the posts where the foreign players travel outside the US to collect payment.

1) Yes, I would think so with the NCAA being strict with rules when something obvious presents itself.

2) No I did not.

Chapel Hill is a fun college town and all. However,  Kam is in an ideal situation, his running mate Tyler has been quoted many times in interviews saying he wants Kam to shoot the ball every time he touches it. Impossible to replace that.

Maybe he wants to stand and not play defense while watching Bacot take 23 hook shots per game

Again, the limitation of foreigners not being eligible for NIL is not a NCAA rule, it’s a US Visa rule because they’re here on student visas, not work visas.

[WhiteTrash]

If the number is a million, I think Creighton could probably swing it. Might not just be about the money.

You know the old saying; "when they say it's not about the money, it's not about the money"

I got that right?

Dude is a sockpuppet following only weird betting accounts and creighton accounts, followed by one "this mf paid for twitter" blue check and a random data page.

That there is trolling...





but I agree, I could do without that doubt in my life.

Let’s be honest, Kam likely just wants a cameo on Outer Banks of his own

Can't we just get Marcus Lemonis to get him on an episode of The Renovator instead?

[wadesworld]

Yes. Those Carolina guards and wings just stood around as Bacot got all the shots. Caleb Love’s departure opens up no shots for a guard to come in and replace, and RJ Davis never gets to shoot the ball.
