2021 Transfer Portal

Will not be surprised if Dawson and DJ both enter the transfer portal

Ooof. Just win you thought Ewing was turning a corner.

Georgetown was losing Blair, Pickett, Bile and Carey, left the cupboard really bare for next year.  Now Wahab, that's bad, but Mutombo's kid is enroute.  Wonder if the Top 15 guard recruit might change his mind. 

Xavier lost Tandy and Wilcher, two top recruits in last two years, plus two others.  SJU just lost a bunch.

There is talent out there and a few weeks to go.

Wojo was the main reason both came here, also heard Dawson is tight with the new Minnesota coach?

DJ would have to sit a year, right?

Looks like it's time for all of us to look at instagram posts again.

I believe the NCAA announced transfers will not have to sit a year because of COVID.

Ok was curious if there was new information. Still hoping Scholl's convinced them to at least talk to the new coach before deciding to leave.

I have a feeling this is the case. The complete radio silence is pretty impressive. Maybe I just have a low bar on coaching searches given everything was such a sh*tshow last time.

That's an understatement.

This, then see.  No information, just people's thoughts at the present time.

That being said, the transfer portal players currently enrolled is thriving with talent.  Some schools are going to get some really good starting and role players.

I think Moser would have a tough time hanging on to most of the roster (which doesn't matter if he's THE guy). Other coaches would probably keep more of the roster in tact (which doesn't matter if they aren't THE guy).

I think retaining Gainey would go a long way to retaining some of the key players and recruits. I'm sure the idea will be pitched to the new coach.

Roster turnover isn't always a bad thing, aina?

Maybe so, but they might feel different after seeing a year of Wojo "trying" to coach

Its only for guys that have not already transferred.  DJ transfers again, he sits.  I don't really see that as a viable option.  He may very well go pro, but can't see transferring again being a good option for DJ.

Impressive.  *So far* MU without a coach is doing better on the transfer front than BE schools that are retaining their coach.

All likely to change, but impressive so far.

[GoldenDieners32]

Also not sure if mentioned, Jaemyn Brakefield from duke is transferring, originally from WI.

Scholl has all the players locked, handcuffed and muzzled in Guantanamo.

Marquette - where player retention is far more than just platitudes.

Why do you feel this way more so about Moser?

Why do you feel this way more so about Moser?

I don't think his system is a match for our current roster. I don't think a lot of our roster would want to play in his system and I'm not sure he'd want most of our roster for his system. Again, if he's THE guy, that doesn't matta.

Players want to win.....Players want "culture".....

Butler would not even be an NBA player without Buzz.....Let alone star.....

Teaching .....skills, discipline, culture and winning are great recruiting and retention tools.....If kids want to "free-wheel" .....Have a decent college "scoring" career......Ignore "team".....and then make money in Europe.....That is their prerogative.....

It is not mistake that the players that have succeeded at the NBA grew substantially under Buzz and Moser has a "different" but the "same" skill set.....

Can you imagine what he could do for Garcia????

I'd agree with that on Carton and Garcia. Though I could see him really liking Justin's methodical classic post game.

Pitt's starting PF (Abdoul Karim Coulibaly - 5.2 points, 3.9 rebounds, 0.9 blocks per game) just entered the transfer portal, giving them 5 transfers this late season/offseason. 

Factoring in that their best player (Justin Champagnie) is more than likely entering the draft, they have no 2021 signees, and one of their freshman big men was suspended indefinitely for stealing a car, they'll likely have at least 8 scholarships available for next year.  Can't see Capel saving his job after next season, so he might as well send out a blast email to the 800+ transfers on the market - first 8 to respond make the team.
