2023 Portal Transfers

Drop.  That.  Bag.

[TSmith34, Inc.]

Of 40% min guys in HM bball last year, 157 guys were listed 6’8” or taller. OMax ranked #154 in blk%

This will relegate OMax to the Madagascar league, probably.

[GoldenEagles03]

I just cannot picture Marquette adding a starting caliber player.

Adrame Diongue would be a guy I'd love to see this team pursue. 7 footer out of Washington State with ties to Chandler AZ, which has been a bit of a Marquette pipeline.

Could use some length and size to back up Oso and would allow Ben to play more at the 4.

Is there a site that lists players who have entered, but withdrawn from, the draft?

The little bit I've heard about this Wembanyama kid, it seems like it would be worth it for Shaka to gauge his interest on playing a year or two at Marquette.

With all due respect, you probably did not envision Omax getting drafting this season. Just curious, will you be disappointed if Shaka lands a 20mpg guy?

[Boone]

Will be pleasantly surprised if we add anyone

I thought OMax was an NBA caliber player that would be on the fence with his decision, but this last 2 weeks or so he really separated himself.

I wouldn't be disappointed if they added a 20mpg guy, just would be surprised.

I think Goose is asking “two years ago when Shaka added Omax, did you envision him getting drafted two years later?”

I did not, and that’s why I trust Shaka

There was some skepticism by scoopers regarding Shaka when he was hired. Much of it disappeared after his first season and after last season, only certifiable whackos/trolls like nolonger post anything challenging his coaching acumen. So like you....I trust Shaka.

Whether he goes only with his current guys or brings someone in from the portal, let's take a deep breath, knowing his decision is the best (and, of course, the only one  ).

Long term, Marquette /Shaka will benefit greatly if an under our radar guy gets drafted, possibly in the first round.

I’d suggest people look at what John Beilein did with players such as this at Michigan.  Granted, it’s part of what drove him from the college game but he managed to win a lot and find players no one suspected were leaving after year 2 or 3

[GoldenEagles03]

Georgetown, who originally thought they were favorites for land Cam Spencer, has lost traction due to some other bigtime suitors.

They don't call it portal combat for nothin'.
