Transfer portal

And it's not even close to be honest. That's with all due respect to DJ Carton who was a fantastic get. Kentucky fans have been blowing up his social media for weeks..EVERYONE and I mean everyone will be on him, including MU.

What do you think MU's chances are?

[BCHoopster]

What do you think MU's chances are?

Slim and none!

[muguru]

What do you think MU's chances are?

Probably slim and none, but...I do think Killings might have a connection there somewhere, that's based strictly off of the fact that he has followed him on twitter for a long time.

Being called cheeks is a lifetime low

[JakeBarnes]

Olivier Saar of Wake Forest.  7 footer.  All ACC. 14 and 9.  Damn. Applying for a waiver.  Daaaaaammmnnn.

Want. Always be recruiting.

As low as Tweeting/Instagramming/Facebooking a 17 year old boy/recruit?

Eh...Give me Carton over Sarr, especially if you factor in Sarr only having 1 year left and Carton theoretically having 3. Sarr put up big numbers for a very bad team in a down ACC. Don't get me wrong, still one of the top transfers of the year, maybe #2, but I'd take Carton first.

Arguably, Carton isn't even the best transfer even if you don't include Sarr.

Sure, its all a matter of opinion. Personally, I think a former 5-star, with three years left, who averaged double digit scoring with tremendous efficiency numbers, for a top 10 team, that plays the most important position on the floor is the top transfer available.

Yep.   Carton is no longer the big shiny prize after a couple weeks.  People lose focus quickly.

The problem is, there's a better chance of one of us playing for MU next year than there is of Carton staying all 3 years. Probably slim chance he's at MU two years. Hope he is, but doubtful. Sarr is a beast...10 double doubles last year, and let's remember he played in the ACC he faced good competition every night as well. take nothing away from DJ, again a fantastic get, but I can 100% assure you there will be far more schools(including bluebloods) chasing Sarr, then there ever were chasing DJ. What does that tell you??

That DJ said that he wanted to be closer to home because of his mental health issues, and Sarr has pretty much said that he wants to win, and is willing to go anywhere to do that.  I also believe I read that he (Sarr) said that if he doesn't get a waiver to play immediately that he's going to go pro in Europe.  There's also been much more media focus on Sarr because of the fact that the Manning situation had been developing for months, while Carton very intentionally played things close to the vest, as well as his actions being spread out (ie taking a leave months ago) whereas everything "official" with Wake has happened in about a weeks time.

The good news, it doesn't have to be either or. We have Carton. Now let's get Sarr.

This. Sarr will be a great get for whomever gets him, but Carton is still the biggest prize this off-season.

[The Hippie Satan of Hyperbole]

So the question will be...where will Saar Land.

The Big 10 was much better than the ACC last season and I don't know how accurate your statement about more schools chasing Sarr is. I think just about every school in the country reached out to Carton but he made it quickly known that he wanted to stay closer to home. I'd also point out that there has been very few big men quality big man transfers this season, lack of supply creates more demand.

I'd also point out your first sentence. If you think Carton is a lock to go pro after 2 seasons and Sarr is going to play all 4 years of college, what does that tell you?

I'd also like to be clear again, I'm not knocking Sarr at all. He'll be fantastic for whoever gets him. I just think that highly of Carton.

Laughed at this. Also nodded my head in agreement.

Haven't you said you want programs to do whatever it takes to win? DePaul appears to be doing just that
