Marquette grad transfer Duane Wilson tells me that he's considering Texas A&M, Arkansas, Nevada, Georgia Tech, Georgia, and Virginia.

UGA would get him one more game in the BC, yes?

Would MU block Georgia from his options? I have heard of places blocking schools that will be an opponent the following season.

Doubt it

I don't think Marquette would be able to block him even if they wanted to since he's a grad transfer.

Jon Rothstein sent out a tweet this morning (don't know how to embed them) that Duane was considering Texas A&M, Arkansas, Nevada, Georgia Tech, Georgia and Virginia.

So it would seem he is considering all high major with the one exception being Nevada, but some may consider that high-major.  Heavy on SEC and ACC schools and noting remotely close to his son.

LOL dude's sick of the winter, totally feel him

I doubt it, we don't have Bo Ryan coaching us.

[TSmith34, Inc.]

Wow, not really the level of schools I expected. I just assumed he'd go a level lower for more PT. Virginia would be interesting with all the guys they've lost.

Does Duane have the same opinion of his abilities as his dad has of his (Duane's) abilities?

This is a real nice group of schools for Duane.  He is clearly valued by quality coaches. I think if he is healthy he could have a break out season.

Everyone has a breakout season in the mind of MUFNY.

Regardless, he'll be breaking out of Wojo's mind games.

Him and JjJ both #freebird

All those schools project needs at PG next season, so makes total sense for Duane. Should get quality minutes in a visible program at a position he needs to develop at for him to have a decent pro career. Good for Duane.

Would love to see him at Virginia, good basketball school. I would also want to see him at Georgia to see him play 1 more time in the BC

I hope everything gets done in Duane's life that he sets forth to help all of us get done in our lives what he helped us with.

+1...   I think

And with that being said, go Marquette, beat Pittsburgh.

I am one was never in love with Duane.  Duane came out the same time as Koenig, he was an explosive player in high school.  Shot the 3 with a good percentage,
over 50% percent.  Lost his explosion, saw it once last year with that dunk that was common in high school.  Wants to play point, one year point guard that has
not played point much.  A learning experience.  Dwight Buycks tried that, not easy.  Good luck to him but at best an average player that did not take the next step
in college.  Hope he can, but playing the small forward for MU, was being played out of position by Wojo.  Rather see Anim or Cain for at least rebounding purposes
and getting taller as the pigmy guards need some height upfront.

Yea if only Buycks would have had some success at point...

Duane's progress or lack thereof at MU was more on Wojo than on Duane.

Ners hijack?

So how did JJJ improve but Duane didn't?

No. Nagging injury.

Disagree.

Watch this, and tell me Duane looked anywhere near that explosive since his RS freshman year.

Injuries really stole his explosiveness.  Kid is a warrior though, and I hope he finds tremendous success next year.

I don't think Marquette would be able to block him even if they wanted to since he's a grad transfer.

I think they under 14.5.2.2.10 (as referenced by 14.6.1), MU could object, but a hearing could then be requested by Swaggy Du.

Nonetheless, I'd find that extremely unlikely. I think he's free to go anywhere he'd like, ex-BEast schools.
