Transfer portal

[muguru]

Freeman-Liberty is a fantastic player and his advanced stats back it up. For reference, T-rank has him listed as the second best remaining available transfer, ahead of the likes of Marcus Santos-Silva that people were salivating over here. He would likely transform our team as much, if not more than Carton (though Carton obviously has the pedigree and power conference background).

Immediately eligible Freeman-Libety and Carton backcourt next year would be a hell of a reload after losing Sacar and Markus.

Bingo! Wojo pulls this one off, and with the addition of Carton, he deserves a statue on campus, it would be THAT good.

I'd like to see the state of that statue as time goes by.

He needs to be close to home so that narrows the field significantly(although he was already close to home at Valpo)...would say puts MU firmly in the mix, assuming they will inquire. Would be shocking to me if he stayed at a mid major...like Loyola, Bradley..DePaul

To this day I've never had to make a decision this impactful In my life... I love Valpo, they've been a huge part of making me the man I am becoming today... I have somethings going on that requires me to home close to my grandmother... Please respect me & my family privacy

When do you learn that what recruits say they want/need/prefer isn't gospel?

Um ... Wisconsin?

Really?? No crap sherlock..but I will walk you through this...now imagine if you will, the kid has intentions on playing this year and not having to sit out..Now also imagine the kid goes on social media and makes a post about needing to be closer to home(again, he can't be much closer than Valpo to begin with), so now let's imagine after the kid publicly says something like that on social media...he commits to...oh I don't know..let's say Arkansas. How do you think the NCAA is going to look at that when it comes time to approve his waiver??

Or...maybe the kid really wants to play closer to home? I wouldn't read too much into it man. Marquette has reached out - let's see where the chips fall.

Exactly my point, maybe he does really want to play closer to home. Although, being fair, you can't be much closer to home than he was at Valpo..DePaul I suppose, but why the hell would he want to play there?? I guess the $$ is pretty good there.

[Juan Anderson's Mixtape]

I like Freeman-Liberty more than Perez.  Better efficiency numbers in a better conference.  I'd feel good landing him.

[MU82]

What? Without pages of speculation? You must be new here!

Eye sey wee erect Woj's statue at da entrance of da Tommy and Joanie Memorial Soccer Megaplex, hey?

I get that. I honestly do.

But just like the other recruit who wanted to play faster, then chose a program that wasn't any faster. This one might say closer to home, then not actually end up there for whatever reason.

Unless Grandma lives north of Kenosha, or no other school closer to her has an opening, he sits if he comes to MU under current rules. Valpo is an hour from Chicago. 

Northwestern and DePaul are the most realistic high major options if he wants a waiver.

FWIW coach Hsu started following JFL a couple days before he entered his name into the draft... It's almost like DePaul had a plan in place for this to happen. They reposted his post on both Instagram and Twitter. Things look good here.

Valparaiso transfer Javon Freeman-Liberty tells ESPN he has heard from Oregon, Arkansas, Marquette, BYU and DePaul since entering the transfer portal this morning.

First-team All-MVC guard averaged 19.0 points, 6.1 rebounds and 3.2 assists

Told y'all he was going to transfer 

Freeman definitely not a shooter, 100% a slashing guard, but one of the best finishers I've ever seen from a PG. Handles the ball really well.

Kind of got put on the back burner because he was apart of a loaded class in Illinois with THT and Ayo Dosunmu. Always liked him better than Ayo.

[TAMU, Knower of Ball]

Elijah Weaver is transferring from USC. Sit 1, play 2, former top 50 recruit. His offensive stats are scary bad but he has great size for the PG position and was known as a very good defender on a very good defensive team (USC was #18 defense per KenPom). Wouldn't be my top choice but we could do worse. Doubt we get involved but who knows, maybe he was inspired by the beatdown we gave them in Orlando and wants to join up.

Sounds like Olivier Sarr, the big from Wake Forest will be putting his name in the transfer portal...now that's a guy that anyone that has an open scholarship(and probably some that don't), will go after. heck Kentucky fans have been tweeting at him since manning got fired.

Posted 10 double-doubles last year. Really impressive advanced numbers. Wonder if he will be immediately eligible, would be one of the best players to hit the portal this year.

USC's Elijah Weaver enters transfer portal. Definitely worth an inquiry. Weaver was a four-star point guard in USC's recruiting class of 2018. At that time he ranked 45th nationally In the 247Sports composite.

[MU82]

I couldn't help but laugh.

[JakeBarnes]

If we ever do get to cannonizing Wojo, I would certainly hope it involves a recreation of the whiteboard incident.

uhhhhh yeah, he'd be a big upgrade over Jayce (who I liked)

Look Nads, Woj's weenie is covered up......or missing, hey?

No offense but do you ever read the thread before posting?
