After the Will McNair pickup, I was holding out hope English didn't know what he was doing bringing in a bad backup big and a bunch of his own George Mason guys.

But Breed transferring out is smart. More minutes for Pierre, Dual, Carter as the lead guard.

Also one less guy on the team accused of pointing a gun at his girlfriend. Oftentimes a plus

Eh, the last three coaches who recruited him have been fired. The last two well outside of the normal cycle. Not saying I feel bad for the guy, but its all understandable.

His potential next coach should have reason to tread carefully here!!   ;)

My favorite Jose Perez MU moment - he finally plays a little at end of the season and then does not travel to BE tourney (at a time they actually needed him)


Before any says that did not happen, here is a 247 account of it:

He only played 10 games at Marquette, popping up briefly in the first two games of the 2020-21 season and then not playing in the next 16. He played in the last eight games of the regular season but didn't accompany the team to the Big East tournament. The team cited personal reasons.

Yeah, he had a pretty bad case of Covid, and was completely out of shape when he returned.

COVID was the reason he missed 16 games, then played 8 games before not making the trip to NYC (ironically, where he is from)...

He was going to sit out a year.   Then a whole bunch of injuries happened.  Then he became first big off the bench.  Then he got COVID.

I have no idea. He had Covid causing him to be out of shape when he returned. His mom had cancer. Maybe he just didn't want to play. No biggie for me really.

So when someone "leaves the team for personal reasons" it is cause he caught COVID?   hmm...

In this case.  Going back and looking at the discussion, it appears he was planning to sit.  When the extra COVID year was granted, he applied for a waiver around November 20.    He did not play much initially.   The consensus was he wasn't ready/out of shape.    He started playing when the injuries mounted.    Then he abruptly stopped.   Rumor was COVID.

Definitely was out of shape, though one Scooper insisted it only looked that way because he was wearing body armor.

Which was proven true.  One Scooper called him fat.  Which he never was.  Being fat and being out of shape aren't always the same thing (especially in the context of talking division one athletics).

Let’s cut the kid some slack - he had to endure the final season of the Wojo era, so he’s already suffered enough.  👀

One good transfer is back in the portal. Barnes over recruiting with the ridiculous NIL money that school has.

Would take him in a heartbeat.

Too bad for Madison that he wouldn't be able to get into their school.

Looks like he visited Indiana and St. John’s prior to choosing Tennessee and is a native of Brooklyn. I don’t think St. John’s has any openings, so wonder if he’d be up for joining another Big East school that will play in NYC a few times.

I’m not certain, but I think he’s a grad transfer so his late entry into the portal wouldn’t mean he has to sit. Or if him entering earlier before choosing Tennessee qualifies.

Dude got his free trip to Spain and bounced. Don't want him because he's an aircraft carrier, but it hurts PC's frontcourt depth.
