MU one of many schools to reach out to Oklahoma transfer John Hugley

[mugrad_89]

Amoroso transferred to San Diego St. and Blankston to UNLV, aina?

I still wish Blankston had been around for the 2003 Final Four.

Here is the aircraft carrier - first legit D1 guy I have seen MU linked to:

https://twitter.com/ThePortalReport/status/1775339491688862072?t=3SOHuuenpENsNr52l89aaw&s=19

He's listed at 6 10 and 275lb on 24/7 sports.

[MU82]

Here's the MU transfers out for past 16 years.

15 out of 16 years, to include the last 11 in a row, a player has transferred out.

What are the odds this year?  A memory list......

22-23. Itegere, Ellis, Wrightsil
21-22  Elliott
20-21. Theo, Torrence, Akanno, Cain, Perez, Garcia
19-20. Bailey
18-19. Sam, Joey
17-18  Harry Froling
16-17. D. Wilson, Cheatham
15-16  Cohen, Carter, W. Ellenson
14-15. Steve Taylor
13-14. Dawson, Burton, Mayo
12-13. Jamal Ferguson
11-12. None
10-11. E. Williams, Jamail Jones
09-10. Maymon, Mbao
08-09. Hazel
07-08. Christopher, Mbakwe

Pretty sure Bailey turned pro, not a transfer.

Correct. Froling also didnt transfer, he went overseas.

[Biggie Clausen]

I still wish Blankston had been around for the 2003 Final Four.

Blankson instead of Townsend in that starting lineup?  Yeah, that would've been great.  Feel like we still get trounced by Kansas, though.

Dameon Mason was another guy who transferred, I think he went to LSU.  I remember Homer calling him "ish" as in "Wade-ish".  That was a stretch, to say the least.

[Nukem2]

He went home to Australia.

What I notice about this list is the real lack of guys that transferred out and had a major impact elsewhere.  Most of them were transfers down.

Mbakwe had a good career at Minnesota, Burton did too (but there was family stuff there, so I don't blame him), and then there's the Hausers.   Other than that, our transfers out have been a big nothing-burger.

Maymon had a nice run at Tennessee, and Christopherson averaged double figures for two seasons at Iowa State.

Once again, Shaka and the staff have a very good idea about what the roster is going to look like going into next season, as well as where the gaps might be to fill.  Whether it is this young man, another one or even staying pat, I wholeheartedly trust them making the right decision. 

That being said, a 6'10, 275 lb. post certainly looks like it is filling a void.

Jamal Cain was amazing at Oakland.  Put up the kinds of numbers we hoped he could get to here.

[The Sultan]

Almost entirely because his usage increased. He was pretty much the same guy otherwise.

[MU82]

Correct. Froling also didnt transfer, he went overseas.

So ... not 1 every year for 11 straight years.

[lawdog77]

I think we are way below the average in transfers TBH

Come on, give it up, so I made an error. I am just trying to help out here and you are being your usual self by complaining about other posters.  I'll let you all be from now on in updates.

Apparently Storr asked for 1 mil from Kansas and turned down their offer of 750k

Seems a little sus, given some of the numbers that have been reported for far better and well-known players.

[pbiflyer]

Why are we not talking to Bronny??????? It will be a complete failure if we don't get him.

signed - the guy who doesn't put obviously sarcastic quotes in teal.

I had heard he wanted 900k when he entered the portal.......if somebody is stupid enough to pay him that's on them......he isn't that good......high volume not efficient....bad defense.........yippee.

[wadesworld]

Madison fans would never throw around fake numbers to make themselves look better.

[Its DJOver]

They would, but Storr has also made it pretty clear that he doesn't really care who the highest bidder is, he's just trying to max his $.  I don't think he'll hit 7 figures, but asking for that (especially from Kansas) is not all that crazy of a starting point.

Maybe, we'll see.  But if he has always been looking for the bag, I find it hard to believe Madison was the biggest bag he could've got last year.  I'm just always careful about taking what some Twitter users are throwing around as numbers a guy is getting or asking for as gospel.

This.  He was overrated on scoop.  God bless whoever pays him and god bless himself for chasing bag
