2024 Transfer Portal

[wadesworld]

OK. Whatever hill you want to die on.
Can we assume these reports of Marquette reaching out to Avila, Saran and Hugley are false?

Haha right?

"They're going to make a documentary on how Shaka doesn't take transfers." (He has taken plenty.)

"I got a great source as close to the program as possible says we might land Robbie Avila as a transfer!"

No Shaka has said it is irresponsible to not check in, but that he won't recruit over his guys. Saran likely wouldn't be a starter this year so he makes sense and until Shaka actually adds a portal starter I'll assume it won't happen.

[MUDPT]

So did Marquette.

Tyler Kolek.
Jones is the only transfer Purdue has taken since 2019.

They took David Jenkins in 2022. And Jahaad Proctor in 2019.

[WeAreMarquette96]

Have heard from someone I trust close to the program there is mutual interest with Rob Avila.

They're wrong. He's going to Saint Louis and nowhere else. And, entered the portal with a do not contact designation.

[DoctorV]

How do you know?

[WeAreMarquette96]

Jenkins  wasn't on the 247 transfer list for some reason, but you're right. Maybe because he was a grad transfer?
Proctor ws 2019, and I wrote "since 2019," so ...

Anyhow, two transfers in four season isn't exactly hammering the portal. It's low even
for pre-portal/pre-NIL era.

Talk about taking it out of context. Lmao.

[wadesworld]

What's out of context here? Are those not two things you claimed, a couple of hours apart?

[GoldenEagles03]

Shaka has said many times that he isn't taking transfers over the top of guys he already has. No one is saying the never used the transfer portal. You have to to start a program over. Now that the program is established his ideal way of building is through Freshman.

I also never made the claim about Avila lmao. You just are trying to create something that isn't there.

[forgetful]

They're wrong. He's going to Saint Louis and nowhere else. And, entered the portal with a do not contact designation.

All that means is that schools can't contact him unless he initiates contact. It means he has his own list of schools he is considering.

Trilly is wrong a lot.

Who knows what is the case here.

[TAMU, Knower of Ball]

Id get a new source

[Viper]

They were a title contender the last two years

yeah, ok. I guess I missed those stellar tourney runs.

[The Sultan]

yeah, ok. I guess I missed those stellar tourney runs.

I guess you need to look up the definition of "contender."

[tower912]

56-17 is the most wins in consecutive seasons in school history.  Big East regular season and tourney champs, followed by getting upset in the sweet 16.   Contenders.

[Uncle Rico]

yeah, ok. I guess I missed those stellar tourney runs.

You said contender.  They were. 

[Its DJOver]

Haha right?

It's kinda what he does, make some wild declaration that is easily proved false, then move the goalposts enough that if you really squint he might not be completely wrong.  Its just like Oso and his mid range jumpers.

[The Sultan]

Guys, this sounds like its going to be an awful documentary.

[GoldenEagles03]

Uh...you didn't ask a question.

Hahaha move the goalposts? You people are idiots.

Wade's claimed that I said Shaka doesn't take transfers. Wrong. I said he doesn't take transfers over the top of his guys.

Wade's then claimed I said I know someone who said Robbie Avila and Marquette have mutual interest. He literally just made that up because I never said that.

He never said that you said it.

He said that after making your wild claim. That it was then noted regarding Avila by posters.

For the record tho, the Avila thing isn't true at all

Everything about what he said is just completely wrong. Instead of actually reading what I say...he frames it in his mind how he wants it to be read.

I never said Marquette will never take transfers. I've simply restated what Shaka has said that they won't take a transfer over someone they already have available.

I also never made the Avila claim which he clearly insinuated.
