2017 Recruiting

I wouldn't have any heartburn if Temara and Relvao left in addition to Murrell, Dixon, and Abram.

I get it, Coach P needed some bodies to plug onto the roster when he took over knowing they weren't A10 caliber players.

Agree with this, they were patch work guys brought in to fill the roster late in the recruiting season. We all knew some would transfer by now.

I liked Abram - but it's definitely in his best interest to leave to play elsewhere. You only get four years to do this in your life, and he's down to two. Why sit on a bench when he would definitely start at a D1 school in a lower conference.

I don't mean to be a d!ck, but is it too much to ask that we don't say guys on our team should transfer before we know whether they are leaving or not?

Whether or not it ultimately proves to be true, I'm not sure how it helps for our fans to say our guys aren't good enough to play here.

We have enough challenges without shooting ourselves in the nuts.

This isn't a little league, participation trophy team, it's a very competitive DI program. Also, it's a message board, we can speculate and criticize all we want.

Have you ever had a real job where you need to produce results to continue your job? Ever get a job review you disagree with? If you actually do your work and do what's asked of you at the level of where you are performing (A10), no one should question whether or not you deserve a raise or a promotion or spread rumors of who may or may not leave for another job based on merit. If you don't cut it at a job, do you think your boss would keep you there for 4 full years, or recommend you get another job or fire you after a year or 2? BFD, the kids who leave will have to pony up and pay for 2 year of their own education at the worst. I know kids that are upwards $250k in school debt and can't play sports. These kids are on a free ride, call me unsympathetic, not a d!ck.

Temara would be an ok CAA level player at a school like Northeastern, but not a school like GMU. Dixon would be great at William and Mary. Murrell could get minutes at UNCW.
EH UNCW about on our level or a bit above last year.... Murrell not getting a roster spot there lol. Danny Dixon couldn't start for NVCC if they had a basketball team.

I love the people that think the players read this garbage

Didn't we just have a lovefest with Jalen's family on here about 2 weeks ago? Haven't several other player family members posted on here? Didn't Jollay have a restraining order from Holloway's mom? Of course they read these boards. It's a message board dedicated to them and their performance.

I wonder if we have 3 or more openings whether we will fill them all or try to balance our classes since we'll be a roster with no seniors next year... at least for now.

No need to fill the roster with players who have no shot of seeing the court. I would rather have an open scholarship then just fill the roster.

We have interest from some really good guards in the 2018 class. I wouldn't mind holding out for one of them.

Especially if we land a transfer big who can play right away next year.

News of transfers from around the A-10 is starting to spread. Christian Sengfelder from Fordham, Kevin Marfo from GW, Zeke Moore from SLU to name a few. I imagine we will know soon enough who is leaving and won't have to keep speculating.

Along those lines, does anyone know how the A-10 handles restricting transfers within the conference? Is it a conference rule or left up to the individual schools to grant permission?

Wasn't Sengfelder one of Fordham's better players?

Maybe I love conspiracys to much. But has anyone ever thought Louisville was talking to Hancock after we beat Villanova. And that's why Hancock didn't play in the Ohio state game.

I don't believe this. Have no reason to believe this. But I just like conspiracy theory's

No, I would say most of us realize that Pitino recruits blue chippers out of high school and rather than risking NCAA violations to steal a guy averaging just under 11 points from George Mason.

And that it was much more likely Larranaga leaving and his former Hargrave coach being hired to the staff in April that put Hancock on Louisville's radar rather than secret conversation in February/March.

But I also believe the moon landing happened, vaccinations don't cause autism and neither 9/11 or AIDS were planned by the CIA, so take that for what it's worth.
