2022 Transfer Portal Thread

asshole

9 minutes. A new record! Hahaha

It appears Murray State has 1 scholarship player left, maybe 2? They had 4 commitments, but I don't know what has happened to them.

I honestly can’t comment on much on here but I can tell you pretty much anyone that has a previous link to the staff in some way shape or form is most likely on the table. I know that’s super generic and if you want to call me an asshole, fine.

But that’s basically what I can say in general. Names continue to be fluid especially as more connected guys hit the portal.

Assholr.

The Georgetown basketball program is a dumpster fire under Ewing.
Ewing will go down in history as their program's best player and worst coach.
After luckily winning the Big East Championship, Ewing was secretly given a contract extension.
With a buyout of $12M it is unlikely that the University will find enough rich alumni to buy him out and pay for another coach.

Up until today no players had entered the transfer portal.
Today 3 entered, with likely more on the way.
I would hazard to say that none of them could help the GMU program after years of under- and mis- development under Ewing's System

Those 3 guys got pushed out and probably won’t be the last. Ewing knows he needs a massive talent infusion to be competitive next season and is going portaling to try and find it.

1000 players are now listed in the D1 transfer portal, according to Verbal Commits Twitter feed. Expect that to get to 1800 or so. There’s 358 D1 teams. That’s an average of 5 players per team. If you figure an average of 11 players per team, that’s 3938 D1 basketball players total. That’s damn near 50% of all players transferring. Think about that. Almost half of all the D1 players in the country are transferring. What the hell are they thinking and who the F** is giving them advice?

===
13 players per team will drop that rate from 50% to about 45%.
As KCE noted - i wonder what this does to graduation rate as most of those 1800 will not end up in the NBA.
And once we are thru the Covid extended eligibility period - the numbers come down a bit - hopefully.

Tyler Beard didn't do much of anything there, but was rated pretty highly coming out of H.S. and had several decent offers. Could be worth a look.

Carter Whitt of Wake Forrest has hit the transfer portal. Consensus Top 100 player nationally and Top 20 PG that averaged under 2 PPG this past season.

I really don't care about any of that though, I just want to see @CHRISTOPHER JAMES JOLLAY head explode if we offer a scholarship to a non-cisgender player. I mean...I assume, based on that haircut.

Back in the late 80's this was the hair metal ode to masculinity.

That hair in the green and gold. We need it. If he cuts it into a mullet I will personally make an NIL deal for him.

Heavy Dee Snyder vibes with that haircut.

 

[GreenLantern]

He also has that Brian Pillman look about him. Put some wrestling trunks on the guy and he'll have Vince McMahon offering a contract

Good stuff! Really like that we’re getting a meeting with Barthelemy at least, would be a significant upgrade at PG while Dinkins is developing.

 

[sleeperpick]

Super excited about the two PG prospects and Nnaji for sure.

Nice? Barthelemy zoom link? May help to have a public zoom...

 

[gmujim92]

Colorado transfer Keeshawn Barthelemy has heard from:

George Mason
Maryland
Clemson
Notre Dame
Arkansas
Arizona State
SMU
Nevada
+others

Go get him Kim and Nate!

 

[sleeperpick]

Fifth year senior that's started every game (53) his past two seasons and averaged 11 & 5. Maybe not an all-conference type, but feels like a plug & play while developing more depth.

I deleted because I want to be more positive about the players... I have watched him and Greg had 6 and 5 this year as a 9th man in a really bad league as well. I don't see him being much better than Henry is all.

I deleted my response because I support that stance. If you want to delete my quote, your call, that's cool.
