James Bouknight may not have had many defining moments in his brief career at UConn. Neither did Andre Drummond.

He gone, folks. As he should be.

His 40 point game against Creighton legitimately put him on the NBA radar. He is projected to be a lottery pick. That's All Folks!!!

Kevin Willard has reeled in American grad transfer Jamir Harris and his brother four-star junior Jaquan Harris, they told @Stockrisers. They both recently virtually met with the staff and now both are Pirates.

Brooklyn's James Bouknight is legit; I see him getting it done in the NBA (which I don't really follow anymore except to watch college players I liked).

 
 
I think Quinerly on Alabama is close  to equal of Boutnight . He had 1 year flop at Nova but , was highly recruited and landed well at Alabama .

Quinerly is a good example of why Jay Wright seems to avoid 5 star players. They don't want to develop and want to start immediately. I remember following Quinerly at Nova in his one season there, and he never appeared fully engaged, because he wasn't getting big minutes immediately. 
 
Shavar Reynolds, whose storybook rise at Seton Hall was unprecedented in these parts, will take his graduate year elsewhere. He's entering the portal:  app.com/story/sports/c…
 
Wow, Shavar is a very good player and a real surprise he’s leaving.  I’m gonna guess that Hall fans were not expecting that.
 
Xavier getting cleaned out like many teams in this free pass w no sitting out , Covid extra yr environment 

“Xavier forward Jason Carter has entered the transfer portal”
 
Oops!

Georgetown C Qudus Wahab (SO) has entered the transfer portal. verbalcommits.com/players/qudus-…
 
Wow on Wahab.  Ewing turned him from nothing into something - he would be nuts to leave there.  Nobody else is running their offense through the post the way Georgetown is. 

Unless of course he already has his landing spot set at someplace like Kentucky...
 
Wow the Wahab news is shocking!!! 2 years in a row Ewing loses stars. Worked out pretty well for them this year though

Extremely shocked about this one.  I know Ewing can be a hard ass on his players, but it's generally tough love.  I'm thinking someone in Wahab's camp probably got into his ear.  
 
Wonder if Mutumbo's son coming in as a 4*, would likely mean less playing time or focus.

Coaches will all need to adapt to a style where you only play six guys a game because any player worth anything (and some that are not) are not willing to sit unless they can't breathe or they are in foul trouble.  That is a major adjustment for CMA who has always valued depth. 

Good for the kids I guess.
