I honestly don’t think our transfers are anywhere near as bad as Pitt’s nor many others and many had figured we’d have 4 transfers for a long time now. Our “starters” that are leaving aren’t really heavy impact players with the exception of Moore who seems like a bit of a head-case.
Losing 20+ PPG to transfer is never a good thing. Moore and Cole are big losses no matter what people say, both heavily contributed to wins. Cole actually made a game winner. I know it's easy to say now that they weren't that big of a deal, but both had pretty good first years and got experience in the system, that's something that can't be replaced, because the replacements will have learning curves when they are learning the new system.
Now with that said, most other teams are experiencing the same thing, so hopefully it evens out. But, I don't know why people are thinking St. John's current transfer situation is just so much better than Pitt's, I guess it's hope that Justin will transfer here, so people have convinced themselves it's a lot worse over there, but in reality it's not that much different than what's going on here and everywhere else.
