Transfer Portal Mania

[L J S A]

Zach Freemantle?

He might be locked into Xavier at this point because his RS year is his first year of grad school. Not sure how easy that is to finish up at a new school next season, but some strange things are going to happen in the portal.

Sub in Allette for Alleyne?

The circumstances around his dismissal will of course be investigated.

Zed key playing some great D on Edey in these closing minutes

But with just 1 rebound and 1 assist in 20-plus mintues.

Think Caleb Love couldn't get into Michigan due to grade/class issue transferring

He wasn’t academically ineligible though. Michigan made the decision based on the fact the academic administration decided Love’s
grades did not meet their academic
standards (even if they allow some leeway for athletes). It doesn’t mean that he was academically ineligible and he wasn’t.

I only caught the last five minutes but he denied a couple of entry passes, deflected a pass and did other small things in the paint.

It was painfully obvious he was overmatched by Edey but who isn’t

Trilly also said he wouldn't be going to Michigan way before news broke, which was kind of messed up. Someone definitely leaked info that I would have thought would be illegal to leak.

Michigan admissions can be dicey -- they were messing with a Stanford transfer for a while.

 

[MugCostanza]

Terrence Shannon Jr was also set to go to Michigan a couple years ago but got nixed by the admissions office there too. Juwan snarkily mentioned it in the postgame after they played them the other day

 

[dk423]

Think any speculation for portal players will have to be based on high level athleticism if that wasn’t obvious to begin with.

Booker, Jackson, come on down

 

[RedStormNC]

Luis is a high level athlete.

Give me gritty basketball players who can shoot and work as team, not athletes.

[L J S A]

He's not lying, but telling the truth helps nothing. At some point he needs to treat all questions like it's a woman asking "Do I look fat in this?"

 

[Knight]

Trying to pass the Buck?

 

[isham]

Never heard a Coach critics players for lack of skills. Maybe we need to evaluate the effectiveness of the staff. This is our offense. 5 guys passing the ball around until Jenkins can get in the lane and than the offense begins. No one moves without the ball.

 

[Knight]

These players have some skills, the staff failed to take advantage of them.

I took the $6 plunge and joined the Trilly discord. I'm not going to be a total POS and share everything on there. But two things worth mentioning are:
1) Would be shocked if Holmes doesn't go pro
2) Potentially the same person alluded to earlier...but a certain South Shore alum/lead guard on a team in NJ has had "rumblings" about the portal. No specific teams mentioned.

 

[dk423]

Oh, and a Providence fan was nice enough to give me genuine sympathy. Which somehow made me even madder today. lol

Heard Kadary’s name a few times for portal, but who knows

Would think SHU's lack of NIL is the reason for this

 

[bucketshardy]

does anyone have an idea of the NIL range this current roster cost? 1.5-2mm? 2-2.5mm?.... just want a frame of reference...

 

[GardenCity62]

I have no idea what the NIL amounts are but I think it is safe to say Rick feels he overpaid.
