Or small forward to RJ & Scott's PF.I see no reason he can't play power forward.
Transfer Portal Mania
- Thread starter paultzman
- Start date
If Watkins and Brazile don’t materialize, I would take back Taylor in a heartbeat.
All for runnin it back with GT....
He knows the system, plays terrific defense and he played some very crucial minutes during the stretch run. He has no fear.
Like in the show Let’s Make a Deal most contestants take the unknown Door #2. That’s the obviously risky move. GT is Door #1. We know what we are getting. We will find out soon enough. I don’t know what Coach Rick and GT are both thinking. I hope they closed out on good terms.
Well not sure how he will be allowed to transfer without penalty.
A couple of things:
1)The Portal Window is obviously closed and
2)GCU announced his signing on 5/28. So he presumably left the Portal at that point. Which means if he wants to transfer he needs to re-enter. But again the Window is closed.

Maybe he was only a verbal commit and never signed.Well not sure how he will be allowed to transfer without penalty.

Again GCU formely announced his signing. That is why I linked the story on the GCU page which includes quotes from Bryce Drew. You can't publicly comment on a recruit let alone post it to your school website without the player signing scholarship papers.

Oh geez no. We have moved on. We are getting studs in here. Taylor was a disappointment last year. There is a reason we recruited right over him.
Why would this be any different than Ledlum last year? He entered the portal picked a school and probably has not started taking any classes (summer school). So he gets released from his LOI and picks another school. As long as he hasn’t started taking classes there, he is not transferring from GCU. So he would not need to re-enter the portal and would still be eligible to play at whatever school he eventually transfer to and starts taking classes. At least that’s how I see it.
I do not see him as being an option to return here as I stated when this topic came up before. His playing time would not increase so if that was why he left, why would he return?
Weird how?
I believe most fans would disagree with you. I think Taylor's biggest problem was Pitino continually reshuffling the deck in terms of player rotations as he searched for a winning strategy. It's a challenge for a player to play well, get a few starts, and after a non productive game find himself deep on the bench.
Many fans here wanted Luis out of town ASAP until his late surge helped a 6 game winning streak which limited Taylor's minutes. Not coincidentally, Luis' shin splints were giving him less trouble and Pitino came up with a limited but regular practice regimen for him.
I'd have been very happy had Taylor stayed, and hope he lands well and has a bang up season. We only saw the best of him in spurts.
Good kid also. Does not deserve to be trashed.
No it is not enrolling. It is signing.
Ledlum was a grad transfer there was no deadline last year for Grad Transfers.
That is why it was a huge deal when the NCAA changed the cutoff to include grad transfers this year.
That does not make any sense anyway.
You are telling me that when a player signs scholarship paperwork and the school and coach announce his signing the player is still in the Portal?
So depending on when they enroll for Summer School Aaron Scot, Smith, Richmond etc could still be in the Portal?
No that is not how it works.
A school does not have a kid sign scholarship paperwork but at the same time he stays in the Portal. Uh no.
Because when you are in the Portal you are free to contact any school. When you sign paperwork you cannot do that.
How can you be both? In the Portal and simultaneously not be able to be in contact with other schools. That is the whole point of the Portal.
Ledlum was a Grad Transfer. Previous years Grad Transfers could enter Portal any time.
They were not subject to the Windows.
Remember Max Shulga announced on May 3 he was transferring from VCU to Villanova.
www.vuhoops.com
But then on May 23 he renegs on that verbal commitment and announces he is returning to VCU. How it was after the May 1 deadline.
collegesportswire.usatoday.com
Because he never signed with Nova and therefore never left the Portal.
Look at Villanova's official website. They announce Perkins on May 3, Brickus on May 11 and their latest transfer Boakye on May 30 officially.
Notice how they never have a story about Felgus after he committed on May 3. What does that mean? It means he never signed with Nova.

Remember Riley Kugel transfer from Florida. Committed to Kansas for weeks.
Then on May 8 it was announced he was de-committing from Kansas and opening up. He would land at Miss St.
But notice he never signed scholarship paperwork with Kansas. Zags uses term NLI but NLI is incorrect, NLI is for high school/prep kids.
Transfers simply sign grant-in-aid/scholarship paperwork from the school.
Kugel never signed a National Letter of Intent to Kansas, and since his name was in the portal before it closed on May 1, he will still be eligible to transfer elsewhere and play.

I thought I remember Bill Self talking about Kugel after he committed but I could be wrong
