Transfer Portal

I’m a Fairfield alum. Loved my time there. Wish the team there was good when I was in school. New arena on campus is gorgeous.

Fairfield is a great school for him. My sister-in-law graduated from there and a nephew is waiting to hear if a track scholarship opens up.

How does Michigan allow it to get that far to begin with? I mean he has been committed for more than a month and you have presumably had his transcripts for that long how in the world do you NOW decide you are not going to admit him?

Second time its happen in two years. Last year it was Terrence Shannon who wound up at conference rival Illinois.

Portal kids might stop bothering trying to go there.

Not sure which end it came from, but I'd also be super pissed that it leaked that my academics were not up to snuff.

That's right. But again you presumably are running these kids thru your admission dept already before they even verbal.

Seriously. Spare everyone embarrassment and only take silent verbals from now on.

I thought before an "official" offer can come from the school the student had to be run through admissions first? At least that was my understanding for HS kids.

Good for him! Have a couple of family members who went to Fairfield and loved it there.

Solid choice, new arena. I’m biased, had two graduate from Fairfield

Yes it’s known as a very good school. Of course, they clearly got caught. No show credit is as bad as it gets. That’s pretty lazy cheating. Who knows if that has been shored up. They were never punished. They weren’t punished because, wait for it…no show classes broke no rules. Gotta love the N.C.A.A.

We laughed about this little scandal when it happened. If this were SJU lets say I am or was not confident of a similar shall we say outcome.

That no-show class scandal at UNC went all the way back to St. Dean, so of course the NCAA was going to sweep it under the rug...

Uh oh . Cleveland State needs to get the Death Penalty again . Even though it’s UNC and Michigan it doesn’t matter !

Good luck to Kyle as he joins an irrelevant, middling ACC program.

Pretty sure he got assurances of what was probably his most pressing need after the last two years, minutes.

If Judah Mintz stays in the draft, Cuse will only have three “true” guards including Cuffe and all are new transfers (Starling from ND and Westry from Auburn) so the minutes are definitely there.

My point was not that Kyle won't get minutes; I'm sure he will. My point was that Syracuse as a program has become irrelevant.
