Transfer Portal

From

what I see, Curbello would be a bad fit anywhere. I wouldn’t put that on Illinois players in general.
Good point ! It’s just that Curbelo has put a taint , legit or not , on having a back court of 2 Illini guards . I know nothing about Epps but , we all know Curbelo .
 
A conspiracy theorist might say these stories are getting leaked and players asked to leave to win Anderson arbitration.
You should write movie scripts Larry, maybe Twilight Zone-esque?
You do have the 'Wright' name for it, lol.
 
This is what I meant. For some the door is still slightly open.

How would that impact arbitration? If the kids were good and redeemable then it would strengthen the argument that Anderson was the problem, no?
I am not a conspiracy theorist.
But no, all these thing about culture and off court stuff particularly the Wusu thing.

Wusu is one of they guys we know was suspended for a game due to a violation of team rules.
 
Lots of smoke that Justin Moore may be hitting the portal and that two ACC schools are currently locked in a bidding war for him
 
I think Timberlake has committed to UNC.

Paxson Wojcik, another guard but from Brown, committed to UNC. It has been reported that Timberlake, who was on the UNC campus yesterday, has committed their also.

 
Really sorry to see Posh and Wusu go; I wish they could have finished their senior year here. And with Storr and King leaving too, we have no backcourt, except for Curbelo. Maybe CRP will use Curbelo as a high energy 6th man like his freshman year at Illinois.
Who’s to say one or more portal kids will or will not be back in red? Need to stay open minded during this time of significant St John’s basketball change - much of which we fans clamored for!!!
 
The Bottom line of all this is only a few , if any posters here really knew what went on in the CMA locker room or Classroom. Pitino stated there were problems in both Areas . And , why he only mentioned Soriano and Traore as Players he choose to return . We don’t know who among the remaining players he wanted to keep snd what he expected from them . It just seems to me , that Pitino felt the talent level was not able to quickly compete for a BE Title and ultimately a NCAA Championship . He’s got his hooks into a number of top tier Portal players and you can bet he will land more than a few . At least , we now know we have a good chance to become a Winning Program again . Rick isn’t fooling around . He’s on a limited Clock and knows it .
Well written. Thank you, thank you, thank you!!!
