This is the classic debate... is it better to be a small fish in a big pond or a big fish in a small pond? Getting the chance to play for Duke or Kentucky or Kansas is a tremendous honor, but you do run the risk of getting lost or being recruited over. That's just the way it is and I'm surprised more HS players aren't aware of that. Personally (and this is just me), if I was a great recruit, I'd never sign on at one of those schools. I'd want to go somewhere where I knew I'd get playing time.

Wow. Amazing get for Creighton. Joseph always had talent but was in Boheims dog house and never got out. He was asked to basically run the offense as a true freshmen and didn't do it up to Jim B's standards and never saw the floor again
The liberalization of transfer eligibility by the NCAA has benefitted athletes who are willing to drop down in competition to get more playing time but also hurts the player on the team these players are transferring to who felt their opportunity to play was finally coming.
Iona must have had two backcourt players who served as backups this past year thinking they would start next season. Iona now brings in two guards from higher profile leagues with immediate eligibility who will no doubt be getting the major minutes next season leaving this past season's backups right back where they were this past season. Do they transfer or stay hoping they get a chance next year to start or should they realize Cluess will obviously try to recruit two different players next year with immediate eligibility.
College transferring has really became a game of musical chairs. I think the number of transfers is around twenty per cent and rising.

Both big men. Cooley thinking Bentil is gone? Maybe reading too much into it perhaps, because PC needs more big men with or without Ben next year

Good to hear we are getting a visitor this weekend. Beginning to get anxious with other BE schools getting transfers already signed or already having scheduled visits
