Re: Men's Basketball Transfer Carousel and Portal - 2024-25
This is just a random thought and not related to any of the players mentioned in this thread...but it would be interesting to know how many players transfer because its their own decision and how many transfer because the coach essentially pushes them out. I know we'll never know that info for a who...

Re: '24 VA PG Ben Hammond (URI LOI ---> ??? )
He was top 50ish coming out of high school. I don't think we even attempt to recruit that high anymore. Lucky if we see a top 150. How often were we pulling in top 50ish players before the rule changes anyway? Once or twice every 20 years or so? It's not like we were regularly racking up top 50 or ...

But you're asking them to donate that kind of money every single year, or we don't get any good new players and lose the good players we already have. That appears to be parameters we’re working in these days, so yes. What’s the alternative? We aren’t going to field an elite team by holding a bake ...

Re: Men's Basketball Transfer Carousel and Portal - 2024-25
Bottom line, in my opinion, is we have zero D1 point guards on the roster right now so I think we need two (I don't consider Kortright a true PG even if he does come back). How we end up getting there is anyone's guess!

Because he sees his playing greatly reduced? For 2 years? We've got plenty of minutes available for 2 point guards. The starter plays about 30? Back up gets 10? Maybe. Or maybe 25 and 15.

Re: Assistants under Coach Miller 2022-23
I think we're reading way too much in to twitter followers. It can be a good indication of guys we might be recruiting but I wouldn't read much more in to it then that. When it comes to transfers, I would guess that Archie is the lead recruit in most cases, especially for the top targets.

If we can get a big man in here that can defend and rebound that's good enough for me. I don't think we need to have a big guy that is counted on to score much with our current roster.

It'll be interesting to see what direction Archie goes with this hire. I assume he has known Kenny will be leaving for a while now and has already begun the process if not even decided on the replacement already. Hopefully it's someone who can bring some players with them!
