Re: Men's Basketball Transfer Carousel and Portal - 2024-25
Conwell has a visit with NC State. Kent and Larry visiting Texas. Kind of expected that, SLU might get Swope but I’m pretty sure at least 3 of those guys go P5. Yes, I did also, but if Schertz can still bring in Avila and Swope not bad. Plus returning Gibby, Hargrove, and Hughes, they can be compet...

Re: Men's Basketball Transfer Carousel and Portal - 2024-25
Two players should not be on our team next year: Wright and Traore. They are low-major players. However, I'm completely confused about why people wouldn't get excited about Manyawu. This reminds me of the people who were negative about Green when he also put up decent numbers in the conference USA....

What was fascinating was how good UConn guards were on both defense and offense.

Purdue guards did not measure up UConn's and they scored a combined 17 points. That does...
