Re: Men's Basketball Transfer Carousel and Portal - 2024-25

Remains to be seen if it was an upgrade or downgrade but it was clear that at least 1 was going to go portaling from current back court after adding 2. My preference would have been Ways, but my #2 would be Luis. Too much of a tweener and we have better options at the 2 and 3 spot. I think Luis lea...

It is hard not to like Bassy’s attitude, desire to play for us -his hustle, his improvement, his ability to run through a wall for his team and the intangibles that he brings to the team. That being said, my question is where does he stand compared to the other A10 guards that we compete against. H...

Also, this is not a knock on Hammond as I was excited to see him play here and develop, but since when did a true freshman PG lead a team to a title of some sorts? And yes, in high school games Hammond was pressuring the ball very well. Doesn’t mean he’d be effectively doing that from day 1 in a gu...
