Totally agree with this. Sad to see the kid go, was excited to have him. But he had a lot of guys ahead of him. Some kids just don’t want to battle for minutes.
I couldnt really see a way everybody could play without causing someone to want to leave. Let alone finding continuity with 5 bigs.

I liked what I saw but it’s ok. I really think that Cox can just find good players to play for him. The front court is just so stacked that there wasn’t immediate room for him.

We need a wing or a cg that can contribute. URI and Cox are due for a run.

I like The Twins and Harris to rotate between the forward and center spot. Not a big fan of the undersized Walker. He is a bad defender and really isn’t a power forward. They really could use another big, although I’m sure they will play Walker behind Harris. There is absolutely no room for Walker at the small forward spot with Toppin and Martin.

I think Walker is a pretty good rebounder for the time he is out there. I also like his shooting touch. Fewer turnovers would be good though.

Yeah I think Walker is good. Struggled a little late, but who didnt? He had a lot of good moments out there for us. Just a sophomore last year. He has loads of potential. He could be good for matchups. Sometimes the twins or JH may not be quick enough to guard guys like Antwan can.

Well, I think the hope is that you find a player that's "comfortable" or OK with the idea of being a development big man or project that won't play right away. I'm not really sure who that player is, because typically if you're 6'8"+ and can walk in a straight line, some program will give you minutes.

I'm sure the staff explained to Ousmane their plans. Something like, "we want you to be part of a team that will include you with the twins playing down low. Obviously you all won't be in the game at the same time, but you will all get your chances to earn minutes. In a couple of seasons after Harris and the twins graduate, you will have a great chance to be the man for your junior and senior season, along with Leggett and Wood feeding you." Obviously I'm speculating but if they laid out their plans to him and similar fashion, then he agreed and then changed his mind for some reason. We'll probably never know. I'm disappointed, but it is what it is.

The problem is there wasn’t really much PT for him until his Junior year, unless the transfer does not pass or the twins don’t get a waiver (which I think is a possibility even if the transfer rule does not change). The grad transfer is the back-up plan to the twins not being eligible. Right now we have Jermaine and Antwan who we know the floor of what we will get which is a 20 min per game player that is right now better than Abou, the twins who one is at least a 20 min player on the team and the other still is probably ahead of Abou. We also have toppin who will play the 3/4 role.

I think Abou was a really good prospect and will be a player somewhere. Maybe he goes somewhere and plays for a couple years and transfers here when the minutes are more available.

Doesn't show much faith in his own abilities. Throwing in the towel before even playing with/against them in practice. If the new rule happens he could have played out the year and then left if the writing was on the wall and not have to sit out.

Every school is constantly recruiting for each position. If you don't have competition now, you most likely will at some point...more so at the top programs. So might as well have faith in your abilities...BTW, I never blame a kid for going to the best program he can and giving it a try.

You have to admit every time a player leaves URI we talk about how they wouldn’t have played anyway, the mistake they made and how we will replace them easily or how they aren’t a big loss. We even did this with Martin. Now if we get a Murray we can say that we replaced Tyrese and it won’t be a big issue.

I don’t do that unless they really aren’t a loss. Martin still hurts. Murray will make it all better for me though.

I honestly don’t miss any of our transfers or dismissals other than CT and Martin.

Didn't Abou or someone close to him state that the commitment of the twins is the reason for the de-commit? So how is that not to be interpreted that he didn't want to accept the challenge and compete for playing time? He basically said it. Sometimes we speculate why someone made the decision they did, but this time we know. Doesn't competition make everyone better and by extension the team better?

I think this is the bigger loss, literally and figuratively, than Berry.

Big men are harder to evaluate than guards and wings. This kid had the potential to be a real banger in this league. I'm just glad he didn't go to St. Louis, St. Bonny, VCU or UMass, is about the only silver lining here.

But what are you going to do, we went with the Twins, and if you are smart, you keep the twins happy. That means, not being an idiot like the Maryland coach and make them dorm in separate rooms, just for the hey of it. And don't over recruit their position so that they slide down the bench, mid season.

Hopefully, we can score an "Ousmane" like player either next year or the year after, but as you know, they don't exactly grow on trees.

There playing time did not go down at mid-season. They were not getting a lot of playing time from the start; sure Turgeon does not know what he is doing!!! we took a chance on the twins, there are certainly questions about their non basketball actions and family.
Hope like hell it works out, and hope our coaching staff becomes as good as Maryland's.

We are going to need another big for next year in the worst way if the Mitchell twins are not eligible next year. Ousmane had the possibility of playing a lot this upcoming season or basically being better off being a redshirt. I can see it being a tough sell for the coaching staff but it could work out for a big who really wants to attend URI and is flexible.

The only type of big that fits this category is a "project" and if the twins aren't eligible a Project isn't going to help us next year. So this is a very difficult situation. A grad transfer big would make the most sense if the Twins aren't eligible, but no sense to a player if they are. The
NCaa-holes need to get off there asses and make a ruling on the transfer rule!!

The NCAA slow waking the rule change is messing it up for us - I think the strategy now has to be grad transfer guard(s) who can be sold on PT either way. Transfer Rule passes - probably better then freshmen guards and there will be time available because we lost 75 minutes of the 2/3 spots. Transfer Rule doesn’t pass - we play small tons of PT available.

Pretty sure someone here said in the summer said that Illeri, after watching a workout video, reminded them of former A10 ROY, POTY, 2 time All A10, and first round pick DeAndre Bembry.

SAN ANTONIO — North Texas men's basketball junior forward Abou Ousmane scored a career-high 37 points and grabbed 11 rebounds Thursday night to lead the Mean Green to a 78-54 Conference USA opening victory over UTSA at the Convocation Center.
Ousmane dropped 37 points on an efficient 15-of-19 shooting. It is the most points scored in a single game by a UNT player since Roosevelt Smart scored 42 at Rice on Jan. 13, 2018.
"Give UTSA credit, because they kept us off balance early," said UNT head coach Grant McCasland. "We traded punches with them early in the second half but settled in defensively and got some separation. But Abou was phenomenal."
Ousmane's 37-point performance surpassed his previous career-high of 23 and is tied for the 18th most points scored in a game by a UNT player.
"We were way more efficient tonight and Abou made the simple play and had about as good of a performance as we've ever had from the forward position," McCasland added.

I was always disappointed when he decommitted but couldn't blame him.
He found a good landing spot at North Texas; they have been a strong program at C-USA.

Agree that he would be a good pickup and would do some damage in the A10, as well.

Out of curiosity, if anyone here has been following transfers closely, how many transfers from conf’s similar to the A10 (say, in the 11-15 net rated conf’s ) make lateral conf moves vs going P5/P6 ?

To clarify, I am talking starter level players transferring in my question above.
