19-20 Transfer Thread

[militarydog]

The NCAA already has a bunch of degree progress completion requirements, incentives & punishments . Personally I don't think these guidelines are strong enough. My model would be much simpler: Graduate a student athlete and you get to open up a scholarship next year for an incoming player.

I’m in favor of the grad transfer rule. I am not trying to be argumentative to your position but would love to hear the reasons you do not appear to be in favor of it.

I'm definitely in favor of the current transfer rule. I have applauded the players that have taken advantage of the rule to graduate on time or early with a completed degree. Remember Danni Williams-I wanted her to come to UCONN last season instead she wasted her time down in Texas.

Speaking of University of Texas, Karisma Ortiz's petition to play immediately was denied. If you remember, the former California high school star signed with Penn State, played one year as a freshman and then left following Coach Coquese Washington's release. So, in this instance, the change in coaching staffs seemed to have no postive bearing for the request.

According to this article below, courtesy of Raoul's website:
"After spending her freshman year at Penn State, Ortiz moved onto Texas in May. Texas had appealed to the NCAA in an effort to get the six-foot guard on the court this season, but that waiver was officially denied on Wednesday. This news comes a week after a similar decision was made about Destiny Littleton, who transferred from Texas to South Carolina.
“This decision is not surprising,” UT coach Karen Aston said in a statement.

Will be interested to see where she ends up and if her story ever gets out. Her mother is still incredibly pro-MSU on twitter, so safe to say nothing bad happened there I think.

DeCosta transfers to Loyola Marymount.

LMU coach, Charity Elliot, is a solid coach. LMU beat UCLA and Arizona last year.
It is not a bad place to wind up, IMO.

I'm stunned. Figured if DeCosta was going to return to the West Coast, it would be a Pac 12 school. WCC has had a few high profile transfers before, but I think this is probably the biggest?

Has Deja Kelly announced?

shes announcing Monday. She has ND in her final 5 but MM has already spoke about her recruiting class so I’m thinking she isn’t going there. Any thoughts on where??

One article said UNC or TAMU

My thoughts exactly ...w...t...h....??? Why not Cal or UCLA or even USC?

I didn’t think it was that crazy if DeCosta wound up at Pacific with her buddy Kakala but I kept thinking nah. Guess I was closer to being right than I thought. Same conference.

Think you’re right. Some others Valerie Higgens #15, Retta Kakala #25, Gabby Green #11 and others I’m sure I’m missing. Higgens has been pretty good, Green was ok I guess at LMU but not what you would expect. I have no idea why Kakala isn’t in Pacific’s lineup yet.

NC is going to have some nice talent to work with over the coming years.

well no offense to the young lady, but I looked up her stats... only averaged 0.8 pts and 0.6 rebounds per game. I dont think that's worthy of any graphics. Now watch her drop 30 and 20 on Duke's head in the coming years.

This is a nice get for coach Kieger. She was Villanova's second-leading scorer as a junior at 13.8 ppg; it had been announced earlier she'd be redshirting this year due to injury. Presumably a grad transfer.

Villanova has been overall the best team in the state of Pennsylvania over the past several years, but that appears to be changing fast.

And sadly, it’s not my hometown Pitt Panthers changing that... Would have much rather Pitt gotten Kieger than Lance White, but oh well.

No doubt I’d take Kieger over White but White isn’t a bad coach. He just may not be able to recruit at Pitt. I root for Pitt until they play Boston College or Lville. Pitt players play hard under White. Not fair they have to play L’ville twice a year every year and not a patsy. ACC added conference games and Lville and ND now play twice like it should be.

Bre Scott to UALR.

Well at least she keeps to stay in the Maroon.
