All Time Transfer Team

[joober jones]

Here's another stupid post from me that will help to eat up some time, should you need to do so. Of all the guys who have transferred out of UConn, what would be your all-time lineup? Here's mine:

PG: Doug Wiggins, Darius Smith, Rob Garrison
SG: Scottie Haralson, Jamaal Trice, Marcus Cox
SF: Nate Miles, Marcus Johnson, Edmund Saunders (not technically a transfer, but left with 1 yr of eligibility)
PF: Curtis Kelly, Ruslan Inaytkin (see Edmund Saunders), Marcus White
C: Michael Bradley, Ater Majok, Uri Cohen-Mintz

That's a pretty sad team and I'm sure I forgot some of the guys who would've been better.

Oriakhi and Coombs would have to be in there. Also, Ater didn't transfer, he went pro.

I originally made that note when I put him as a PF but moved him to center since I couldn't think of 3 that left.

Roscoe Smith.

Sam Funches left for North Texas after Souleyman became eligible in 1997 - he became a decent enough player there.

Also, Mike LeBlanc, who was a HS teammate of Jake's, left for Vandy. Played pretty well for a spell and then fell out of favor and was dismissed at the end of one season. Forgot where he went after that, but I think it was Texas somewhere.

And Stanley Ocitti and Brett Watson both transferred to Binghamton where they continued to be not very good.

I don't know how that one slipped my mind.

Has to be a place on there somewhere for Ajou Deng.

How soon do we forget Leon Tolksdorf???
Scott Hazelton, Ben Eaves, Richie Ashmeade, Antonio Kellogg, Doug Wrenn, Shawn Ellison, Chad Wise, Robert Swain, Marcus Thomas (remember him?), Covington Cormier, James Spradling, Chris Fleming, Marte Smith....Wow!
Torraino Walker quit the team.

I always thought Rob Garrison was quicker and more athletic than Donell Beverly so back then , I thought the wrong guy transferred . I was wrong and
Beverly had a good career . Marcus White rebounded with violence and total disregard for human life.

Garrison had a nice career at Niagara I think though.......worked out for everyone!

Yep. I remember watching him play a couple of times. Quick. The guys that transferred ( left) that I was actually looking forward to seeing play were Ater Majok
And Jamal Coombs-McDaniel. I actually thought those guys would've made improvements. Oh well.

How about transfers "in"?? Another thread........there were a lot of them prior to JC and even he had to use a few early on.

MW was among my favorite huskies for the brief time he was here. An offensive rebounding specialist.
