Anybody aware of any potential grad transfers that could be added?

[RipCity]

Part of me is saying I don't want him, and the other part of me is sad that I have to sit and hope TSam can become him.

Eligible immediately. Not a bad player, but he's a 6'3'' shooting guard who was 1-12 from 3 for the entire season (and 0-4 the previous season). He's not a point guard and he's not a shooter, so he doesn't exactly fill a need.

You mean he actually made one? That's an improvement over one of our guards! Sign me up

Best case is that Brown reclassifies, but Gordon - with his three years of experience - would be a nice addition.

He may not be a shooter, but he's a solid all-around guard, kind of like Kromah. LK never lit it up at GW, and he turned out to be an extremely valuable piece to a NC-winning team.

They'll be starting a freshman at point, so I'm a for adding more experience (whether Gordon or someone else) in the backcourt.

Better than TSam. Sign him up!

Doesn't this describe UCONN's returning backcourt?

did Goodman's transfer list come out yet?

 

[Vuce]

Stay away from him. Nice kid but not a fit here.

 

[rip7774]

No thanks. I never liked the Harris' recruitment - Neither one (Tobias or Tyler).

How many transfers has this kid had now?

Given this is in the Derrick Gordon thread (who is the firs openly gay D1 player), I can't tell if it is a bad pun.

 

[champs99and04]

I think Gordon could play here. But he and Samuel might be redundant.

No. Purvis shot 36% from 3.

Maybe you can say that about Samuel, but we're talking about shooting guards, and Purvis can shoot.

Well actually TSAM is more of a shooting guard who can't shoot than a point guard. He is good slasher and nothing else. His lack of handle and point guard skills make him a glaring weakness at the one when he does play it. He is better off the ball slashing to the lane for a bucket.

I know. I'm just trying to play along with what struck me as an ill-informed post.

 

[Fishy]

Derrick Gordon's a pretty good player, but I don't see where he fits here.

If we're looking for Bruce Brown and we already have Purvis and Samuel, it would see that our shooting guard issues are buttoned up.

If Gordon was hitting 40% on threes, that'd be a different story.

Unrelated note - why are guys leaving good situations?

Pedestrian stats, except for 45.5% shooting from three...probably not going to happen but worth a look anyway?

 

[mdkhusky]

apparently the ncaa is making changes with transfer rules. not sure if it includes grad transfers but it may

 

[MDHusky]

Looking at Jeff Borzello's list of players transferring and players re-opening recruiting due to coaching change - there's really no quality showing up yet.

Paschall could help but don't think any of the others would bring much to the 2015/2016 Huskies.

 

[jfuchs91]

He's not a transfer, but has anyone heard any word about Georgios Papagiannis lately? I know our staff was looking at him a couple months back. Last I heard, it was unlikely he was coming back stateside, but he would be a nice talent to add to next year's squad.

Dude it's a joke Good god.

When a significant portion of the board's population said exactly what you said, you can see why I wouldn't take what you wrote as a joke.

Jordan Micky lsu might be transferring, first team sec big man I think. Sounds like he's worth a look...

My money is on him entering the draft if he leaves LSU. Some sites were giving him mid-late first round consideration earlier this year. He was nursing an injury as the season wound down so his stock's a little low, but I wouldn't be surprised if he's looking into it.

Mickey is either going pro or staying at LSU
