This is probably a joke but no. Antoine's college career has been ruined by injury and he's never shown he can produce at all at this level. Everyone is back for Nova and most importantly Whitmore, Armstrong, and Hausen announced they're committed to Nova.

247 Crystal Balls predict Ward to sign w/ Georgetown.

If true, nice weekend for Georgetown adding Ward and Spears.

Georgetown has a brutal season, their top talent has transferred out over the past few years, Patrick Ewing (who I loved as a Knickerbocker) has proved nothing as a coach other than his team catching fire in last year's BE tourney and top kids still want to go there. Amazing!!

Ward is going there because they hired his guy Jordan Brooks.

Certainly is a different game now. Top 25 players will go where they get paid the most. The remaining players go to schools that recruit them the old fashioned way. Then many leave those schools if they don’t get what they want. Microcosm of society. Don’t have to pay your dues to move up. Instant gratification

Weston was touted as their highest ranked recruit since Whitehead but got derailed by an ACL injury his senior year. He had said he was staying at SHU when Shaheen was hired. His primary recruiter is now coaching at Rhode Island.
 
With Ward going to LSU and adding Heath/Spears, Georgetown's roster is starting to fill out:

Guards with PG potential:
Dante Harris, JR, 11.9p,
Jay Heath, SR, 10.6p, 43 3p%, transfer from Arizona State
Amir Spears, SO, 12.7p, transfer from Duquesne
Denver Anglin, FR, #82 '22 recruit

Wings/Forwards
Brandon Murray, SO, 10p, transfer from LSU
Wayne Bristol, SR, 12.5p, transfer from Howard
Jordan Riley, SO, former #147
D'Ante Bass, FR, #252 '22 recruit

Bigs
Ryan Mutombo, SO, 5.1p, former #84
Malcolm Wilson, SR, 2.5p

They're still thin on 4s and bigs, but the situation doesn't look as dire as it did a few weeks ago. I'm assuming Mohammed is gone, but if he's back, Ewing can run some interesting 4 out offenses with Mohammed at the 4.
 
St. John’s message board is making a big deal about landing Illinois transfer Cubello and DePaul transfer David Jones.

Will either of these transfers make a difference for the Johnnies ?

Yes, David Jones is really good. Curbelo has a lot of talent but had concussions and was really bad last season.

This is on Hurley! He's officially on the hot seat, how dare he...

OH! Oh, wait... This is happening to everyone... And is actually worse for other Big East programs. Well I guess things aren't as bad as I thought!

Except that I think most people who are upset about the transfers care more about the 2 guys who left who didn't get any minutes (Floyd) or very little minutes (Diggins).

Floyd I get because I think he would have been useful this year, but that's exactly the point with Diggins. Everyone is getting upset about losing a guy who couldn't get any minutes last year despite a massive need at his position
