Big East Transfer Portal Thread

Rules: Only discussion of players going and leaving Big East teams. OK, some Big East related transfer news today. Butler's Chuck Harris (10.4p, 2.4a, 2Y remaining) joins Denver Anglin from Georgetown (former #78 recruit of '22, 6.8 mpg) as Big East players transferring to SMU. Since former...

Wonder if we kick the tires here. Could be an interesting 6th man.

Would push Diarra out of the rotation

 

[MJ1]

Wow, turns 25 years old in November, a grown man playing against a lot of 18 and 19 year olds. Unintended result of Covid era.

On the court as well.

 

[WrenchFan69]

Wonder if St. John's gets involved with another NIL walkon deal

If he can’t beat out freshmen for the 8th spot in the rotation, that’s on him.

Pitino will grab him, he's from NYC. Original jelly fammer, great ball control. I like his game.

 

[MDHuskFan]

Memphis is the rumor

What were the intended results?

To play where?

It wouldn’t be about that as much as it’d be about position. You’re not playing Diarra and JQ together. He’s not coming here anyways. But point still stands

I’d argue Diarra and JQ reflect each others strengths to the extent they could play together. Diarra might have to guard bigger guards with him on the floor, but he’s a fighter on defense.

But yeah he’s not coming here.

 

[mauconnfan]

Not a fan of his game. When he wants his shot he’s going to take it, good or bad so don’t try to get open he won’t find you.

Pass, unlike him!

 

[Hey Adrien!]

The rumor now is that Quinerly is just the start of a wave of soon-to-be grad transfers that will hit the portal late after officially getting their degrees once summer classes are complete.

If true, it’ll literally players’ first dance in the job market: interview at schools, get your NIL bag for your first “job” out of college.

This certainly makes some sense if allowed. How does Baker figure out how to stop that? The can of worms is wide open now.

The only logical solution would be to set a portal deadline for graduate transfers. Right now only undergrads have a deadline which was back in early May

 

[navery12]

This has been rumored for a while, doubt we use the last scholarship anyway but if we do it's not gonna be on Quinerly. That's one spot we have lots of options at already

 

[PNolanFan]

This kid was awesome as a sophomore but has sneaky sucked his other 3 years. The shooting is just not where it needs to be at his size

 

[Hey Adrien!]

‘uge. A favorite of mine:

‘uge. A favorite of mine:

Interesting fit. On one hand, they have 3 PGs on the roster already and 4 wings that want minutes. On the other hand, I don't know if I trust Dayvion McKnight to run the team and Mulcahy and Olivari could be an interesting "inverted" back-court. Not sure Craft or Claude would love this, though.

 

[ATLDYKA]

I think we need to give this kid Trey Woodbury out of Utah Valley a look. Remember watching him in the NIT last year and was impressed.

[Hey Adrien!]

To add to that:



Many local writers think St. John's and Rutgers are the top fits so far.

Ledlum is a really unique player. Strong center of gravity at 6'6 225 (he's probably heavier than that) who can do a little bit of everything but is an exceptional rebounder, strong defender and very efficient scoring inside.

Don’t know how St Johns can add him as they are already at 13 players, 1 over the limit.
