Brendan Adams Graduating in May

[M.S.G.]

He's participating in senior day. He's transferring or going pro somewhere. I doubt this falls under the speculation rule here

This was hinted at early on, I think even before the season began. With the talent coming in I had almost assumed that he would be a grad transfer after this year. The fact that he lost his starting position (which always confused me as to why he was starting in the first place) and his subsequent burial on the bench now seems to indicate that he'll look for a prominent role elsewhere next year. I wish him the best with whatever he decides.

Are we certain that Richie Springs is still on the team? Has there ever been a scholarship player spoken less about? We never hear a word about him.

Hurley did talk about him this year that he's a developmental player. What else is there to talk about with a player that has played 4 minutes total this season?

Why do we need another guy who can’t shoot? I mean I get the excitement to watch the kid but only because he’s on URI. He shoots them into games but also shoots them out of games, and often.

23% this year from 3, 33% from the floor? No thank you there will be much better out there available somehow.

We could grab just about any guy from Davidson and they would help our scoring more than a 23% shooter.
That said, congrats and good luck to Brendan. Good guy and a hard worker.

If he's graduated it wouldn't be considered transferring.

General rule is not to speculate on our own guys transferring. He could enroll in postgrad, use the COVID year and get a 2 year Masters in his 5 years of eligibility.

Congrats to BA for graduating in 3 years. I can’t wait to see where he ends up.

I wish him well. Great teammate who didn’t sulk on the bench when his playing time was taken away.

He will be successful wherever his life takes him.

He's one of those players whose legacy will be far beyond what they accomplished on the court. His personality and work ethic seemed very important in getting the culture change that Hurley wanted. Very important recruit for this program and I can't wait to watch him over the next two seasons. I hope he finds a strong academic school where he can get a valuable post-grad degree and some playing time.
