Exodus at Wichita State...

[bendm]

with the new transfer rule kicking in this annual mass exodus could be the new normal for teams in mid major conferences. the only 2 programs i see overcoming it are gonzaga and memphis....no more seasons like the one dayton just had. fewer cinderallas at the big dance. thank god we left the aac when we did- we certainly wouldnt be vying for nolley right now.

Holy moly... Crazy story in Wichita

 

[Hey Adrien!]

Wichita State is now down to SIX scholarship players.

Probably not a good place to AG with this wave of losses. Way too many to assure you have people to throw the ball to.

Here's a more honest and direct opinion from Erik Stevenson. Pretty classless, but what else would you expected from him?

Someone to watch out for here is Tyson Etienne. Mac’s cousin. We need a guard, we fairly heavily recruited him out of HS. Played for PSA which has essentially become a feeder program for us.

Doesn’t seem like he’s going anywhere. In the article posted by Hey Adrien!, Etienne is quoted as being committed to the program and to Marshall’s vision. Pretty much assured fans that he’s staying put.

Sounds like he’ll struggle at any school unless he has a coach that coddles his ego. He’d be transferring away from a Calhoun coached team also. He complained about Marshall’s one mistake and you’re out rule. Something like that is classic Calhoun.

Mostly blames trying to keep 2 guys at once at point guard and center position, leading to neither being happy and all 4 of them leaving. Says Dexter Dennis told him he'd be back even if he put his name in the draft. Added Al, some JuCo guys and a couple high school recruits, couple guys sitting out this past year that they're excited about.

The existing PG became resentful when he thought Marshall was fluffing up the new guy too much. Doesn't seem likely that would happen with Dan Hurley.

 

[Hey Adrien!]

If I'm the kid, I keep whatever happened between me and the school.

 

[Mazhude]

Regardless of what the kids say, their actions speak louder than words. And the coach clearly lost control of the locker room.

Honestly equates to lack of class?

 

[Mazhude]

Listen, everyone is recruiting the same "culture" of kids these days. Don't put it on the kids, put a lack of "team" on the coach. There are plenty of D1 coaches out there that don't have 7 transfers and a walk-on (of all things) leaving their team this year...

 

[Hey Adrien!]

Fair points. Obviously, Marshall has done something in the wrong and there is evidence from his former players of poor relationships with players.

This just goes back to Alterique. Hope it all works out for him in Wichita.

AG is now the lineman for the county
