Message: [QUOTE="KnightBridgeAZ, post: 3943483, member: 591"] I want to reply to a couple different posts, so take my remarks in that vein: 1 - I didn't take the original post as particularly critical, but as stated a subject for discussion. In the abstract, the issues raised in this thread - transfers, NIL and the UConn system of player development are factors that are bound to affect each other over the coming years. 2 - As several identified, I think this season is not going to be representative of transfers going forward, that is, they will be more prevalent in the past but not as prevalent as this season with the extended eligibility. That said, the point buried in one post was particularly germane - it isn't so much the issue of players leaving UConn en-masse (isn't going to happen) but the fact that the pattern of "good" teams / rebuilding / reloading of other teams will likely be affected. I don't think it will bother Geno much, he seems to be pretty much ready for anybody. 3 - The issues of NIL are the wild card. Those issues are going to affect UConn and every team in ways that at this point are obviously unknown. Still, I expect smart programs are already looking ahead at the issue and making their best preparation. 4 - and finally, the 4 season breakdown of UConn system that the OP offered was way to quickly dismissed by some posters - it is almost certainly a mildly generic breakdown of what most teams are trying to do regarding developing players, obviously just an outline. Geno just does it particularly well. [/QUOTE]
