Kadary Richmond to transfer portal

[Huskyforlife]

Right, except for the fact that no one has said he’s not a good basketball player.

Alright champ, whatever you say.

 

[Huskyforlife]

He's a great basketball player, just not a fit for us.
If Dan Hurley thinks he fits, he'll contact him. Otherwise, he won't.
He's high usage, and poor defense (that's the Andre/Castle difference)

He's not poor at defense.

That wasn't even about you. Not sure why you're upset?

Not upset. The response was as appropriate to you as yours was to the poster above me.
You're saying you disagree with him. I'm saying i disagree with you.
No anger. I enjoy a good Kadary Richmond discussion.

Sounds like you’re upset here. You okay?

 

[HooperScooper]

Alright champ, whatever you say.

Why are you so defensive about your take on Richmond? Your reactions in this thread are strange.

 

[Huskybass]

Richmond is a hell of a player. Hurley is a hell of a coach. Don't sell that combination short.

 

[uconn_jack]

Boy, do I have a story for you.

Bit of a difference though, Cam was a grad transfer and wasn't chasing better NIL, was looking for a team (key word) he could win with.

 

[caw]

Sir, he is embarking off to his third team.

Not a smart fit, culturally.

Come on, are you blaming him for leaving his first team? Blame him for joining them in the first place, but leaving?

 

[twiceahusky]

I’ve read concern about character, quitting, etc.

Then I remembered that Seton Hall was about the only non-NCAA tourney team that brought it all year, right through the NIT championship (NITTY???). He also won me $$.

Not saying that I do or don’t want him, but Kadary plays hard to win.

 

[nomar]

Boy, do I have a story for you.

If you’re referring to Cam, that’s apples and kiwis. Come on. One guy kept upping the level of competition, having been continuously underrated. The other? You tell me.

 

[JustbrewitMan]

Chase that Bag!!!

 

[Kolumbo]

How good a pro could Kadary be? He's not good enough to leave after 3 seasons. The NIL bag probably has something to do with it. Maybe playing for a title contender will raise his stock as much as possible. Going the free agent route could easily be hit or miss though.

I can’t blame a player who probably won’t be drafted for wanting to get paid. Seton Hall is not winning a championship next year so It’s not like he’s on a team that can do something special next season. Kadary is going to make some team better.

 

[prankster]

It all comes down to whether or not he has garbage parents.

I see none of the above comments addressed that aspect....

 

[Verne]

Repole all but confirmed it this morning at Churchill Downs.

 

[jibsey]

15 points, 4 assists, 2 turnovers and his team got beat by 30 points in his last showing vs UConn, but he has many dominating games. Does his ego fit our team or would he upset the chemistry that Hurley strives for?

Richmond is a very good player and we have all seen the strengths in his game. It is an unrealistic, and probably unfair, expectation to have him change his game so dramatically and quickly to fit UConn's offense.

 

[AntG168]

No one connected to Seton Hall has ever tried to defend Kadary against those allegations. That’s telling.

PASS

 

[dennismenace]

It will be interesting to see how Slick Rick is able to manage all of the personalities on his team next year

With an iron fist as usual. His way or the highway.

 

[gtcam]

Where was that ever confirmed?

in his own mind

If people can see the vision with Reed after what I watched of his Michigan film, they should also believe our staff can coach those bad habits out of Kadary.

These things are not the same. It's a heck of a lot easier to tweak a guy's game than it is to change his drive and motor (on the court and off). Hurley's messaging this offseason has been pretty clear. Don't bring the wrong people or parents into the organization. You don't want a guy that misses 3 key games in the middle of a conference title race mysteriously as a senior. Neither the rumors (relating to NIL $) nor the official story would make him the right fit for our program.

The official story from the coach is that Kadary is not telling the coach or trainer what his injury is... after the 2nd game he missed? Just contrast this with what Cam did for us last year. You only have so many roster spots. There are a lot of talented guys out there. We don't need to risk the culture for a moderately more talented player than alternatives.

That was a polite way of Shaheen saying Kadary was butthurt about not getting enough NIL...
