Enter anytime but they still have to commit by the deadline.

 

[Marat]

Ok, I'm assuming he is not entering the draft . Does that count?

Not sure where you got that from, but whatever article you got it from is old. It was changed in 2024

Division I Council approves changes to transfer rules - NCAA.org

The Division I Council on Wednesday unanimously adopted a package of rules changes to allow transferring student-athletes who meet certain academic eligibility requirements

The deadline for the portal has ended as of April 22 for non grads. He can enter the portal as a grad student.

But he still had to commit by April 22nd for the upcoming school year. Navery just posted the rules.

Yup! My bad.

Not commit, enter the portal.

Commit to transferring by the deadline I met.

I’ve been told he’s going to announce his decision in 20 minutes

If bjc42 likes this post before midnight, Karaban is back.

Seems like you were told wrong

So what are the odds midnight just comes and goes without an Instagram post or anything.

Looking high. He really doesn't need to say anything if he is staying.

Karaban doesn’t decide today…if? Hurley has to sign someone right?

Today should be the deadline regardless. There’s not really any need for him to test the waters again, we know exactly what he is. A mid to late second round pick, somewhere between 35-50. There’s nothing that changes that at this point. The staff should move forward accordingly after today, there’s no: let’s wait and see how it all shakes out again, they can’t wait until June to make the most essential roster decision here. Whatever the decision is today, that should be treated as final & move accordingly.

They would need to move on today if he’s still undecided, it would be coaching malpractice to jeopardize the best possible outcome to the entire season by not fielding the best team available. There’s loyalty but it has to go both ways. His future career shouldn’t be more important than the cumulative careers of the entire team who all have aspirations of having pro careers to varying degrees that could be negatively affected by UConn having a poor season needlessly leading to less national exposure. JMHO

Alex knows he should probably go to the NBA and get this career started, but deep down doesn't want to leave Uconn. Loves college to much.

So he is just going to let the clock hit 0 and say "oops, guess I ran out of time"

 

[JustbrewitMan]

Anyone hanging out near the Werth Center? Should we be looking for blue smoke coming out of a chimney at some point?

 

[ec33]

I'm beginning to sense that Alex is hesitant about coming back to UConn for 25/26.

Kind of like Houston in the finals.
