Mark Few has been winning in the tournament since the 90’s and he had no Top 100 recruits back then.

He has formulated his teams off of transfers and underrated high school prospects.

He has never had to cheat and never will. He built it up the hard way and that is what makes him so impressive. That is why kids want to play for him.

I’ve met him before. He is a blue collar, grind it out, honest type of dude.

Nothing like Calipari, Sean Miller, Will Wade. But you can go ahead and keep talking trash out of assumption and envy if you like

spare me the self righteous nonsense.

It’s one thing to find the underrated guys.


It’s another to play in the Suggs, Holmgren sandbox

You sound like the duke fans about Zion. And we know how that turned out

People in this place that dont think all top 150 kids get compensated, including by UConn, are just ignorant.

This Q poster is sounding more and more like Q with his posts.

I generally hate bringing in transfers and Juco players as it disrupts chemistry, takes them too long to make an impact and then they're gone. With that said, two of my favorite players Shonn Miller (grad transfer) and Johnnie Selvie (Juco) came this way. But for every Miller and Selvie, there's a Covington Cormier. They need to be immediate impactful starting players or we should pass.

Times have changed, if you're not shopping in the transfer market you're doing yourself a disservice

Even if this were true, why is that only a select amount of programs and coaches are getting caught? And why do they happen to be typically the same programs and the same coaches??

Are Mark Few and Dan Hurley just better at hiding it?

And then my other question would be, why pick on Mark Few? There are bigger fish to fry out there and 1 and Done factories.

The poster I responded to is more envious than a realist.

Screw being self righteous. Some people deserve to be defended when someone is spewing out bs and making false claims.

Mark Few is one of those guys. And so is Dan Hurley.

It’s not fair to paint them all them under the same brush as some of the notorious cheaters and slime balls out there.

Its lazy is what it is and you are defending a lazy opinion without any proof because you are being prideful.


You have not clue what’s going on inside their program.

You’re prob just picking on Gonzaga because you’re jealous of their success. I can’t think of any other solid reason

Yeah cause it’s more believable a top 5 Recruit took zero money while lesser recruits got paid....
 
Big Guard Alert:

Nebraska guard Teddy Allen is on the grad transfer market.

6'6 223, 16.5p, 49.7 2p%, 37.6 3p%, ~40 FGAs are 3s, 4.7r, 1.3s.

Also, Monmouth grad transfer Melik Martin:

6'6 200, 12.5p, 5.7r, 1.5s, 39.7 3p% (about 30% of shot attempts from 3).

Immediately my #1 target too.

2002 career points with 54.9 2p%, 36.6 3p%, 76.2 ft%.

Played the 3, 2 and some 1 at Davidson. Similar to Hurley, McKillop plays a slow half-court offensive style. Waiting for a co-worker who's a Davidson alum and big time fan to get back to me on a scouting report.

Here's the report from my Davidson alum, big fan co-worker:

* A score-first point guard who gets assists more due to being ball dominant than being a great passer. Serviceable defensive player, but not known for defense despite his size/length/athleticism combo.

Thanks for doing all this. Way too much for me to keep track of

Just saw this. I watched Tyler Kolek play when he was in 6th grade. I was a coach of my daughter's team and he was a year older and playing in a tournament our school hosted. He played on a team with guys 2-3 years older than him and was the best player on the team. Incredible court awareness, passing, spacing, anticipation. His dad was a prolific DIII player.

Kenya Hunter was a big reason why he went to Indiana after his dad passed away at UT Martin. Definitely an unfortunate situation.

I don’t think we reached out to him at the time, but Javonte was probably still on the team at the time, so we might not have had the room.
 
Jamison Battle from GW looks good as well.

6 ft 7, 225 lbs.
17.3 points and 5.2 rb
47.5/35.4 fg%/3pt%
78.7% ft

High of 29 and 26 vs Duquene and URI.

He’s heard from Marquette, Nebraska, Arkansas, Tennessee, Arizona, Loyola Chicago and Cincinnati
 
Let's hope Dan Hurley has back channels 10 times removed and is "recruiting" some real shooters from other schools looking for better exposure.
 
Maybe I'm cynical but when a coveted player enters the transfer portal I'm thinking it mostly for "cover"

I'm assuming many have already been contacted by program reps and they know where they are going.

Of course prior existing relationships play a big role as well.

Kellan Grady certainly sounds like a perfect fit.

3. KELLAN GRADY, G, DAVIDSON​

2020-21 stats: 17.1 points, 4.6 rebounds and 2.4 assists per game.

Bossi’s take: You know what doesn’t grow on trees? Dudes who have scored over 2,000 points, dished out nearly 250 assists and grabbed over 450 rebounds for a program as well coached as Davidson. Shooting guard Kellan Grady is a potential dream come true for a contender in need of a proven shooter with size, experience and some serious credentials.

Just look at Grady’s career, he’s a model of consistency. His 34.4 minutes per game as a senior were the fewest he played during his career and he was either a first or second team All-Atlantic 10 performer during each of his four years of college. A former top 70 player in high school, he looks to be about as can’t miss a transfer prospect as there is.
