Transfer Portal April 2023

Yup.

Also, my main point in posting those clips wasn’t necessarily start three freshmen, but that we usually have freshmen come in and make the impact of a Clingan and Karaban pretty consistently. Whether the team success came with it is another story but it’s not abnormal to see a freshmen come in and play well here.

I left a lot of guys off this list from the 2010s alone (like Bazz, Scoe, Omar Calhoun, and Daniel Hamilton)

Fuggit I found these from Omar’s freshman year too and can’t leave them off



2012- Omar Calhoun Three vs. Providence

Loved Omar Calhoun freshman year. Man, was Mike Patrick the worst or what?

Yeah nobody is disputing that Ross can contribute, but he's not going to start day 1 for a top 10 team with legitimate championship hopes. It's just not realistic, and deep down I think you know that even if you won't admit it. There's a big difference between looking good against good HS competition and starting for one of the best college teams in the country
All depends on the roster of this hypothetical top 10 team.

If there's no Jackson and no Newton next year, just who will be the starters if the only experienced players are Clingan, Karaban, Romouglou, Diarra and Johnson ?

Big holes to fill could make for a team like the 10/11 team on which the freshmen contributed over 60% of the minutes played.....even more than the vaunted freshman class at Kentucky.

Well in that hypothetical scenario we'd be bringing in 1-2 experienced transfers to get to the 11-12 man roster Hurley wants. And even if the 10 we currently know, I think you'd likely see Karaban at the 3 and Johnson at the 4 before Ross starts day 1

If both elect to not return freshman will be huge immediately. Diarra is Diarra, can’t be a starter if you want to be a top team. And the other 2, who knows. Our best bet is the freshman growing up fast or a surprise late get somehow.

What’s the deadline on the portal??? We have to be running into a limited amount of time between the two players deciding and the portal deadline.

Front end deadline for players to enter is May 11 (this Thursday). Players have up until the fall to choose a new school though, just have to be in the portal by Wednesday
 
Joe Girard III to Clemson, sorry if this was already mentioned. Staying in conference will make for an interesting game, when he beats up on Cuse next year.
 
Excited for the last few days of portal entries. Hopefully our coaches have a good idea of what's likely to happen with the NBA guys by now.
 
Good Jackson replacement
There is no such thing as a good replacement for Andre. It took me watching most of the games from this season on replay to really appreciate what a terrific player he is. Perhaps my favorite Husky ever and my first game was in 1967.
 
Zuby Ejiofor from Kansas has mentioned UConn. 6'9 240 who was a frosh last year who came in ranked 40-50. I think I'm in the minority, but I'd like a player on the team that can hold position against power players trying to back down in the paint. I can't quite see Johnson or Singare ready for that next year. I'd like another option as much as a shooter.

Would be a nice luxury to have, but I don't see the minutes available unless we're totally writing off Johnson getting more than 10 minutes a game.

He's intruiguing. Where'd you see the UConn mention?

Zuby Ejiofor enters transfer portal; Top 5 landing spots
 
If we bring in a transfer big, it needs to be Grant Nelson. Dan Hurley needs players with versatility and mobility.
