Transfer Portal Starting to Load

[aceboon]

I don't get allocating NIL funds to a player that had ACL surgery in March but I guess they really believe he's gonna be available to play next season. ACL recoveries/rehab are trending longer for basketball players the past few years and if you're a parent why would you rush someone back that young and projected lottery?

They just added the Alabama forward, too... Pope brings in lots of pieces. Will be interesting to see how it all meshes.

If this last year was any sign, he'll figure it out. He made lemonade out of a pack of late stage portalers last year, and got them to buy in and love playing for him. They were simply limited and always injured.

Pope will be one to watch out for. He missed on some early portal adds but has made up for it in the last week.

Until Hurley takes a BE transfer I’m assuming he won’t.

I don’t think he’d have anything against a Big East transfer, but I don’t think that’s even relevant for a guy who wasn’t even good enough to play at Seton Hall.

Not relevant at all - always interesting to see what BE kids go portaling, I almost assume all SH kids do.

That's an interesting one... I really wanted to grab him last year. Just went searching through his original thread last year and many of you predicted he'd leave Cinci and come back here.

Tyler Betsey-Cincinnati SF from Windsor, Ct- In portal. Probably dependent on AK decision as to interest

Basically he will be ready for Conference play , peaking in march. Not a bad bet

Exactly the player we need. Like perfect in so many ways

Betsey... that could work. The one that got away.

This is interesting. I think we recruited him didn't we? His stats look...underwhelming.

Was he? His shooting was just okay, can't pass, and isn't very good on defense.

I'd recruit him, but assume more of a Ross role.

We were a finalist along w/ Bama...

Stats aren't pretty, but there's lots of talent there.

I liked Betsey a lot in high school recruiting, but I didn't dig into how well he played this year.

I don’t think very well but he could be a Polley-type player eventually

@kobe at least you get to eat some of Houston’s crumbs though, amirite?

We still have someone in the Ross role. Jayden Ross.

I guess he didn't like the skyline chili.

I always thought Cincinnati was a strange choice for him. Curious to see where his next stop will be.

He said in an interview that the unwritten rule of not going after players in your conference is over. I think he will consider transfers from other Big East teams.

Betsey's stats in 11 minutes in 34 games very similar to Ross's 11 minutes in 33 games
