wasnt expecting an intra-aac transfer. idk how recruits keep falling for penny's sales pitch.

I believe you mean $ale$ pitch.

They know exactly what they're getting from Penny. A crappy coach and some pocket change. Now that NIL is blowing up, I his appeal is diminishing

Am I missing something here. Why is Max still at Oral Roberts? Is this the next portal news to drop? SDSU is an overwhelming fav in the Summit next year.

This is a potential portal dweller that could REALLY put a team over the top. I would buy this NIL stock low. It could blow up!

Man I hate this! :(

No, just his personal opinion from watching his HS games online. He likes his list height/weight, just doesn't think he's ready to handle the physicality of the Big East.

Personally, I think that's overblown: it's not like every player in the Big East is Dylan Addae-Wus.

Dude, how the ____ do you know this many college basketball players? I’m taking your word for it that Dylan Addie-Wus is a real person. I mean this without snark: I genuinely appreciate the info in your posts and learn something about college basketball with every one.

This is even funnier when you realize he didn’t spell Addae-Wusu correctly. He plays for St John’s.

Thanks man.

I just love college basketball and within the sport, a lot of my attention is spent on a variety of teams/conferences.

Outside of the Big East, I don't watch a lot of high-major basketball, outside a few teams I like to follow each year or certain matchups I'm really excited about.

One of those teams, Virginia, added a big time transfer yesterday: Ohio's Ben Vander Plas: a 6'8 232 skilled and tough forward who averaged 14.3p, 6.8r, 3.1a, 1.8s, 45.7 fg%, 33.8 3p% last year.

With Jayden Gardner (15.3 ppg) and Kihei Clark (10p, 4.4a) returning for their fifth year, Virginia returns their starting lineup, a top-100 recruit from '21, brings in a four-man '22 class that features three top-70 recruits and adds Vander Plas.

After a 21-14 "rebuilding year", Virginia will be a team to watch in 22-23.

Nijel Pack signs major NIL deal following Miami commitment

Nijel Pack signed a major NIL deal with LifeWallet. The news broke shortly after the former Kansas State star committed to the Miami Hurricanes.
www.on3.com www.on3.com

We talk about playing time. Pack went into the portal from Kansas State, picked Miami, and by a fortuitous coincidence, has already signed a 2 year $400,000 per year deal + car with Life Wallet and is working on others. When a player of this average stature commands money like this, the 'arms' race clearly now has left the cash in a paper bag, or previous sneaker level payments. Tough to be a coach only offering playing time and improvement. Who even needs to get to the league. Just stretch out college as long as you can. Man has the landscape changed. NIL deals can't be used to entice a player to your team. Sure. (sarcasm if not obvious) Also has to be a death blow to Overtime Elite if going to college is now defacto the pro's with a much broader market for your services.

I agree with the overall point, but Nijel Pack was one of the top 4 or 5 transfers available
 


This couldn’t make less sense to me if it was a playing time thing. We have 20-25 mpg easy for him right now.

Will you finally stop repeating this once we get castle to reclass and the rest of the roster is filled out? If Floyd was getting up to 25 mpg here next year we weren’t gonna be any good.

Please help. Just who has left the team via transfer since September 2021. I know we lost 4 to graduation.

Floyd may not have earned those minutes if he stayed, but with Castle now saying he’s not likely to reclass and only one ball handler signed so far to replace RJ’s and Gaffney’s minutes, we definitely have the minutes still available right now.

You have no clue what Floyd will be. Maybe he’ll be good, maybe he won’t. But as of right now we have 4 guys off the bench who will all be 4’s or 5’s in this offense. He’d be the first guy off the bench at 3 spots. Even if we bring Castle in, he’d still play good minutes. Providence just took 2 other transfers who play his same position. Only way I can see him not having a role is if we bring in Castle plus another high level transfer like Ramy…but if Floyd stayed we probably wouldn’t have brought in more than 2 transfers and maybe Castle.

understood, i'm saying there is just no point to the constant reminder. we know we have 4 open schollys so let's wait to judge the potential impact of his transfer until we have at least 3 more of them filled. the season isn't starting this week.

He didn’t say that. He said he’s currently not thinking about it.

I feel that’s accurate. I also feel that several players are still with the program including the three players who played significant minutes last season so whatever precipitated the one transfer who most likely was going to get playing time next year had to be personal for that player and not a problem with the program.

That could be, too. Tough to parse the words of teens. I guess I figured he was given the opportunity to say something to make it sound less ambiguous and more likely, and he didn’t do that.
