Transfer thread

[hoopsfan22]

Some very interesting rumors going around involving tampering. And she had her profile in the portal marked "do not contact" from the jump so I would say it's at least safe to say she knows where she is going already.

How would one know this? The portal is a confidential system only available to certain athletic department staff.

Idk how they would know. That's why I said the info was rumor-based.

My guess is that people see "do not contact" on her transfer page and think that her mind is already made up, because TAMPERING.

Ah. Here we go. This is where that info came from:

 

[triaddukefan]

If memory serves, she had UNC, Duke, NC State, UNCW (which would really be going home), and NC A&T in her top however many.

I'd love it if she went to A&T.

I understand that part, but the system itself where you would see it is confidential and few have access to it. So to find out that someone is in the portal and what restrictions are on their entry would have to be leaked by the player themselves or by a coach which seems like something that would be against the rules since it's supposed to be confidential. To be clear, the "portal" is an NCAA app and not a website that anyone can just go browse which is why I'm always surprised to see twitter get the jump on putting out info about who is in the portal before the players can even put out their own statement to break the news.

There were whispers late in the season that there could be some attrition from SC and with Rivers' suspension, it wasn't a big leap to assume she might be leaving. There are always back channels to work (AAU coach, parents).

Here's Raoul's blog page on Rivers' HS recruitment. Lot of teams there: she went from 12 finalists to South Carolina. Heck, no wonder she said "don't contact": She's got 11 other places she can check out!

This doesn't imply tampering! numerous players select that option because they don't want Southwestern Tennessee State or another random school calling them. This makes it so they can handle who they want to speak with

The schools have 1 or 2 days to enter the player into the portal so the player requests it but they don't know when they will go in but the colleges who sit on the portal all day surely find out when someone enters.

The schools are required to enter the player in the portal within 2 business days.

Isn't this the group that had Nika Muhl in the portal?

Isn't this the group that had Nika Muhl in the portal?

And Cardoso going to Uconn and Owusu and Reese going to South Carolina.

Pretty soon there will be more transfer threads than players in the transfer portal.

I agree. What coach in their right mind is not going to pick up Saniya Rivers if she wants to come to your school.

 

[CocoHusky]

I don’t want to be that guy, but someone is now following Saniya on ig as of today. If the “do not contact” in the portal is confirmed….

I'm pretty sure a social media "following" is not considered "contact" by this NCAA definition.

A contact occurs any time a college coach says more than hello during a face-to-face contact with a college-bound student-athlete or his or her parents off the college’s campus.

Help me out. It’s been noted here that if players put “do not contact” on their portal data, it’s because they already know where they are headed. I’m not sure that’s always true. The player may have narrowed things down to a few schools and wants no more contact.

My question is ….if a player and a school have agreed that she will join their program before she even enters her name in the Portal, the talks probably occurred prior to the end of the season. Are there rules about contacting and timing?

Yes. The rules is pretty simple: An institution CANNOT contact an enrolled SA until that student's name is placed in the transfer portal.

 

[LoboDays]

Yes. The rules is pretty simple: An institution CANNOT contact an enrolled SA until that student's name is placed in the transfer portal.

Thanks. In some of these cases, there seems to be very little time between the portal entry and the new school announcement. Someone was talking to someone.

 

[BRS24]

Are current players considered boosters and also off limits in talking with a portal enrollee?

 

[CocoHusky]

I was simply stating what the rule is. Someone is always talking to someone. There will always be people not committed to abiding by the rules.

 

[CocoHusky]

Current and former players and parents "can" be considered boosters. Boosters are not prohibited from talking to a portal employee. The restriction on boosters is they are not allowed to be involved in recruiting of a prospective SA. If you are a booster and you have a hotshot prospect in your area you can refer then to the UCONN staff but that is about it.
