I was expecting two to open up but based on my own hunches and nothing else. Can you shed any light on these rumors?

It might be scholarships opening up real soon!!!!! Rumors are going crazy right now!!!!!! Shaking my head!!! The only reason I would give PBS a grade as high as D in this, his first truly accountable season, is because of some seemingly talented recruits he brought into the program and keeping them together without controversy and departures. He has yet to have any of his own recruits transfer. While transfers by someone like Shea Mitchell, for example, would be understandable and not surprising in today's ever-increasing player portal world, let's see what happens with the players who played substantial roles in games this year. You based your comment on RUMOR, but if what you are implying becomes reality, I may have to adjust my grade. By the way tonyt, you stated prior to the last regular season game you were going to provide your thoughts about the team after that game. I would be interested in seeing them.

Will give you this a senior actually quit the team about 3 weeks ago after a game. Stuff was crazy two players definitely didn’t get along this whole season which threw off everything in my opinion if you guys really paid attention to the season and line ups you would be able to point it out almost came to blows power struggle and that’s why we played bad!!!!!

There are four players I hope that are not on that transfer list. Lucas, Thomas, Wilbourn and Brown.
The 5th for would be Arturro Bingham. Not sure why didn't get any playing time down in the last few games.

Why i've always said it's more important to have the right group of guys vs the most talented group of guys. Unfortunately coaches can only get to know guys so much during the recruiting process and only a select few schools can really afford to be picky when it comes to this. Not trying to make an excuse for Baldwin, but i've been on a team like this, two bad apples can really ruin it all and the coach really can't do sh*t at that point. With how kids transfer these days and how everything ended seeing a bunch leave wouldn't be shocking. As Pounce Needs Pals said I just hope it's not Lucas, Thomas, Wilbourn or Brown leaving (would probably include Mitchell too).

Why i've always said it's more important to have the right group of guys vs the most talented group of guys. We don't have either right now. We've got some talented guys and a bunch of average guys who don't have the adequate coaching to coalesce into a strong team. You know, like Detroit Mercy and UIC have been for most of the last 15 years. Crossing our fingers and hoping on hope that Pat Baldwin Jr. would commit to play here for his dad is moronic, and at this point it really feels like this is our best chance moving forward. So...a really low-probability scenario that would likely lead to us maybe going to the Tournament one year, getting bounced as a 15-seed and seeing the kid declare for the NBA Draft.

Not sure why didn't get any playing time down in the last few games. I’ll agree but add Vin Baker to the list. I base my knowledge on him from the scrimmage and the fact he was with Boston College, but I’m hoping he stays.

So now that some of you have cherry picked Lucas, Thomas, Brown and Wilbourn as the players you hope don’t want to transfer I have a question: who the hell else is there on the roster that another D1 program would actually want!?
Those are the guys that Jimmy was referring to when he said we have a few guys with talent.
As for the rest? News flash: when you can’t play at a program that manages 10 D1 wins against the 265th rated strength of schedule in the country — you can’t play!
Is it really that hard to be clear eyed about this program after four YEARS of abject failure? We are meagerly talented, poorly coached and terribly administered.

As of last night people are still seriously thinking about leaving I knew Harrison was one of them leaving but the reasons some guys didn’t like the coaches! Two players were supposed to put their name the transfer portal before harrrison I’m shocked they didn’t!!!!!! I guess will find out more later after the kids go back home to families today!
