Sanders Gone

From New York State player of the year to Burger King Eater of the year! Have another cheese burger Jaquan and say goodbye to the open 2G spot!
Guys. let's not disparage our players. We had a good group who accepted their roles this year far outperforming even the most optimistic of us.
Wish them well and move on.

Why would anyone buy a player’s team jersey? You are only gonna get one year out of it.
NCAA has ruined College sports.
After being a Pirate season ticket holder for 30 years it is getting really hard to root for this team…or any other.

Making posts about a player’s physical attributes is not cool. We never know what is going on with someone so should keep our mouths shut
Really thought he was going to step out this Season -- hope he does next Year wherever he lands
I wish him success in all his endeavors!
So you shit talk Kadary and now this?
First I thought you were just not smart and didn't understand basketball, now I see that you're really just a troll.
Ignore button for you!
I was never a big Sanders fan but wow, that’s way out of line and uncalled for. Not cool.
Not necessarily gone, just portal. Some of guys come back when they realize what they have already compared to other offers.
Super A**,
I hope you are a troll and not a Seton Hall fan. We are far better off without so called fans making comments like that.
SPK,
Thank you for calling this individual out!

Said it before will say it again, those awards are not what they once were and lots of agendas! He wasn’t even the best player on his team !!
was hoping to see Sanders develop into a bench threat for next year’s squad. Still think he can if he decides to stick around
I think he may do well some other place and wish him good luck.
Personally I hope he sticks around, been watching the game long enough to know some guys develop in a big way as Juniors and Seniors. Thought he was a decent player with an upside.
agree SHallguy2 , hate to see both he and EHE leave after learning of Sha's expectations and process. Some are truly late bloomers. continuity and depth in a NIL world are key to success for a team like ours. Never gonna have significant Nil and a revolving door of MacDonald"s all stars
No, Ed O'Bannon and the lawyers who filed the antitrust suit against the NCAA and the lawyers who continue to insist on free agency for these amateur athletes have created this mess IMO. NCAA is a paper tiger now. Even lost on its attempt to have players sit out a year before transferring.
Not the worst thing. He could shoot the 3 ball but didn't do anything else that well. He's probably better suited at a mid major, low D1 school. Wish him luck
It's amazing that people still think this is the NCAAs doing, not understanding that it was the court system that created this.
Totally agree. I’m sure we would take the “former” NCAA with its oversight and regulations from years past instead of the stripped down version the courts have created with no say in a lot of things. Except for the tourney selection process-they are still as horrible as ever with that one!
I know, it's frustrating when I hear folks blame the NCAA. The NCAA has been in handcuffs for some time now because of this antitrust free-for-all. Free for everyone but the fans. We now have to pay for this absurdity.
Will be thankful to him for his great play in the NIT and that’s how I’ll remember him.. Could have been better on D and been in better shape, but he always played smart. Rarely did I see him make a play that was bad bball IQ. Still think he could have played slightly bigger role on this team (if not for anything but to keep some of our first 6-7 fresher) throughout the year if he was given the latitude to grow, especially early on. Such is a season and such is the reality of college ball to where we are now. Good luck to him!
That was coming a mile away, the O'Bannon case started in 2009. The NCAA was making 80 million dollars a year for their NCAA Football game alone literally selling a video game with every college athlete listed with numbers just did not have their names (this does not count the amount of money they were making off the NCAA basketball). They got so greedy beyond TV rights that it kicked off the case that led to NIL.
They were making money hand over fist taking advantage of these players likeness. The conversation around paying athletes has been going on for decades. They put their head in the sand and allowed it go through a legal process instead of innovating or being the leaders in this transformation of college sports they know was coming. But they do not care about the quality of the sports or making a difference when they make billions off of TV rights while operating as a non-profit which is just comical. You cannot get mad at the legal system for properly applying the law, the NCAA has been an abject failure other that at making money for themselves.
The NCAA is made up of its member institutions. Those institutions or the most powerful conferences made up of those institutions could/should have taken a more enlightened approach. They didn’t but they hide their individual responsibility under the banner of the NCAA.
Can you imagine having the audacity to refuse the players the ability to profit off their own name, image and likeness while using those player's names, images and likeness for profit?
