The Portal
- Thread starter Halldan1
- Start date
If we look back at last year, I think every kid we ended up getting (Bediako, EHE, Coleman, Tubek, Nganga, Ozdagon and even Brown) dis not list us early or at all. They pretty much all came out of nowhere. Sha with the misdirection strategy??? Wusu did get a little early press because of the whole Posh situation though.
My post is the obligatory “I hate what college basketball has become”
Probably not until after you win the NIT. Bad look to do it while still playing.
Managing this is pretty difficult I would think for a coach and his assistants because as a coach do you jump right away and make offers or do you wait till you know everyone that wants to be in the portal has put their name in? So do you as a coach make offers to the players that best fit what you want and can afford with NIL money?
This would drive me nuts and must be so frustrating to deal with. I don't think you could pay Sha enough money to have to play this game of recruiting in this awful environment the NCAA created.
I guess it is the same play with HS kids.

Absolutely wild that there are a number of players that committed to new schools on day 1 and 2 of the portal…. Certainly no tampering in place
I will do it for 2.5 mill. Put in a good word for me please.
It’s such a balancing act. With limited funds you can’t overspend on a player that on paper looks good but then when they get to the level of the Big East they have difficult years and we have seen multiple examples of that. Maybe get 1 decent player from p5 but the rest will likely be cheaper under recruited mid majors that are hungry and want to prove themselves. Now if they succeed the following year you give them a little more money and hopefully they stay. Honestly the price of players should really go down with so many players entering the transfer portal. There are only so many spots to go where you are going to get decent mins.
Am I mistaken in thinking that players can transfer only once as undergraduates [at least for now]?
For example, NgaNga is here to stay.
They have no choice. Blame the lawyers (& ESPN) on this one.
What an insane era. It’s surreal to watch college basketball teams totally flip over every season.
there is no more "sit out" year....eligible immediately...if its your 1st....2nd...or 3rd transfer.
there are no rules...
I would really like to see Malachi Brown stick it out. A lot of promise to give our offense a different look with his more uptempo play.
Kinda disagree with you here. This is exactly what we pay Sha enough for. He's a favorite son, but he has banked about $5m for a couple NITs. Let's not act like he's making 10x minimum wage.
