Rumors are he's getting $900k to go to Illinois.

What's disheartening is seeing teams that otherwise would be contenders next year just get completely blown up by the transfer portal.  Colorado, Seton Hall (likely after the NIT), Utah (ditto), Virginia Tech.

Major Madness on Twitter said it best: NCAA basketball is turning into European soccer where there will be new rosters every year unless you're Real Madrid.

Wisconsin sophomore AJ Storr entered the transfer portal on Thursday, immediately becoming arguably the best available transfer this spring.

Storr, a 6-foot-7 guard, was a second-team All-Big Ten selection after averaging 16.8 points and 3.9 rebounds this season.

One of the problems with trying to rely on transverse players that transfer ones are statistically much more likely to transfer again. Doesn't get much bigger than this in terms of a loss

Thanks Barry.  We are too small a group for emotions to run too high. I have enough of rage with the drivers down here.
Barry, when saw your post I wondered if you still did AM running? Exercise always calms me down.

Here's another one ...

America's Greatest Coach has made the most appearances in the Sweet 16 without winning a national championship. That also is a streak that statistically has never occurred before lol.

LSF, as a longer sufferer than myself, I can understand you being a tougher grader.  My two biggest disagreements with you are over Autry and Bishop.  I believe Trey is a complete player.  It is very hard to perform consistently when you go from starting one game to playing 6 minutes the next to 18 minutes the game after that.  I understand that you have to make the most of your opportunities, which Trey sometimes did not, but I see a player who is a willing passer with good court vision, a solid rebounder from his position, a defender with athleticism (who must learn not to overplay at times), and of course, a player who can knock down 3's.   I'll admit that perhaps my optimistic grade had more to do with future potential.

As for James, let's not lose sight of the fact that my grade of B should be construed as a disappointing one.  Clearly, we needed an A type season out of him to be successful.  Nevertheless, given his numbers, his third team all conference selection, and the number of times he helped this team win when it did, I could not justify a grade of C or C- for him.

Thanks Barry. 

I visit and post rarely but have learned to skip posts when the attacks start.

Appreciate the forum to hear about the team and GE basketball.

A10 Champion Richmond had 5 portal entries. Most notable:
Grace Townsend (graduate transfer) and
Siobhan Ryan (graduate student)
Both were starters and Townsend was All A10.

Everyone, I hate being the arbiter of peace on here, but everyone please needs to tone it back. 

Dude, Mayhem, and anyone else who ever feels like insulting someone, please don't do it.  You can disagree, even aggressively, if you feel strongly about something.  You can say to someone that they're just plain wrong or don't understand something.  But any time I see someone saying someone else is a (insert insult here), whether you think it's deserved or not, that's the line I just can't have crossed on here.

There's a lot of bad blood that goes back to the old board, as well as more recently on here, and we can't undo that.  I'll be writing to people separately, but publicly I'm asking everyone to start fresh and if you can't forgive the past, please try to forget it while you're posting on here.

Thanks.

Barry

And sure, let's criticize GW for failing to keep a player who wanted to play closer to home.  Next time, let's just hold them against their will.

Please stop the personal attacks. This doesn’t need to turn into the old board.

FQ, when the trolling stops, so will the personal comments.  I stayed away from making any personal comments practically all season long with the hope that the trolling would stop on its own.  It did not.  Maybe you're barking up the wrong tree?  Why don't you ask The Dude to knock it off?  Or, do you see nothing wrong with the incessant repetitiveness of his posts?  A million Gonzaga posts on a GW message board.  Yeah, that's normal behavior.

Next time we land a stretch 4 like that, it would be nice to actually keep him at GW.  348 Threes made 

Indiana State to the NIT Final 4!  They SHOULD be dancing, but this will have to suffice

Its beyond ridiculous this has been allowed to go on for nearly 5 more years on this site, knowing full well this same person brough the last board down with the same charade of incessant personal attacks

When does it end? when does that person suffer the ban that it took Ziik about 30 hours of responding to the personal attacks to receive?
