Bishop. With the new guys his playing time will be cut. 

Lol.  Amazing how much some of you hate on the kid.

Just because he is the best player we have now.  Just noting this instability of rosters around the country is just plain insane. Very nerve racking.  I just don't know how you can build a good program if the foundation you have can disappear in an instant.  How can you coach in such an insane environment. Surprised that  not more and more coaches are not quitting.

Kevin Easley (@kevineasley__34) tells me that he just spoke with George Washington. TCU transfer who averaged 4.5 PPG. 6'7 forward.

Worth noting that he started at UT Chattanooga, where he was excellent as a freshman. He averaged 14.2 points as a freshman and 6.7 boards, and shot 39% from three.  Even had 21 points, 7 boards at Michigan as a freshman.  He sat out a year at TCU and I’m not sure what happened there - but TCU had 7 guys hit the portal this year.   

He could be an excellent pickup, especially if he clicks from three again.

No word yet but I would be disappointed if Tyler Brelsford moved on.  I feel he has the potential to be a prolific scorer even coming off of the bench in short spurts.  He showed a fearlessness that you like to see from freshmen (contrast this to Lincoln Ball who looked to be a well-rounded player but who was just too tentative to assert himself many times).  With the influx of guards joining the program along with the hopeful return of Amir Harris, I would understand if Tyler felt he was the odd man out.  I can easily foresee Tyler succeeding at or around the A10 level if he was in the right situation (i.e. not the 5th guard on the team).

George Washington G Tyler Brelsford (FR) has entered the transfer portal. verbalcommits.com/players/tyler-…

This is the second wave schools are going to see. The results of talent transferring in.


Well 2 scholarships available

Agree mayhem that I too generally feel uneasy about "recruiting over" someone however it seems like coaches almost have to do it when anyone can decide to transfer at a moments notice.  You almost have to hope you can keep both players than lose one late in the spring and have to fill in with some unknown unsigned HS recruit or a picked-over transfer portal mercenary.

I liked Tyler. Too bad.

This is a two act play gentlemen. The second act is underway but not finalized and may take a week or so. The Tyler departure was a surprise but every coach these days is prepared for surprises.

GWRising, thank you for posting the information. I am sorry that Tyler is leaving, but I hope he finds a great fit and plays a lot of minutes.  I feel he has the potential to be a real contributor.  If you were to speculate, do you believe the second act would involve a player coming into the program, and, if so, what position would that player play? 

Whatever school gets Tyler is going to get a very good player. He could have been a really good bench player here, but that’s not really a thing anymore and I understand why he left. In this era, quality depth will be hard to build and nearly impossible to retain. 

Wish Tyler the best, and could easily see him becoming a big time scorer somewhere else, like Jordan Roland.
