According to The Portal Report we have been one of the most active teams so far

Says we have reached out to 23+ guards and 10+ forwards.  I was hoping it would have been the other way around, with maybe a center or two thrown in.

Re: 2024 Transfer Portal Szn

I think with our limited NIL we have to go far and wide. No layups without much larger $

Re: 2024 Transfer Portal Szn

While I know to take what I hear on X with a grain of salt, I can’t help he think the list of players we’ve been linked to suggests that CC is at least considering adding guys from lower levels as opposed to previous emphais on guys transferring down (yes I know Johnson came from sweet 16 Princeton and smith from Evansville, but Max, Benny, DBJ all transferred down).

Re: 2024 Transfer Portal Szn

Yes and it’s also still really early. There are all the NCAA/NIT teams that lost this weekend that will probably have kids enter on Monday.

Also as we’ve seen there will be kids enter the portal after they’ve been recruited over.

It’s a smart strategy for CC to try and lock down some of the better transfer ups, but there will be close to 2000 kids enter the portal before it’s all said and done.

Tyler Brelsford back in the portal. 

Seemed like a good kid.  Never really made a leap at Bryant.   His stat rates were pretty similar this year at Bryant to what they were as a freshman at GW. 

Will be interested to see where he goes.

Thought so. Thanks.

One bittersweet last look at the number on his back as he heads for the plane. Will bring back memories of so many opponents fleeing by him. 

I’d say Alf Wiedersehen but - candidly - hopefully not. 

If that ‘s the future of German basketball,I feel pretty good.

Gone for good or just headed home for a bit?

Re: 2024 Transfer Portal Szn

He couldn't finish out the semester?
Benny had some room to grow,let's say politely,
but wouldn't be advised to declare for the NBA draft. Nor be waiting from a call to come from a top EuroLeague team.

Gone in the fashion of Matt Albritton. Gone, baby, gone. .

Re: 2024 Transfer Portal Szn

Jamie Kaiser Jr. from UMD has entered the portal.  Was a one-time recruit of JC before blowing up on the AAU and HS circuits.  

George Mason may have the inside track on this one given Tony Skinn's connection at UMD.

Re: 2024 Transfer Portal Szn

Although his HS PG plays for GW. But I fear we would need a big NIL donation over what we have so far.

Surprised at his shooting percentages.  He was a great shooter at IMG (and Kenner for that matter)

Like Trey Autry, I think he’s a much better shooter than his percentages show.  I suspect both will turn into very good, reliable shooters before their college careers are over.

Re: 2024 Transfer Portal Szn

When considering his options, Jamie might want to consider that we have a coach who takes players like him and turns them from underappreciated to all-conference.

Re: 2024 Transfer Portal Szn

St Joe’s just landed a good one in Derek Simpson for Rutgers. 

Hope we hear some news sometime soon.
