Certain to be low. There is no way that $3M is the total compensation for the top of the big schools. I also doubt that the top teams in the A10 are paying as little as $1.25M for their whole roster. Thr amount of money to be raised on an annual basis to fund NIL across all sports at a major must b...

I'll admit to spending way too much time trolling around here for portal news.

One source says returning 5/9/24

Angelo has transferred to Longwood.

So interesting. A real step down in conference but Longwood might be competitive to make it to the NCAA. I would think Brizzi extracted some promises.

Yowza, that's bad. The last two years have been bad. It makes one wonder whether there has been any change to routine, shooting drills, time committed to shooting or anything else since Matt ascended to the throne?

At some point, you start running into a school's academic enrollment policies. There are firm dates for enrollment and withdrawal. Although it would not impact scholarship players, walk-on transfers would have federal student loan deadlines to meet.

My favorite part of that story - police found a box labeled "definitely not stolen mineral fossils" containing allegedly stolen fossils.

I guess I don't understand our interest in senior transfers. The two guys from Cornell, for instance, are both seniors who saw a lot of time on the court. Surely they're looking for something like a step up to a P5 program for a 1-time shot at the tourney. I also wonder how many senior transfers ha...

When will they stop giving an outrageous number of bids to the Mountain West. Ugly start for them. As for this being the year for the SEC . . . Maybe not (oh, and special thanks to Auburn for destroying my bracket). This article breaks down conference performance well: https://www.sbnation.com/colle...

I feel like there are a LOT of players entering the portal and that having multiple players enter the portal is not necessarily a "sky is falling" moment. But I do wonder, at the end of the day, how many of these players will actually leave. My main concern is that the player development and chemist...

Jarvis is an athletic 3-point shooter who couldn't shoot.

I was thinking the same thing. He has the length and athleticism to be a great player. But he shot 23% from the field and 8% from 3pt. I wish him nothing but the best. I had high hopes.

Cook
Kroll
Gibbs
Himes

Why don't I know who Himes is?

I obviously know the other three.

Himes was my era. A physical specimen and a very good player but not top 15. I also think, as good as Gibbs was, not top 15 based on his whole body of work.

I’m not sure if he was one of the best 15, but if I was making a 15 man roster I’d take Ian Johnson. His size and sneaky lefty game could score on anyone.

Best player on the court against Duke, according to Coach K.

I'm really sad about Schulte. He was earning good minutes and showing the potential to be a classic Davidson big. That size combined with that skill is hard to come by. I think the biggest challenge for us in the portal is our system. I feel like Brizzi is just now starting to get it. It's a long le...
