"We were in the center ring the whole night,'' longtime Davidson coach Bob McKillop said. ''We were not on the ropes. We were not on the mat. We were in the center ring slugging away, and we just ran out of time.''
Re: Newest Kool Aid recruiting thread
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 have already graduated and are looking for a grad school year (which we can't offer)?

Re: Newest Kool Aid recruiting thread
The new rule has allowed schools like Davidson to take grad transfers. I don’t think it will be the normal practice for the Cats going forward, but who knows.catseye wrote: ↑Sat Mar 23, 2024 9:19 amI guess I don't understand our interest in senior transfers.

Re: Newest Kool Aid recruiting thread
What is the new rule? You can just enroll and take classes even if you are not pursuing a degree? I’m assuming these Ivy guys will graduate this spring.
Did Foster get a degree from Davidson? Seemed like he could and I assumed he did. But transfers to Davidson after 3 college years are not something I had heard of.

Re: Newest Kool Aid recruiting thread
Correct. If one of these grad guys comes to Davidson they will take classes but not get any type of degree. This is my understanding.quickcat wrote: ↑Sat Mar 23, 2024 9:36 amWhat is the new rule?

Yes, Foster did graduate from DU.

The loss of the four year progression at Davidson reduces the allure of the program for fans like me. I always enjoyed watching the players develop over their four year tenures. Sad.

There are 15 schools listed for him. The other 14 are at a level above us. He'd be a great steal for us.

Missouri may play in a better league than we do, but very poorly.
Furman needs to pay us back for Darrell Floyd.

Re: Newest Kool Aid recruiting thread
A very tough scenario for Davidson. In the old days we could patiently cultivate players in high school for a couple years, and then secure two or three quality recruits who knew both our coaching staff and our basketball needs well. Now, when the portal opens, we have to jump into the deep end scramble with all the sharks, many of whom are waving giant wads of cash.

I've never seen him play, but local media describe him as "freakishly athletic" with a "near 45-inch vertical."MrMac wrote: ↑Sun Mar 24, 2024 2:37 pmGot hops, for sure.WildCock wrote: ↑Fri Mar 22, 2024 9:32 pmMoore would immediately become the best athlete on the team.RichmondCat wrote: ↑Fri Mar 22, 2024 4:15 pmDavidson interest in transfer Tim Moore, Jr., 6’6 G, Sr., Benedict(D2).
