Transfer Portal Thread

Chances with each of these guys RobLewis?​
BHH​
Tamba​
Quentin Diboundje​
Parker Stewart​
Tyreke Key​
Noah Locke​
Justin Powell​
Jayden Gardner​
Qudus Wahab​
"I like their chances on the top three. Like their chances with Key (who isn't officially in the portal yet but heading that way I'm told) No idea on what the other transfers are thinking at this stage. I think the French kid from Mt. Verde is pretty much done from what I was told this weekend and posted earlier." - RL

I don’t want to get too greedy. I’d be very happy w BHH. But in a year with such a hot transfer market I’d be a little disappointed if we don’t land an impact transfer

Same. BHH would be very great but this is the hottest the transfer market has ever been and if we essentially just add a couple of projects (i.e. Tamba, Q) in addition to BHH and then a guy like Key, can’t say it’s going to move the needle much for expectations next year.

I know Tamba and Q aren’t Pember and Gaines, but after getting rid of two guys who were seen as a stretch on the recruiting trail, and then adding two guys who aren’t going to contribute much (if anything) next year would be disappointing.

Guess we’ll see what happens. I hope we’re wrong.
 
I liked the kid from Davidson, but I didn’t really want him anyway

as a Davidson grad, didn't want too see him go to lexington. I wanted him in orange but wish he would have taken a fifth year and move a little closer to steph. Simply sick he chose Cal..

How did you like Davidson. I applied there but got “waitlsted”
four wonderful years but I wasn't a good student. My freshman year was Lefty's last as head coach. Roomedswith one of his last recruits, Eric Minkin, who played pro ball in Israel

Chose Davidson over Vandy and Rhodes (then Southwestern) because of its location, size (enrollment was 1,000 in 1968) ,and great basketball. I was in school while Mike Maloy carried Davidson to a No. 2 spot in the rankings and was fortunate to be classmate of the late Bryan Adrian, one of the greatest talents I've ever seen, and whose certain NBA career was wiped out by injury. during his junior year.

One final word: Dad might have disowned me had I gone to that school in Nashville
 
I like the idea of Stewart coming here. But I feel like he’ll be a very good backup/role player. Wahab + BHH w Fulky back are the pieces that make us a potential top 10 team IMO

Idk if he’d start, but I think he’d get 20+mpg and give us a nice option when Bailey and/or Vescovi are struggling.

I think we will, I guess might depend on your definition of that is but I think they’ll land multiple.

If you’re counting BHH and Fulk returning what glaring hole do we have that a transfer who wants to start and get 30mpg find as appealing?

Chandler
Vescovi/Bailey
James/Mashack
BHH
Fulk

I’m not suggesting we shouldn’t try and don’t need players, but transfers look at rosters, we may just not be as appealing to some of the higher end guys.

So you're telling me the higher end guys are scared off by Fulky, our 2 guard duo, 3 true freshmen and Josiah? Good grief.....
 
Not getting my hopes up, but wouldn't this be something - from @UTMVol76 in the Recruiting Forum -

"Just got to work, more context on what Ron Slay said filling in for Ramon on 104.5:

Says he's known Keon since 8th grade and that his loyalty is one of his most dominant traits. Says' that he wouldn't be surprised if he came back to enjoy the TBA experience and take the wing spot with a true PG to help push his game more. Ron wouldn't commit to saying he would return, but that he wouldn't be surprised one but if he did.

Then he talked about going Bareback.... "
