Filipowski to Duke.

Maryland Terps Big 10 Defensive POY, Darryl Morsell, going to Marquette.

Great point about the impact on current HS recruit (this year,and next). As for the Last Chance U option, we might need about 50 of those. Plus, going to a JuCo would be a step back for many/most of these Portal guys.

Makes me wonder why any player on scholly who was currently on a roster would ever take a wild flyer on finding a "match." I fully understand the Portal for those kids who could logically expect interest (like Chris and Earl, in our case); I'll never understand why the rest would take this...

Wow, 1429. What percentage will not link up with a new "opportunity" before the next season starts? Gotta be a very large number, no? What happens to those kids? Go back to the school they entered the portal from (assuming the program wants them back and has a roster spot/scholly)? Career over?

Two would be better, assuming the quality we need is available.

Given where he grew up in rural far southwest Virgina, wonder why he didn't go to Virginia Tech, or maybe Tennessee? "Well traveled" is an understatement when it comes to Mac. Georgetown, a Catholic school in DC seemed an odd choice to say the least, then Texas Tech out on the Staked Plains of...

Do we have any "big dollar donors" who care at all about basketball? Or, should I ask, do we even have any BIG dollar donors other than Lemonis and the Sofers? You're right that there is zero pressure on the Administration/Ath Dept when you don't have that kind of alumni leverage. Given that...

Paolo Coelho, come on down!

I'd be leery of Fordham transfers. They've been a bottom of the barrel program since forever (back to Charlie Yelverton around 1970). Opposite effect of bringing kids on from "winning," well run programs.

A lot of basketball "experts" see Timberlake's strong physical build, court vision, passing and defense as the strengths of his game. We didn't see that defensive prowess at UM; what we did see was that flat jump shot that rarely went in. How do you play on the perimeter at SG or SF with that...

Is that South Carolina or USC in LA?

Are we gonna see 100 Portal signings a week over the next couple months? That's what it'll take to whittle down that HUGE current Portal number by July. We see already where "if you snooze, you lose," with the Fatts Russell signing at Maryland (Lykes left holding the bag there). Many of these...

Is there a magic date by which Portal players must have decided/signed?

A real slap in the face to the Hoyas. Not only does their linchpin player leave, but he goes to the local rival Terps.

Williams leaving UNC should help other schools recruiting Aidoo. UNC was basically recruiting Aidoo as a backup 5 to Bacot in 2021-22, so I'm wondering how seriously Jonas was looking at Carolina anyway.

Has two years of eligibility left. Supposed to be a monster on the glass, old school PF/inside scorer, who gets to the FT line a lot (and hits his FTs).

Thanks for that, Incane. Right after he made the Big East All Tourney team and dominated inside all season. Makes little sense.

Wonder why he's leaving Georgetown after his (and the team's) star turn in winning the Big East Tournament? Strange time to leave a program. Pat Ewing being a Center and all.

Qudus would go a long way toward our gaining an inside presence. He still has offensive upside as well.
