Basketball Transfer Portal Thread

[NCMSTFAN]

He's just saying Jans has had guys in back to back portal classes sit out/quit. The white kid from Marshall 2 years ago and Clary last year.

Anyone know what ever happened to the Marshal kid? Where is he?

He had all sorts of mental issues. He's no longer playing.

Wow. Just saw where in his last year at Samford, Achor shot 43% from three as a big.

I don't see anchor listed on 247 or on3

Are we required to sign a player with issues from his previous team in every portal class?****

We take them because they come at a discount price

What was the issue? Wasn't sure if disciplinary or injury

Shakeel Moore is back in the portal. How many years does he have left, goodness.

I don't see how he has any. He's played 5 years with the Covid year, but he played full seasons in all 5 so idk where he thinks he's getting an extra year from.

Are we done?

A lot of players with no eligibility are entering the portal...just in case I guess.

Its the final step in helping the poor, mistreated student athlete. First came the unlimited payments with NIL, second was the open-ended free transfer after every semester to go back on the open market to extort even more money, and now FINALLY comes the ......ENDLESS ELIGIBILITY. As long as the athlete is signed up for a class on campus somewhere his eligibility will never run out. How awful it was that players have been forced out of college. Just think, from now on, a player will be able to go straight from college athletics to retirement and social security!

We have 4 Freshman coming in (All 4 star players) 5 transfers and 5 returners (unless something happens like Hubbard stays in the draft or Chol, Warren, Paymon, Jones leaves). Unless I missed something we have 14 players right now and can carry up to 15. Looks like we are close to being done with a potential to add another player. Here is what we have coming in

We actually have a really good Freshman class coming in but basketball has changed so much that unless it's a special Freshman like Hubbard was, high school players are an after thought now.

We definitely have some size now after looking at our 9 newcomers all together but we still lack that true PG and that's probably what we add if Jans still plans on adding any more players

You joke but this is how a school like Mississippi State competes. Look at BYU.

Having a team of fringe NFL prospects just stay at state instead of the surefire 3 years and NFL draft guys would allow you to build a long-term contender. Just the NFL antitrust is gonna come knocking soon.

Team of 25-35 year old "practice squad at best" guys who have multiple years of chemistry beat the hired gun surefire nfl talents that bounce every year for a paycheck and get drafted.

Think in basketball if we were to run out a lineup of

Hubbard - Peters - Stewart - Perry - Smith
Molinar - Jeffries - Matthews - Holman - Bell

Yes other teams would be "better" as well. But it'd feel more sustainable to lock guys into hubbard like contracts. Unlimited eligibility and contracts are coming. Just a matter of time.

Marron and white light special at K-Mart!

[StarkVegasSteve]

Are we done?

No. Still want to find a CG to pair with Hubbard and maybe one more guy. I still think either Warren or Chol get into the portal before it closes.

Apparently Sam Walters said not so fast.

That sucks. Achor achor must have been a deal breaker

ETA... Nevermind, thought he was PF
