We are in Storr for another great run I have a feeling!!! Go get Payne and put some more of that in Paign and we have a winner imo!!!

Wish upon a star (BU will decide whom that star is), and next year we would potentially in the perfect world have:

DGL
Goode
Rodgers
Dainja
Johnson
Jakstys
Butler
Hansberry
Harris
Moretti

Transfers we would love to have: Storrs, Payne, Davis, and add a Zeke Mayo in there. That is one hell of a team imo!!

We may lose some above, who knows and who knows which transfers but this has some B1G title contender feel to it.

Minny is losing at least 4 players in portal already.

Johnson is going to have a really tough time there moving forward.

So far a 2-PF, C, SG, and who knows if Christie/Garcia stick around. Really would love to have Payne though.

Kids these days....
A few days ago they were talking about sticking together and doing better next year.

Jakobi Heady, interesting player in portal.

Bethune Cookman 6'6"-200 ex Hillcrest player. He can score.

Okay so we have Rodgers, Dainja, Goode, DGL, Hansberry, and Moretti potentially returning. I think we have around 2 transfer risks there, but assuming everyone is back with Johnson and the other two freshman, we would have 4 scholarships in hand and desperately need a PG and a scoring 3.

Storr could be that scoring 3

I am for player empowerment in general, but I hate the transfer portal. It’s changed college sports too far in the other direction.

I think players should get one “free” transfer. Waiting for the day we see a player play four years for four different schools in four years.

The more things change, the more they stay the same.

They can tweak the portal rules. NIL might be beyond getting in check.

I hear we are pretty well loaded with the NIL money.

Good. It's the other schools with NIL money that are the problem.
