Felt like the guy was coaching years ahead of what everyone else was scheming the past few years. He'll definitely be missed, and I say that as someone who groaned inwardly all the time at even the thought of playing 'Nova.

I hope he retires for real though and not do something stupid like take a boatload of cash to coddle the Lakers' egos

Nur_Neerg posted:Former 5* C Efton Reid and former 4* wing John Camden OVing to VT this weekend, along with high 4* high school recruit Tyrell Ward from DeMatha. Reid and Camden transferring from LSU and Memphis respectively. Huge recruiting weekend in Blacksburg, fingers crossed. Update; VT landed Camden from Memphis, Tyrell Ward is going to Georgetown by all accounts, as one of his AAU coaches that got him to commit to Xavier previously as a recruiting coordinator has been hired on as a full-time assistant by Ewing, and Tyrell's expected to follow him again. VT seems to be the leader for Reid at the moment, hoping we can pick him up as Keve Aluma is headed to the draft and signing with an agent. Imagine he'll carve out a nice European career for himself, super proud of him. Edit: Is it basketball season yet =( Nur_Neerg fucked around with this message at 18:19 on Apr 26, 2022 |

Antonio Reeves is transferring from Illinois State to Kentucky. Shoots 39% from 3, so much needed replacement after losing Grady and Mintz. Also, Shaedon Sharpe declared and has been ruled eligible for the draft, and is likely to stay as a top 10 projected pick. Fans are not happy with the "none and done" player, made worse by his camp being adamant all year he was going to come back. There's a lot of ire towards Cal for it, but he's been told he was coming back all along too, and as a coach do you really pass on taking the top rated player in his class? Cal has plenty of flaws but I don't put this on him. Or Sharpe really, go get paid kid.

Tech gets a commit from Oregon (formerly OU) guard Da'Vion Harmon, who is an OK guard, plus Fardaws Aimaq who is a very similar player to outgoing Bryson Williams. With 3 players already added, that might be all for the TTU transfers this offseason if the team stays as is. But McCullar did declare for the transfer portal, so there are still a lot of moving parts. I've also been hearing that there's a good chance that Shannon stays with TTU afterall? Been a wild ride.

Regnevelc posted:Shannon is going to Illinois. Was trying to figure out what the hell that was all about - so reading between lines, Michigan has a NOTORIOUSLY stingy transfer admissions process. A lot of other schools' credits simply can't transfer to Michigan for ~~~reasons~~~.

I'm not sure admissions comparisons between Michigan and Illinois, but Shannon eventually ended up going to Illinois. Illinois did recruit him in the past, so it's not a huge shock one way or the other. Lot of between-line reading though.

guy transferred to Northwestern named Tydus Verhoeven. Also presumable starting center and Classic Big Ten Lummox Ryan Young is transferring, Pete Nance is entering the draft but announced that if he plays college again next year it won't be at Northwestern. Program is absolutely cratering, anyone with even vague ability is getting the gently caress out of here.

Transfer portal's deadline is apparently tomorrow and there goes Frankie Collins: https://twitter.com/ByAZuniga/status/1520511412275195905 It's really surprising, since Frankie just simply can't shoot worth a drat and Michigan would seem to be the place for that kind of thing, based the Xavier Simpson past history. Guess the rumors about "Michigan losing a guard" were true after all! Fun dude though, at some point he's going to Ja Morant dunk on some motherfucker.

For all you portal-watchers: https://twitter.com/GoodmanHoops/status/1520905568885563393 That means if you don't hear about transfers by the end of Tuesday, you're likely safe, as the quick-transfer is no longer an option.

Yup, saw this after posting. Shannon's scholarship ended at the end of the semester. He asked Adams to stretch his scholarship into the summer so he could graduate via summer courses. Don't see any reason why Tech should pay for his summer school when 1) the athletic scholarships at TTU run June-May, and 2) he's no longer a TTU student-athlete at TTU as of the end of May. Shannon was welcome to stay and pay out of pocket like any other student, but didn't want to spend any of his potential Michigan NIL money on that. Anything else is just sour grapes.

kayakyakr posted:Yup, saw this after posting. Huh, didn't think about scholarship duration/timing! That definitely does change a whole lot, especially since probably extending his scholarship into the summer could end up limiting TTU in anyone else that they wanted to sign. Just goes to show that poo poo's always complicated and it's not just the TTU coach not doing the kid a solid or whatever.

VT picks up 6'9 transfer Grant Basile from Wright State, will likely slot in as our starting 5 for the year. Big need, good pickup, shoots well from outside and should help us space the floor even more.

well evansville just fired their entire coaching staff this morning so they're free https://www.courierpress.com/story/...aff/9417014002/ quote:Two weeks into his tenure as the University of Evansville's new athletics director, Kenneth “Ziggy” Siegfried has made his first major decision. He fired men's basketball head coach Todd Lickliter and the entire coaching staff on Thursday. Stadium's Jeff Goodman was the first to report the move. Lickliter, 66, went 15-53 in two-plus seasons since taking the helm in January 2020. He told the Courier & Press during an exclusive interview in April that he would keep coaching the Aces until "they tell me I can’t." edit in case you're wondering how bad Licklitter is they went from upsetting #1 Kentucky right before he took over to this in like 2 years: quote:The Purple Aces completed a 6-24 campaign this spring with the fewest wins and most losses in their Division I program history. Six players have entered the transfer portal, which closed on Sunday so the timing is unfortunate for the four remaining scholarship players as well as the four signees.

The cupboard is beyond bare and honestly I'm surprised the athletic department had the money to buy out Lickliter. As of now they have 4 remaining scholarship players and 4 incoming recruits.

I mean everyone transferred out when Linkletter came in and changed the entire team to boring rear end big ten tempo basketball. The Aces haven't made it to the NCAA's in over 20 years (1999) so its not like there was a lot to destroy, but it's whatever. edit: Like you're not gonna keep a roster together when you're literally the second worst team in d1.

the real problem Evansville is facing is the fact that Southern Indiana (their crosstown neighbor) is going D1, has 5 times the enrollment of UE, and is on the up and up program wise. They don't want to compete with UE for the heart of the city (yet) being content with their new on-campus arena instead of the downtown arena that the Aces play at, but it's only a matter of time. If they go on a run and get a lucky break into the Big Dance by winning the abysmal OVC they could quickly overshadow the Aces and take the city. So I wouldn't be surprised if they buy some big fancy name coach who sucks just for the celebrity appeal.

This is gonna sound really weird, but the day of the championship, I was having a really poo poo day, had lost my credit card almost magically, had a dental appointment the next day I was dreading, just was super messed, and when things started going south in the game, like when Kansas first went down 7 and more, I just had to stop watching. I checked the halftime score, got even more screwed up, checked again later and Kansas was only down 7 and I had talked myself down enough to watch the rest of the game. But even watching the end, I just felt... nothing. Just was completely emotionally burnt out after the largest championship game comeback in NCAA history. Felt a lot of regret over that, but just couldn't process things until today, when I watched some footage of the final minutes, with the crowd cheering, McCormack doing his thing... and it finally broke through the burnout barrier and I finally felt joy over this year's team doing the drat thing. They really did it, didn't they? Likeable guys at that. Weird thing to share, but I dunno, basketball is cool sometimes. I hope the best for the UNC kids next year though, glad they're mostly returning, because those guys are cool too. Anyway, back to the important programs, yeah, USI could be a basketball powerhouse especially since nearby Kentucky Wesleyan has been in a downturn and people who might've wanted to stay local might go to USI over them now, though there's probably not that much overlap, wouldn't know. Evansville should try for someone who's got some connection close by, to IU or WKU or something, getting some random person could end up like when Kansas hired Charlie Weis in football, which... yeah.

VT gets a commitment from transfer 5 Mylyjael Poteat (Muh-LIE-juhl apparently). 6'9 260, should be the backup 5 this year with three years of eligibility remaining. Most mass we've had in a center in quite a while.
