Transfer Thread

The P12 wasn't good this year though after the top 3 teams. And it's not like the P12 had a good tournament this year either, two teams underperformed, and one performed according to seed line. MWC had a bad tournament, no doubt, but all the teams should have made it, IMO. When CU and Oregon finish 4/5 in a P5/6 conference, the depth of the league isn't good. Heck the MWC had a better winning % in OOC play than the P12 did this year. Which is saying something because the bottom of the MWC is gross. Lol.

I appreciate that at least you believe these MWC teams are good. Most people will agree they wouldn’t be able to perform in power conferences and still argue they deserve an at large bid. You’re wrong about the MWC being better than the PAC but at least you really believe it.

Despite the PAC underperforming, those 4 win tournaments wins are more than the MWC has had since 2015. This shouldn’t be a shock. Most players play in the MWC because they weren’t recruited by PAC 12 schools or transfer there from PAC 12 schools because they weren’t happy with their playing time.

If we are going to argue the MWC is better than the PAC, let’s hold them to the same standard

Top to bottom I don't think the MWC is better than the P12. The P12 is better at the top and the bottom of both respective leagues. I'm simply arguing that teams like Boise State and Wyoming would finish in the top half of the league. Which I don't think it far fetched at all. Oregon's combined predictive metrics avg out to like 70 and Colorado's avg out to like 77. Boise State's avg out to 47 and Wyoming's avg out to 85. Both Boise State and Wyoming have much better resume based metrics. I get that the MWC conference schools don't get the same caliber of player that the P12 schools get. Despite not getting a win in the tournament it was still a really good year for the league. If conferences like the P12 and ACC want more respect during the course of the season, they need to do better OOC. After the top 3 in the P12 not one other team had a good OOC resume. So going 12-8 or 11-9 in the league doesn't really mean much.

So you would have put Dayton and A&M in instead, or which two teams, if you take those two out?

I just don't think there's any justification for leaving out a team that was 20-6 against the first three quads. That's really good. On top of winning the league title and tournament title like Boise State was.

Like I said, Wyoming is debatable. I would have had them in. Are they more talented than teams like Oregon, Wake Forest, Texas A&M, no I don't think so, but those teams all had warts on their resumes as well.

Yeah, I think the Gophers could have won 20 games in the MWC with this year's roster, but that isn't sniffing the tournament though.

Honestly toss DePaul in.

They kick ass every year in the non con!!!
 
Sounding like Curbelo to SJU.

Such a hilariously perfect fit. A team that plays chaotic with absolutely no discretion, gets the most chaotic ill advised player the game has ever seen.
 
Toussaint to WVU

I like that fit for him
 
Noah Carter went to Mizzou

Damn. Really hoping he was gonna give VT a chance. Had a visit scheduled and everything
 


Third time the charm to come to the Gophers? I'd still take him given his struggles last season.

Truth. And Zona needed a no call to beat TCU. Pac 12 needs to get back to winning nattys! This is the conference of John Wooden ya know!
 


Good pickup for PSU. Probably a better player than Sessons who is transferring out.
 



Wonder if he actually stays in college or just goes to the G League
 
Tyreese Hunter into the portal. Pretty big transfer news.

Seems like this is strictly about getting that bag. So highest offer gonna win on this one. Rumors are UNC with lot of interest.

Meh. Guess it kinda depends on your guys needs

But personally the greatest day of the offseason so far was when his list went from 5 to 4 teams and Marquette was taken off it.

Fuck yes!! Him and Battle make a pretty fucking good frontcourt.

If they start as the front court. Thats a brutal defense though haha.
 


Starting PG on a top 120 team. I'll take it. Gophers should be pretty improved next season.
 
Jake LaRavia #30 on CBS' latest mock draft. meanwhile, UNC has a double double machine w/o a chance in hell of making the NBA, so naturally he's coming back to school

i can't believe how much the basketball gods hate Wake Forest
 
Tshiebwe returning to Kentucky. Wilbon said on PTI that the scuttlebutt is that he has a $2 million NIL deal waiting on him if he returns to Kentucky.
 
800K for Nigel Pack? Lmao.
