2016 General Recruiting

[Bearcat_NTS]

why is that alarming?

...because it shows that either kids are being lied to in recruitment (promised things that they don't get) or are too impatient to wait their turn.

I think it is directly related to the one and doners, these grad transfers are going to the good teams that lose players after one year. It's an instant fix so that those teams continue to stay at the same level.

why should college graduates be restricted from going elsewhere? all other college graduates can go somewhere else.

It's essentially created another recruiting cycle with the transfers. So in that sense it's a problem for colleges.

 

[Madman81]

that's too bad for the colleges. dedicate more resources to recruiting or accept that you will miss out. kids should not be limited as far as transferring is concerned.

I'm all for transfers,I did it three times (did not play college sports). I see where Jermaine Lawrence is transferring again. Would anybody want him back?

It can help the non-one and done schools. We might as well take advantage.

I agree. Iowa State and Oregon have built successful programs off of transfers. I wouldn't mind becoming a known destination for talented transfers.

1 in 3 students will transfer during their time in college.

I don't hear anyone talking about that being an issue.

Not sure why athletes should be any different.

Memphis G Danté Scott is leaving the program. http://verbalcommits.com/players/dante-scott …


So how many players does that leave on their roster? 5?

You think we will see anyone leave or program?

In my opinion, No. There are really only two candidates and that would be Quad and Jenifer. I dont see either one leaving though.

I Think your right.

I would have loved to have been able to see how Quad would have finished the game against St. Joes without getting hurt. He was finally playing with confidence that we hadn't seen all year. Could have been big for him moving into the offseason. If Mick is going to play Quad next year, one of two things needs to happen:

1. He needs to drastically improve his lateral quickness so he can guard guys on the perimeter.

OR

2. Mick needs to play him at the "5" so that he is inside the paint on defense and he can stretch the floor on offense.

Jason I don't know if he lacked confidence. He shot the ball more then he should have. He wasn't shy about throwing up shots. LOL
