There’s never been a peep of them transferring. It was just assumed by some here. They weren’t rumors, they were merely guesses and speculations. Primary because Bertram is a grad senior now who I would have assumed would probably go home since Bertram has not been up to snuff. At all. And I’m not so sure Fagan will leave because he has a big opportunity to get some big minutes if he actually plays well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But never understood to speculation on Fagan. There was never an indication that he was unhappy here. And who knows what his role would’ve been last season had he not gotten hurt.

121Merrimac Posted April 15, 2020 Share Posted April 15, 2020 I feel Smart’s family situation might have played a larger part in his decision to transfer, than his playing time in Buffalo. Brock’s situation might be different? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tee4three Posted April 15, 2020 Share Posted April 15, 2020 Think the Fagan one started because someone a coach or media guy said that Fagan was expected to play at the start of conference play, obviously that didn't happen. Which in my opinion started the transfer talks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Graves is our only real deep threat but is sometimes inconsistent from long range. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gallion was impressive late last season. I have hopes for him. Could be a hidden gem. I share the optimism about Gallion, seems like a real dog who competes on D and might develop an above average deep shot. He showed some hilarious fire in the bench mob last year and when he got in games he was constantly mixing it up. I think a big 2/3 who can shoot should be the priority for our last spot. Transfer would be ok. The frontcourt seems set adding Skogman and Fagan while losing Grant. It should actually be considerably stronger when factoring in the major growth (into MAC POY candidates) I expect from Nate Will and Josh. And I'll be stunned if Graves leaves. Not sure he would crack a G League roster right now with the lack of diversity in his offensive arsenal and lack of defensive footspeed at NBA PG size. I'm assuming Europe is not an option but stranger things have happened. Hoping he seizes the opportunity to lead UB back to the tournament while rounding out his game for the next level. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I, too, would be stunned if Graves leaves. Especially now with adding Zachery. This is Graves team, for sure, and he will have an opportunity to showcase his game (hopefully). Declaring for the draft this year, I guess, gives him an opportunity to experience some things now to help him make an informed decision for next spring.

Totally agree. And if Graves comes back he could be a player of the candidate. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'll take our trio of Graves, Williams, and Mballa against anyone in the MAC. 🤘🏼 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
