skrabukes Posted May 27, 2020 Share Posted May 27, 2020 So many of these guys are so finicky. It's ridiculous. Many of them transfer to and from high schools/prep schools, then they go to college and they do the same thing. The times have most assuredly changed, and in this case, not for the better.

Do we know that is what occurred here? Maybe Utah St. changed their mind after seeing transcripts and they're allowing him to leave under his own terms (publicly)?

Maybe Utah St. changed their mind after seeing transcripts and they're allowing him to leave under his own terms (publicly)? No idea. If it was the only time that a guy left after "committing", signing or attending for a year, then my sentiment could've been off. Unfortunately it's a general pattern for many (our signee from this winter as an example). In many cases, I feel as though there's too many voices in these kid's ears telling them that they can "do better" or "bigger" or that they should be "the guy" at the school and the school is misusing them, etc. I'm glad to say that I didn't do that when I committed to a college, competed for that college, and graduated from it. Circumstances can arise that would warrant changes, I absolutely get that, but the "portal" is out of control. While I know that I'm old and out of touch, very few bounced around back then. All that being said, best of luck to him wherever he lands up. Hopefully it will work out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DooleyBull06 Posted May 27, 2020 Share Posted May 27, 2020 (edited) The portal has become the NCAA equivalent of free agency. How will things change when the inevitable comes into play...pay for play? Will there be a such thing as players having to sign contracts that state they can’t transfer? Who knows. Adding to this...currently coaches in big schools aren’t using all available scholarships bc they want the wiggle room of being able to dip into the portal. Just crazy.

Maybe he’ll choose grambling then transfer after not playing and post about how he’s grateful for his time there and then repeat the process 2-3 more times. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wow, all that only to end up in JUCO with our old Coach Jenkins. Probably not the worst decision with all the uncertainty right now, hope he finds the right situation from here.

DocCas86 Posted December 13, 2021 Share Posted December 13, 2021 I was checking on the jucorecruiting top 100 and noticed a familiar name ranked at 15. https://www.jucorecruiting.com/junior-college-basketball-player-rankings-top-100 He is averaging nearly a double / double at E Oklahoma St this year. Even if we are not interested in getting back involved with NJ, maybe there are some players we could be interested in. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
