Otherwise, why not use it as a "free live evaluation" of that high-major's bench players? 😄 Could be a lot of "eye for an eye" type transfers in this new environment. Just one example from last month, South Carolina pulled a guard from Murray State and within a week of that, one of South Carolina's top backup guards was off to Murray.

Until Syracuse or West Virginia takes a key player from UB I’d rather us continue to play against stronger non-conference competition. It’s a disservice to the program and the players to avoid it. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ub I would assume isn't one of those schools avoiding it. As now ub should have higher goals of an at large(at least bubble watch team) and getting ranked. Which to achieve you need power conference games to do. But it definetly makes sense for a lot of schools who really go after a conference title in their respective conferences once every 3 or 4 years Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DocCas86 Posted May 28, 2021 Share Posted May 28, 2021 Sorry if you came here expecting some news... had a little time and put together a couple of charts on the transfers out of the MAC. There are total of 57 players in the portal, 31 who have already committed. Here is a view by team tracking ranking of team they went to and another tracking the ranking compared to player PPG in 20-21 season.

I looked into it a bit more - and my graphic as presented is a little misleading. Here are the details of those scoring more than 10ppg last season. Out of 10 players, five players have committed to a team that is in conference ranked higher than MAC, two remained in the MAC, but are on better ranked teams, and three have yet to commit. I fully expect that the three remaining players to improve upon Central / Western Michigan. Based on this - I would say that, so far, these players have improved upon the team that they left. I know Huffman may have only one or two years of eligibility left, but I wouldn't mind adding him to roster especially if we do not ultimately get commit from Blocker (not trying to start any unfounded rumors).

Dabulls Posted May 30, 2021 Share Posted May 30, 2021 I was wondering if someone could explain the recruiting deadline for me? Would it impact our chances on a potential transfer or a commitment from Blocker? Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks https://www.ncaa.org/student-athletes/resources/recruiting-calendars I think this may give you what you are asking. Most of June is considered a quiet period, with a couple of Evaluation periods. What is an evaluation period? During an evaluation period a college coach may watch college-bound student-athletes compete, visit their high schools, and write or telephone student-athletes or their parents. However, a college coach may not have face-to-face contact with college-bound student-athletes or their parents off the college’s campus during an evaluation period. What is a quiet period?
