I wonder if the one time UB commit would want to finish his career closer to home? Akron picked up an SEC big today - so Rojas would be a nice counter to that.

ub2019 Posted April 12, 2022 Share Posted April 12, 2022 This is an intriguing pickup for the mens team. Averaged about 10 minutes a game for BC last year, but his numbers are pretty bad. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This freshman Jones is eerily similar in stature (6’4” 170) and stats (9.7 mpg, 1.8 ppg, 58.3% FT) to UB’s freshman Jones, Curtis (6’5” 165; 12 mpg, 2.5 ppg, 58.3% FT). Curtis with the solid edge in 3P% (36% to 24%), assists per game (1.3 to 0.2), and rebounds (1.8 to 0.7). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Agreed, impressive that he even got minutes in the ACC as a freshman. Just can't ignore those shooting percentages though. Overall I think it's a good pickup for UB.

I don't know, I think a lot of the older coaches at big programs all had programs that ran themselves in a way. Now with the portal and NIL, you have to continuously work to keep your team. These older coaches already put in their hard work to create a name brand and now everything is starting new Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Coaching average age is going to be dipping dramatically soon I think. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

At this point, when you are #2,000 in the transfer portal, are coaches still thinking about new kids? Or maybe it's a ploy to throw your name out late and you create your own buzz to get picked up. Timing of all this stuff is so odd to me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WMU just added Tray Maddox from Cal State - Fullerton two days ago, maybe that played into the decision. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DocCas86 Posted April 22, 2022 Share Posted April 22, 2022 I have been a trying to keep current on data based on verbalcommits.com and numbers are slightly different. Per their figures, 1,446 have entered the portal and 395 have committed somewhere as of my last pull. Here is chart showing the progression. Note that it is not exactly precise as I didn't capture exact date and sometimes verbalcommits does not get the commit info update timely, but about 27% of those entering portal have committed somewhere.

DooleyBull06 Posted April 24, 2022 Share Posted April 24, 2022 (edited) Also tonight is the deadline to enter the draft. So maybe we will get some clarity on Mballa. Or just hear something regarding him. Edited April 24, 2022 by DooleyBull06 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bill Posted April 24, 2022 Share Posted April 24, 2022 Good for Tra’von. Hope he finds a role on that team. Should hopefully compete for a conference title there and get back to the tourney. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
