So Who Is The First Portaler?

[orangenauburn]

I mean, he is in the process of. The kid can't even submit for the portal the right way


Sarcasm people. Sarcasm.

Bell ain’t leavin’

He and another guy are the two real unknowns, lots movement and activity in the background right now. Maliq returning is a major help for some of the guys they want back.

The compliance employee is really slacking then hahahaha

I think he loved the school too.

That’s the part that people forget about. These players are uprooting quite a bit. They’ve build friendships, relationships, a bond with the place they’ve lived for 2 years. Yes it’s a choice for many to find other places to pursue their ultimate goal of bball, either for more opportunity or in today’s game more $, but in some cases it’s not ONLY the player’s choice.

Tough conversations and tough decisions. Some lose sight of it.

Good luck to JT. I liked his potential last year but the offensive game just isn’t where it needs to be at this level. All accounts put in the effort, which I appreciate.

Over on the football board one of the NYS high school coaches who heard Fran Browns speech.
He stated Fran said he expects all his current coaches to leave for other jobs.
He wants them all to get better.
He feels that if they do well here they will go on to higher positions.

A good boss knows they’ll lose their best, I never felt more proud when my best moved on for better.

Yep! We should always be preparing people to replace us. If it’s not our time to go, and they’re ready, they wind up other places.

 

[JrodCuse]

Kind of disingenuous to say you haven't trashed him but repeatedly referring to the "details that I do know" and how difficult it is to coach him and all the other things you've said, no?

You are picking a really weird hill to die on.

First of several players and several starters.

Several means more than 2. That must mean Judah, bell and Mac. And if someone said bell is not one of them… that means brown is in play. That would not be ideal.

 

[Sbucketball]

So, since these guys are leaving anyways, should we all just post what kind of nonsense was happening behind the scenes that's been alluded to the last week or so? It would bring us one step closer to world peace.

JT is doing it on his own. Like I said the other day, not every player that goes into the portal will have been told too. Here or elsewhere. Heck, most players do it on their own decision.

 

[Red2003]

Brown should get Judah’s bag and then some. I know it’s just one game but that 5x5 is no joke. His name went in the back of every coaches head in the league and prob some nba coaches.

Build the roster from ground up with Brown and Freeman. That’s our strength now.

Oh didn’t mean to imply that specifically for JT

 

[Cuse99&01]

and so it begins

Must have been first player on the list to have individual meeting with Coach Red

He may have made his own choice. It had to be a very tough year for him, if as Red stated how hard he worked, team dysfunction, dissension, fan criticism etc, he may have just decided enough was enough.

 

[Cheriehoop]

I agree with Bees, just saw his post.

If Gmac enters the portal, I hope he takes over for Carm at Siena. I can see Siena's home court, the MVP arena, from my office windows. I'll get season tickets or something and support my guy.

I have always thought that should be the #1 school in that league. It has everything

As an marist alum, I agree.

That second scribbled name looks like a CH at the start… bell?

 

[Mr. M]

From what I know he did. I wish it would have worked out, again great kid. He will likely thrive at a lower level school with less pressure and expectations.

I'll always remember his random 25 point outburst in 25 mins of playing time, early in freshman year against Bryant

 

[djorange1989]

Charlie Brown. Focusing exclusively on baseball

 

[Cstate]

The first name and the forth name appear to be similar in length to Justin’s name. The third name appears to be shorter! That’s all the investigative skills I got

Might be a Q. I think the names go: Judah Mintz; Justin Taylor; Quadir (could be Chris Bell since the others have first and last names and Chris Bell would fit in that space but Quadir Copeland wouldn't); and unfortunately the last name might be Chance Westry (looks like it starts with a C and it's too long for Chris Bell).
