I don't know that anyone on this thread thinks it should be the focus. Rather, it is a perfect by-product of the current state of college hoops for Syracuse to utilize where necessary. It seems  our draft-able players declare at a 90% plus clip, even if they spent 80%+ of the year off all mock draft forecasts. Good for those players, but challenge for the program to stack prospects. This is a perfect way to deal w unexpected attrition in key places. If we get a reputation as a destination that helps these transfers get the spotlight and flourish, like mentioned above, even better! Helps in years we swing and miss on big fish recruits as well obviously...

On another note. I personally think the transfer rule/ trend is a good thing for the student athlete. If they have graduated, why not be able to experience something different from the school they picked at 17 or 18? We happen to be on a very short list of schools where the grass would almost never be greener for a potential heavy contributor. And if in the the future one of our good players happens to be the 5th guard or forward, or 3rd center, and wanted to play his last year where he could get more pt, change of scenery, etc. Good for them...
