Kadary Richmond in the transfer portal

[OrangeDW]

There are lots of Kadarys, every year

Lol. Says the school that has started Joe Girard, Frank Howard, and Kaleb Joseph at PG.

 

[kjb120]

Can we land any of them?

Hahaha you beat me to it, doesn’t seem like we can get any decent true PG

 

[Dcuse]

I can’t link it but he says that he wanted to go somewhere where he could play without restrictions. And also “ One thing I can show people now is that I actually have the ability to shoot the basketball.

 

[samspann1]

I feel bad for Buddy and Benny.

Sure, there's a lot of Kadarys. Maybe we'll get one again someday.

Here is a snippet from the Athletic.

I just felt like I wanted to go somewhere I could play without restrictions and have a chance to showcase my game,” Richmond told The Athletic on Tuesday afternoon. “Like, not having to think about certain things out there on the basketball court. More freedom. I learned a lot of things here. One thing I can show people now is that I actually have the ability to shoot the basketball.”

If this new transfer waiver was the norm 40 years ago, I doubt Jb would survive to a second contract.

 

[Briancuse]

UConn? Kick me in the nuts.

Jbs planning on doing that on day 4.

 

[cuseinseattle]

Congratulations. You have made me more angry. I didn't think it was possible. Kudos.

Cmon man. The criticism for Kadary and the last couple of years is fair game.

I will defend JB on his legacy.
The guy has become more stubborn but what JB did building this program is pretty damn impressive and takes a helluva coach to accomplish.

The portal is out of control. With that said we should have never lost Kadary Richmond.

 

[Orangemen]

This is probably the biggest issue for JB going forward.

80s JB would thrive in this environment. Just roll the balls out and let them play. Now obviously he didn’t just do that, but those teams were more free flowing.

The zone brings in restrictions on how you play, and these kids come from the AAU world where it’s free flowing and show off your skill set.

 

[FrancoPizza]

We’re probably making too much out of today’s exit interview. If KR’s reasons are to be believed then this bed was made throughout the course of the entire season. If you can’t stand how you’ve been treated all year then nothing short of a JB apology today would make any difference.

The only difference between woody and kadary might be that one took the high road and the other didn’t.

 

[Sherman20]

Lol

Jesus, JB -Ed this up so bad

 

[capeorange]

Can’t wait for day 4!

Is it too early to start the thread?

I was shocked and sadden when I got the tweet this morning. Kadary was one of the keys to success next year. I know all you JB supporters say go get another Kadary our of the portal but that is going to be hard for SU. JB simply needs to go. I wish so much Hop took over when he was suppose to. I'd even take the ups and downs he has had at Washington. His players can relate to him they can't to JB. When some of these teams lose you see the love between the coach and players. Their is no love on this team except with is son. He coaches half the players different than the other half. Doesn't play the best players maybe because the fans and media ask him about it? 100% zone 24/7. The doghouse. We can go on and on why this team won't be a powerhouse again while he is still the coach. The Sweet 16 runs are fun but just mask the fact that he has turned the powerhouse he built into a bubble team year in and year out. We will miss you Kadary and I wish coach would of recognized you were the best PG on this team and played you according and fought to keep you here.

Yesssss more transfers.

As Briancuse said, we toss in Benny and Jimmy JR and Julie into it too. Add in Jamie. Hell, Brian too for third guard. Does Sean Williams still play? Good length, could use it. Wouldn't mind the staff reaching out.

How can you possibly give a final grade on this event when Free Agency has just begun? Give the man some time.

He's been putting together winning teams throughout decades of change, I wouldn't bet against him just yet.

 

[CU44SE]

The funny part is, he actually shot better from 2, and the same percentage from 3 then our starter that is a shooter

They have a lot of work to do!!!!

 

[Cusesky8214]

So which assistant is the one heated over the Kadary situation?

 

[FRANKIEFAN]

Yep and we all know 19-20 year old kids are rational people that articulate things well. Building a narrative off half the story leaves a lot of gaps to be filled. I’m just saying that while it really sucks he’s transferring, we also don’t know the situations that caused him to feel like he was being restricted. JB deserves the blame if he acted maliciously to put Kadary in that situation. We just don’t know the full story.

How is a 76 year old that plays his kid as much as humanly possible (likely to Buddys detriment if JB coached him at all and he was held accountable we might have seen 2021 Tournament Buddy sooner than end of season 3rd year in the program) and now wants to add a second offspring to the roster rational if 19-20 year olds automatically aren't?

 

[NineOneSeven]

Yesssss more transfers.

How tall are you?
