Luke Fennell transferring to St Mary's

[EnviroSciGuy]

He could have stayed in Australia for that.

Surfers!

He was completely mismanaged. And I give him credit. He was an incredible teammate and bench supporter. He def got a raw deal

I wonder if Todd Golden comes back around...Rooting for Luke, if you watched him in the U19 world cup, you knew he had something to provide this team. On that team he was also getting a raw deal and when he finally saw the court he looked like a great piece to winning basketball.

I really hoped he would come back. Just had meniscus surgery within the last two weeks.

I wondered if there was an injury involved. During the latter part of the season, there were a couple of games when Red cleared the bench except for Luke. He didn’t seem to be pouting or otherwise unhappy about it.

In these days of NIL and the portal, it doesn’t make a lot of sense to pay a player to sit on the bench and take a couple of years to develop. Especially at a program that’s trying to turn itself around. There are too many other shiny objects in the portal.

I assume that he’ll drop down a level and then maybe try to develop and work his way back up. Good luck to him.

I’d love to see him at Colgate

 

[cusefan88]

Maybe he joins Dan E at Pepperdine.

 

[Briancuse]

He should head to the west coast. Warmer weather and easier travel back home.

Probably st Mary's it seems all the aussies end up there.

Or Albany. I’d like to see him join the Catamounts

 

[007]

Siena?

 

[cuseattle]

Probably st Mary's it seems all the aussies end up there.

Maybe Randy Bennett carries that over to AZ State.

 

[DoctorBombay]

And I've got a ton of stuff I want to get off my chest about Danforth.

 

[atlanticuse]

I blame Red for this one
Not playing him as the season went to ish was criminal

 

[Cusefan0307]

He’s the basketball board's Luke Carney.

 

[Scooch]

He’s the basketball board's Luke Carney.

Close. He'd be Carney if Red wouldn't let him dribble when he got minutes.

 

[TinyManInside]

Would have liked to see how Australian Joe Dirt (credit: Steveholt) would have performed if given some decent minutes. Absent any empirical data, it's hard to say if this is a loss or not.

Good luck to Luke. As others have noted, he was a great teammate on the bench.

I hope he kills it there!

 

[JarHeadJim]

I wish we could have kept him. Good luck Fennell!

 

[cusefan88]

Good for Luke. Cali weather will suit him.

 

[Zelda Zonk]

Light it up, mate.

 

[orangemass]

He was shaky. Maybe could turn into a decent player but in this day and age patience is not a virtue
