Transfer portal watch

[redsteve]

After watching lots of NCAA tourney games......We can use some quickness at about all positions to match up better. 

 

So Carolina (and most of the Elite 8)... had super quickness at the guards on both ends.... could drive to the basket too...and quick 4's. Everyone want's and is trying to find more speed. It too seems to be more prevalent these days. 

 

Kind of concerned about how well, and how quickly our inquired players can/ will be able to recover and get back to game speed. 

 

Hope we can get a couple of big's some how. Seem to be a lot available......but all teams are looking for bigs too.

A little surprised to see Phelia leave Michigan.

I would take her in an instant.

Iowa may have pulled off a coup landing the Villanova star player.

Heard she has a 'do not contact' tag in the portal, and a rumor that she's leaning toward Indiana.  No idea if the latter is true.

[Cazzie22]

More heartbreak for Oregon St.  I would take her.

I'd also snap up von Oelhoffen from OSU

[All About the Corn]

Will be interesting to watch OSU next year.

what is going on at OSU?  Is there any known or reasonably plausible reason for all these players moving on?

No P6 league for one thing.

No longer part of a power conference.  Want to play on a bigger stage.  Also possible the coach is thinking the same thing, although I haven't heard he's moving on yet.

OSU and WSU are going to the West Coast Conference the next two years and then who knows. Big drop from the PAC12 so it is understandable that they have players entering the portal.

Makes me sad that Oregon St. & Washington St. just flat got left out in the cold during the mass exodus from the PAC 12

 

I don’t recognize this college sports world we’re living in anymore

she could see more playing time for the gophers. think i read where Hart has had a history of injury problems. hip the latest one. anyway, best of luck to her----except when they play the huskers.

[caveman]

Does anyone know if we have offered to anyone in the portal?

[whoopdeedoo]

DeeDee Hagemann is going to Ole Miss

[whoopdeedoo]

Beers to UConn?

Ohio State picks up Oregon's Chance Gray

 

things look rather shaky at Michigan. rumors are Iowa is going hard after Minnesota hs #1 recruit and Michigan commit Olivia Olson.

Watched the Nike Hoops Summit on Fox Sports over the weekend and some really good players will be coming into the B1G in the fall. It is not going to get any easier folks.

no........it's not.

huskers have good talent coming in, but, it would be nice to get a break with that "big"

i knew nothing of Lex.........just that she committed to SDSU, and as a fan of the Jacks, thought a very good pick up. however, what a break it was for the huskers that she changed her commitment. i just remember reading that she was playing a summer tournament (or whatever) and held her own against some of the best in the country. she has exceeded my hopes playing for the huskers.

The biggest steal in the portal could be Kiki Iriafen from Stanford.  A little surprised more from Stanford haven't defected.
