He would have 3 years left yrs correct. Hawkins has big breakout potential. Would be a big get if we could get him to come here
Pete Nance entering, seems to be some word Illinois has a good shot, may cause Coleman Hawkins to enter.

I believe he would have 3, yes. Definitely could be a star, and would raise our defense ceiling to monumental heightsHe would have 3 years left yrs correct. Hawkins has big breakout potential. Would be a big get if we could get him to come here
I had to look it up on Twitter and see if there’s any buzz and found nothingWhat basis is there for anyone thinking Hawkins is going to enter the portal? This sounds like a WFAN caller suggesting the Yankees trade a bunch of bench guys for Shohei Ohtani.
Well, there’s comments from Coleman saying he will have to “see who comes in” and that he felt it’s been hard to talk to Underwood, Ant Wright has been hinting at it happening and he has some sources, and there’s been some smoke around Pete Nance heading to Illinois. We’ll find out today I think if there’s a real chance of it.What basis is there for anyone thinking Hawkins is going to enter the portal?

Man, thats awful if true.There is this little story

Big, if true! #GoBluewolverineswire.usatoday.com
Mulcahy abused Ryan Young when we played at NW this season. Is Young good enough for Duke?In case it wasn't already mentioned, Northwestern's Ryan Young to Duke.
Collins is a decent player. Surprised by that oneSyracuse's Frank Anselem to Georgia
Also,
Michigan's Frankie Collins has entered the portal... Wisconsin's Ben Carlson to Utah.
Seton Hall's Brandon Weston and Tyler Powell have entered the portal.
Wofford's Max Klesmit to Wisconsin.
(FYI, I generally only post transfer news regarding B1G schools or that involves players many of us are familiar with, or who have been mentioned previously in this forum... So hopefully it's not too much.)
That was Ryan Greer that Mulcahy kept backing down and scoring on. Ryan Young is their pretty solid big man.Mulcahy abused Ryan Young when we played at NW this season. Is Young good enough for Duke?
Kind of surprised by this one. Don’t think he’s good enough to get a lot of minutes there.In case it wasn't already mentioned, Northwestern's Ryan Young to Duke.
The #1 prospect in the class is a center, Dereck Lively, who's headed to Duke. I assume Young is going there knowing he's going to play backup minutes at best. Being a Duke basketball player (even just for a year) probably opens a bunch of doors for his post-basketball career.Kind of surprised by this one. Don’t think he’s good enough to get a lot of minutes there.
True.. From the class of 2022 Duke is bringing in five star 7'1" Lively (#1 center prospect nationally), five star 6' 11" Kyle Filipowski, (#2 center prospect nationally), and 7'1" Christian Reeves (#25 center prospect nationally), along with five star 6'8" PF Mark Mitchell (#3 PF prospect nationally).. They're really inexperienced in the paint since they're losing all of their players who played the post position last season, and someone with Young's experience and knowledge should be helpful.The #1 prospect in the class is a center, Dereck Lively.

I guess the three kids 6'11'' or taller can play multiple positions because otherwise I can't see how even Duke is successful in selling all three major PT. And then bringing in Young on top of that? Smells of money.True..

Friend of mine is a Duke fan, and thinks they'll redshirt Reeves and use Young's experience to get the others ready (and see the floor when they have foul trouble)I guess the three kids 6'11'' or taller can play multiple positions because otherwise I can't see how even Duke is successful in selling all three major PT. And then bringing in Young on top of that? Smells of money.
He’d be a nice pickup.Here's a good combination of a guy we heavily recruited in HS who was productive at his first stop but not SO good that everyone will want him. He did have offers in HS from UCLA and Kansas though who knows how committable those were. And I'm also not sure we have the minutes he'd want. But worth taking a look.
Agree, but I'd guess that he's probably not looking to be a backup. Gueye played with Mawot Mag at Prolific Prep. He's from Senegal.He’d be a nice pickup.
WTF.Has already decommited from 2 schools. Probably will enter the portal after his freshman year too lol
All about offense and 2 decommits before freshman year... does not sound like a Pike type guy. Better off without himHas already decommited from 2 schools. Probably will enter the portal after his freshman year too lol
I lived in DC for grad school. It’s the worst town. Full of pompous politicalIt’s a great school in a cool town with great connections. Pretty much ticks all the boxes to me, unless you’re specifically talking about basketball players who might not care about that?
The comments have nothing to do with attending the school there. As a regular student Georgetown would be a great choice. The home court atmosphere at the Verizon Center just isn’t very good.I lived in DC for grad school. It’s the worst town. Full of pompous political
dorks with their security clearances and a stunning lack of attractive females.
they play in an arena in the opposite side of the city than their campus. And there is no subway stop in Gtown so good luck getting to the arena easily. The campus is cool, it’s a great school, and the tombs is a decent bar, plus you can walk the exorcist stairs, but it’s the pits compared to many other cities in this country.

I'd rather have Muhamed HusaniI found this interesting... New Mexico State SG Teddy Allen, the '21-'22 WAC player of the year (19.6 PPG, 6.7 Reb), has just entered the transfer portal. We probably remember him from his 2020-2021 season at Nebraska where he averaged 16.5 PPG.
Interestingly, his new school will be his 6th school in 6 years.
2017-2018 - West Virginia
2018-2019 - sat out after transfer waiver request to play immediately denied
2019 - Wichita State, dismissed from team in June for domestic arrest
2019-2020 - Western Nebraska Community College
2020-2021 - Nebraska
2021-2022 - New Mexico State
2022-2023 - ???
It smells of wanting to play for a team that can win a national championship every year.I guess the three kids 6'11'' or taller can play multiple positions because otherwise I can't see how even Duke is successful in selling all three major PT. And then bringing in Young on top of that? Smells of money.
I absolutely wasn't trying to suggest that Teddy Allen should be a Rutgers target... I found the Teddy Allen transfer interesting because he was the player who left the Nebraska team before the season was over on the same day that we lost to them in Lincoln, and primarily because his next school would be the guy's sixth school in six years... Hope he has durable luggage...I'd rather have Muhamed Husani
And if by chance a student athlete is also looking for the best academics, Duke and Stanford are often considered to be the top schools academically of the Power 6 Conference teams... Duke obviously has the basketball advantage. (Both schools are usually ranked among the top 10 colleges and universities in America for academics.)It smells of wanting to play for a team that can win a national championship every year.
I absolutely wasn't trying to suggest that Teddy Allen should be a Rutgers target...
Now I feel bad saying something bad about him.Kid's had a troubled life, even prior to college.
When I posted about Teddy Allen's most recent transfer and his sixth school in six years, I'd completely forgotten about the story that I read about him last year, written prior to his season at Nebraska..Now I feel bad saying something bad about him.
