2022-23 Transfer Watch

I would love to have Ryan Young commit to Rutgers. He has played well in the BIG 10 and uses his body well around the basket and knows how to score. He is also a Jersey guy. Let's bring him home!!! I also would love to land Sessons who I think is from Philadelphia. These guys both played in the BIG 10 and would know what to expect. We can make this happen.
 
One-time SHU commit out of HS, wound up going to JUCO and then Oregon State. Brutally bad shooting numbers this past season but he was a good shooter in junior college. Led the Pac-12 in assist rate, New York native.

 
For those that missed the Knight Report podcast about the Yazeed Haynes commitment to Rutgers this week, there was a short mention of how the transfer portal is now the chief recruiting process for Coach Pike. It sounded like not just for this year. Rutgers coaches wanting to see a bigger body of work and more developed college players as compared to taking more of a chance with high school kids.

It would be awesome. Knows the style and teams. He's a very solid player. Almost too good to be true.

2 teams left out of 9 says otherwise.
The official way the teams are rated is through their seeding. Just casually thinking about it, the Big Ten has mostly performed as expected according to their seeding. We got 9 teams in, but mostly in mid and lower seedings. It's a conference with a high floor and strong middle, but no single dominant team. So how is that overrated?
 
He’s alright, but we need high level creators from our transfer guards.
Bobby Buckets.

But actually I wouldn’t be interested. His numbers have steadily and consistently gone in the wrong direction over the last few years.
 
he is from Illinois and I think they were in the mix, I dont know what Illinois has coming in next year but he would be perfect for them

Will be interesting to see how Pikiell and the staff balance the portal and HS recruits especially with the major NJ talent coming up in 23-24.

Simple. People in this forum think it was the best conference in college basketball this year when that’s clearly not the case. Let of the nation already knows that.

Reload via portal and crush it with Cliff to help show continued success even without Geo Ron and Caleb to these recruits. Then sell them as the next era that can come in and get early PT

How do you define best conference?

B1G is clearly the best conference top to bottom with the most good teams. 9 tournament teams. No other conference compares.

No one is saying the B1G has the best team overall, but that is an odd way to determine the best conference.

For me, the "best" conference factors in every team and there really is no equal to the B1G

But if they are not 5th year seniors or one year players then someone will have to leave for HS players too. Hence a balancing act.
 
Eventually we will get one of these guys. There are 27 points to replace
I think so too. But I think it will be more on the Marcus Hammond, Princeton guards level. Not even sure we may be in the Ryan Young sweepstakes as he could be a really good piece for a NC contender.

My biggest concern with this plan is we need to sign the next recruits (high school variety) this fall, before more games are played. So they will need to be convinced by how we look with portal signings. It is going to be scary if we are only counting on the portal every year. I want some home grown guys too.
 

PG from NY, 2 years left to play I think, great defender for a guard and athletic. Maybe not the same level of shooter as the other guys but this guy is a very solid player
