They were both starters going into the season. They had plenty of chances to be leaders on this seasons team and for whatever reason it didn’t happen. It’s best that all parties involved start fresh IMO, but I’m sure there are more that will use these transfers to bash the staff even more...

Sorry, the reason it "didn't happen" is we had a coach who couldn't coach defense and felt the players were the problem. They weren't.
Oddly enough, nothing improved as we moved away from our experienced Juniors to our Sophomore and Freshmen gaurds. With them as bench players, we still managed to lose 9 of our last 10 conference games and finish dead last in the CAA.

He'd better hope we have a drastic turn around next year, because he doesn't have enough guards blame and bench. And if we don't improve dramatically, the transfers this year will be a drop in the bucket compared to the end of next year. The heat just got turned up dramatically. No more Keatts players on the roster.

Like I said, people will use this as a reason to bash CB and the staff even more.. I’m not even going to waste the time and effort in going back and forth over it. Fact of the matter is, Taylor and Fornes are gone. Kill the staff or defend the staff, CB will be here for at least one more season (probably more). I’ll sit back and see what they can do, because they’ve had some great success on the recruiting trail.

Lol, I predicted these two would transfer when Elmore left. No surprise to me at all so there is no "additional" bashing involved. I felt then and I feel now that players were blamed for poor coaching.

We'll see if the great success on the recruiting trail translates to wins on the court. I'm a UNCW fan, not a coach fan. I hope McGrath wins the CAA next year. I hope he turns it around and is here for 15 years as a successful coach like he said he would.

Fair enough, just trying not to let the Transfer Updates thread turn into a CB can’t coach defense thread. Lord knows we’ve had enough of those this season.

This became a "Fornes and Taylor can't play" thread. I've had enough of those as well.
