RE: OT:Scarbinsky - Alabama announces Trevor Lacey will transfer
Ok everyone raise your hands if you thought MB would not be the one to stir the pot....I am not being shortsighted, I am stating an OPINION!!!!
Coach could care less what I think, but maybe your OPINION may sway the Coach one way or the other...
I will voice my OPINION again, if its Okay with MB...we are trying to do something here...THANK YOu BAMA and for MB. NO THANKS....
Whether Lacey is a cancer or a choir boy, dont matter to me...lets continue to build WITH PLAYERS WHO WANTED OR WANT TO BE HERE, if thats OK with MB...

RE: OT:Scarbinsky - Alabama announces Trevor Lacey will transfer
According to the transfer web site someone posted a few days ago, HUNDREDS of players are likely to be playing for some other school next season or the one after that. Lacey is not one of a dozen or so, he is one of a couple hundred.
The only point of interest would be IF he were to get permission to come to UAB, it might be an indication of who it was above the Bama coach that blocked the Knox transfer.

If The entire starting five at Bama suddenly wanted to transfer to UAB and Haase wanted them on the team, then they are Blazers. They are no longer Bama players. I'm guessing you would have a coronary,
Quote:WITH PLAYERS WHO WANTED OR WANT TO BE HERE,
Wouldn't a player willing to leave a school, sit out a year to play at UAB qualify as someone who wanted to be here.

RE: OT:Scarbinsky - Alabama announces Trevor Lacey will transfer
He's a good player and I'd definitely take him. That said, I think the reason he's leaving is for a higher profile basketball program to improve his draft potential. Scarbo mentioned Kansas, Pitt, and Miami as possibilities.

Interesting point. It would tell us if that problem has gone on to the red elephant graveyard since L'Affair Knoques.
Two years ago, I think UAB would be after this guy (and I know little to nothing about him). Given the actual organization now evident in Bartow West, I'm sure Haase haas someone in mind for the Hoopy scholarship already and a half-dozen back-up plans, plus contingencies for all of those.

Not saying it's the case, just : What if he wanted to come here but just didn't want to play for Mike Davis?

I imagine the flood gates will be wide open of basketball players leaving at that den for some time and they will be hunting a new coach next year but I could be wrong.
The main reasons Lacey left is a lack of development since he was moved to PG and the loss of associate head coach Dan Hipsher

Coach Haase already has a list and has been talking to the guys he's interested in. Maybe he adds Lacey to that list, maybe not. He's the coach, not us.

A possible benefit here is that any prospect who may be looking at the school next year may question what is going on & may even decide that there are other places where they would like to go.

RE: OT:Scarbinsky - Alabama announces Trevor Lacey will transfer
A 3* player transfers in and a 5* transfers out, it seems to me that Mr. Grant is doing some retro-recruiting. Uat didn't even show interest in Tarrant and he basically walked to tuscaloosa to join their team. Trevor turns down some of the blue bloods of basketball to go to tuscaloosa and now he's practically running out. What is wrong with that picture?
All of the top rated players from the state of Alabama in 2011 have not been properly developed or haven't lived up to their perceived potential. One 5* and three 4*, 3 went to uat and the other to Auburn and now 2 have transferred and the others are still underachieving at uat. If I were on the UAB staff I would make sure that some variation of that information was in my presentation to local prospects and their parents. Compare that information to the players that Haase helped develop and send to the league while at UNC and you have yourself a huge nugget.

You have you right to express your opinion and others have the right to point out that they think that opinion is stupid. And the phrase is "couldn't care less" not "could care less". Saying could care less means someone does care.

Thank you for all of that valuable information and, by the way, just because someone on a message board disagree or agrees, means nothing, how about that for not giving a_________ what you think!!!!
The day opinions,of my opinions make me do anything but laugh... I promise I will stop posting here, that very same day...
Now I repeat, WITH PLAYERS WHO WANTED OR WANT TO BE HERE, that statement is acceptable when we speak about every sport UAB partcipates in, but because you all want to jumb on MB wagon doesn't make it any less true.. I want Coach Hasse to build this team from the bottom up, thats IN MY OPINON!!! IS WHAT OUR PROGRAM NEEDS doing this period of rebuilding...
Now you may return your lips to MB"s BUTT!!!

Anybody that doesn't believe that Lacey has already contacted or has been contacted by a team, raise your hand.
I suspect that a lot of contacts were made prior to him making the decision.
It probably would be disruptive in our program to go after him, knowing that he would need to sit a year.
