Happy now?

Only if Trice had been 7 foot.

And can shoot threes.

The format on this thread and the recruiting thread is predictable.

1. Make a statement totally unrelated to Jeff Jones.
2. State that Jeff isn’t doing it right or that it’s his fault.
3. Repeat

You forgot O'Connell 7'3" Great JJ recruit how would he know he would grow 9" in 2 years! What a recruiting genius!

Roster turnover is ruining college basketball. It’s actually already ruined it. Pretty sad. Chemistry amongst teams will be at an all time low. It really hurts the mids honestly. Y’all talk about recruiting and all this at nauseum. Western Kentucky is a perfect example. Routinely bring in a lot of talent and what do they have to show for it? They haven’t been dancing for 10 years now. A10, CUSA, it doesn’t matter. Just going to get harder and harder to make a run. Our biggest obstacle is keeping a squad together. Blame the one guy all u want, but it seems to be a hurting everyone at our level. Roster continuity is a huge problem.

Texas Tech 7 transfers coming in. It's absurd.

Curry had 2 pts in WVU 1st game.

Wish him all the luck but he had keys to the team here. Huggins already commented that curry was smaller than he realized…was he just scouted by video?

Yep wish him the best, great guy. Sometimes grass looks greener on the other side, but it's still just grass.

I didnt realize Curry was that personable. Seems like a nice guy. Wish him the best, but wish he was still a Monarch too.

P5 schools tend to get the bigger athletes. If Huggins didn't realize that Curry didn't fit that mold then that's because he didn't do his homework. I hope it works out for Curry. He made the most of his abilities and did a good job during his time at ODU.

It is getting to be that time of the year.

I don't blame him. He is certainly not in the plans. I think he might do well somewhere else. I wonder if Moore will follow him.

I would bet that one month from today, there will be a number of players in the portal.

Good luck Mr. Fitzgerald. Thanks for your time as a Monarch and best wishes.

A LOT

Class balancing is a tough business, especially after the covid year.

Is class balancing really necessary anymore with the portal? Only in extreme cases really.

And we are in a very extreme case, which will lead to 12+ names hitting the portal this year.

Makes sense. As long as Rahne can hold on to our starters and promising red-shirts, we can take weather that
