I dunno. Top junior player at Kent or Miami, bright future, potential pro career, has an opportunity to go to OSU or Ky for a year and get their name out there OR go to OSU or Ky and sit behind the 4star frosh who just signed. If I’m that guy I’m thinking long and hard before I make that switch from being THE man to being a man. Look at MAC players who moved up-how many succeeded? Two WMU guys had mixed results-one got booted from Illinois, IIRC, the other did well at Xavier but didn’t set the world afire. BG’s guy did well at OSU. Can’t think of many others.

Wright, Taylor and Fletcher all did well at UT after stepping down from P5 conferences.

Look, when Duke, Carolina, Kansas, Kentucky and the like are taking transfers then mid-majors are cooked. The get the one-and-dones. then swap them out with physically mature mm-transfers with lots of game experience. Win/Win.

Mid-majors are left scrambling, practically killing any hope for a coach building then sustaining a solid program.

Emmert is a joke of a NCAA president letting this happen ... all the while claiming he is 'Cleaning' up the sport. He's just like Trump, a crook in plain site pointing at everybody else.

Please, no politics. Take that elsewhere. Thanks.

All for that!

The more I think about this if it passes I see Mareon being the starting point guard for OSU next season. But it is what it is. Hope I am wrong on this.
