If my count is right Jordan and Nuga heading out would mean if Pippen, Hamilton, and Beck all decided to stick around we'd have scholarships for everyone. From the start of the year Bennett, Smith, Nuga, and Jordan out, Carry, Sullinger, Rollins, and Hornbeak in. I'm sure there will be more movement though.

Lots of big-name programs would love to have Nuga for a year, even if only off the bench. The only thing that may reduce his offers would be his injury. If not for his injury, I would consider him gone. It must be pain in the butt for coaches, with so many players using the portal to see what's out there. If one or more players leave, then the coach has to scramble for replacements. Conducting practices and game coaching are the "fun" part of their job. The rest must be a real pain.

Found this in a thread elsewhere, the portal has been crazy.
