Re: UMass transfer portal news - 2024

Embrace the change and get involved :arrow: https://www.themasscollective.com/build-it-together Embrace something that is ruining college basketball and football? No thanks. I’ll live with it if it becomes law but the transfer portal is awful for college sports. The change has happened, whether we ...

Re: 2024 NCAA Tournament Discussion

As long as we're on the tangent... After Curry Hicks Sage did a podcast with Lappas a year or two ago, I did some deep dives on the players in that era, Pugh being one.

Re: KAEO Daniel Hankins-Sanford

^ How can you be certain that Matt is returning next season? He was honored at Senior Day. Senior Day means nothing anymore. Back in the Cal & Bruiser days, Senior Day meant you started, no matter how far down the bench you were. Lately, Senior Day honorees don't even make it into the game at a...

Re: KAEO Daniel Hankins-Sanford

We all know NIL deals are not binding. That's not true. There are different stages of agreements: letters of intent, memorandums of understanding, then full contracts. Patrick at Mass Collective has talked about what they've learned over the past year, how they're structuring deals that incentivize...

Re: KAEO: Jaylen Curry

Curry's NIL deal has been extended. Great news for some roster continuity, especially for one of the A10 Rookie Team members.

Thanks to Pat and TheMassCo for the work.

KAEO Daniel Hankins-Sanford

Better late than never for a dedicated thread. DHS has certainly been talked about elsewhere, but always good to have a thread for future stuff. The Mass. Collective's announcement on Twitter: https://twitter.com/TheMassCo/status/1772309149201617019 That's certainly a good sign that he'll be back in...

Re: KAEO: John Calipari

Kentucky (3) getting beaten by Oakland (14) last night has a lot of Big Blue fans up in arms, and they're not wrong. With the level of talent that UK continually stockpiles, can't lose to a team from the Horizon. Cal is proud of his record sending guys to the NBA, and that's good. But his job as UK ...

Re: UMass transfer portal news - 2024

Robert Davis headed to Old Dominion - yes the same ODU team we whooped in Hawaii. One difference though, they just hired a new head coach, after Jeff Jones had a big health scare on the Hawaii trip and just retired. New guy is Mike Jones, a former ODU player from the 90s, and a colleague of Ricky H...

Re: Marcus Camby

Not sure when UMass changed Sam’s look, but my grandson, now 10, was terrified of Sam when he was younger. When kids could go onto the floor and shoot hoops post-game, he would cry and would not leave our seats until he saw Sam leave the arena. Sam's look has gone through several updates over the y...

Cross had a similar thank you post as Cohen did so I am quite worried he is gone, too. Where are these thank you posts? Very disappointing. I guess that means CBI is not in the cards.
