Re: UMass transfer portal news - 2024

We probably have no shot, but I would love to get this transfer from Wake Forest. Something is going on there as he is the third big to leave. They now have only 2 players over 6'6.

Re: UMass transfer portal news - 2024

At least 4 A10 teams have acquired bigs in the last couple of weeks. Richmond got Beagle a week or so ago and these 3 committed within the last few days. Beagle is pretty good. Key is a transfer from Ohio State and might do well in the A10. His minutes went down last year as he perhaps got recruited...

Re: How former UMass players have fared after entering the portal

^ Correct. Tate played for Ron in the 1987-1988 season and then for Cal for 3 years. Cal started in the 1988-1989 season.

Re: KAEO: Rich Kelly

In a way, our gift from BC. 3 years at QPac, 1 year at BC where he didn't play much (16 games) and 1 year at UMass. Yes, he could shoot from anywhere and was a career 40% shooter from 3.

Re: UMass transfer portal news - 2024

Here's one from out of left field, way way out. Lual Manyang, a 6-10 center from Valpo has entered the portal. He originally committed to Hofstra and red-shirted with an injury. He also re-shirted at Valpo due to an injury. So yes, lots of red flags. He has 4 years left. Here's the good part. He's f...

Re: How former UMass players have fared after entering the portal

^ Juice, that's a very interesting question and maybe a difference of opinion between fans and coaches/Collective. As a fan, I would like to see him back. As a third-year player I would like to assume he has matured and figured out what he can do and what he shouldn't do. However, we need a center a...

Exactly what The Collective is for. I know Patrick will do whatever he can regarding Matt. Good report, massprof. Let's hope for the best.

^ The official announcement from The Collective. One more (and a big one) to go.
We are excited to announce that Rahsool Diggins has signed an NIL agreement with The Massachusetts Collective.

Re: UMass transfer portal news - 2024

All 5 Indiana State starters have entered the portal. I'm guessing some or all end up at SLU and SLU will be much improved. Frankly, we could use a couple of them.

Re: UMass transfer portal news - 2024

^ It was Bergeron's D. Remember the cue cards? What an awful idea.

Just a quick portal update. Nothing from us, either coming or going but a lot of activity now that the season is over. Now 1,515 names in the portal.

Re: Coach Frank Martin

^ I can't make this week's luncheon. If anyone goes, see if Frank talks about filling Josh's spot. He can't give names, but ask if he has any potential candidates.

Re: KAEO: John Calipari

How would this be as Cal's parting gift to KY? First, most of his #1 recruiting class follows him to Arkansas. It's possible, but who knows. He sends KY's freshman backup center, Aaron Bradshaw, to UMass. Bradshaw played behind Tre last year and got about 14 minutes a game. He just entered the Trans...
