Re: UMass transfer portal news - 2024

^^
Are the deals you sign with them binding on both ends or after sign could they then decide to transfer say a week, two-weeks etc...later?

Transferred down, he'll get more playing time in a lower conference which will be good for him.

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

This stood out for me- Sean East (Missouri) 21 PTS (7/8 FG), 3 REB, 2 AST Loved Sean East at UMass. Good player Liked this kid as well. Who did he split time with? He should have played more as it was clear he was a pretty good player. I my memory is correct, Carl Pierre, Keon Clergeot, & T.J. ...

Re: UMass transfer portal news - 2024

Josh Coen made all A10 first team, of course a bigger schools with lots more NIL money were going to come after him. The first day of the portal opening is turing into the first day of NFL free agency. It's sad that college athletics has come to this.

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

I watched the last couple UK games and his defense has been atrocious. Maybe he’s hurt or worn out but it’s been bad regardless. Defining his career is interesting. He’s a big contributor to a ranked team but he’s really not that much more skilled than he was as a freshman. He’s dropped some weight...

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

Tre Mitchell (Kentucky) has started 23/25 games. Avg10.7ppg, 6.9rpg, 2.5apg and playing 30mpg but since 1/27, in 7 games he has really seen his productivity drop. I know he was hurt earlier in the season so maybe that popped back up. He has scored a total of 24 points in his last 7 games which inclu...

Re: MAC Teams - Present and Future

Do only the top 8 teams in the conference make the conference tournament in the MAC?

Re: A10 Standing/Seeding Changes Discussion

Do people know that our first game will be against a team that just hit 18 -3's and did not resemble the team we beat here earlier this year? And VCU will only have to beat a 12/13 seed on Wed.. Do you realize that if VCU won last night UMass would of had to beat a 12/13 seed wednesday then play VC...

Re: Game 30, 2023-24: Fordham (3/6)

7:30 is a bit weird. Does it help attendance by making it easier for people to get out of work and make the trek, hurt attendance since the game is later and it's a work/school night, or does it not matter? It was listed 7:30 from the start of the season. Entirely possible they did it expecting tha...

Maybe, but the kid would have still needed to make all three FTs and he he missed the first of the two he took after that call.

Re: Coach in 2025-26?

Why would they pay a coach what Frank is making when being competitive in the MAC can be achieved for a fraction of the cost? Frank Martin is signed through the 2027 season which is two years after they start in the MAC. So unless he leaves on his own or there is some odd 'out' clause the universit...

Re: First reaction: UMass to the MAC

Hurts you, maybe. Some (including myself) think it's a positive for the athletics program. Maybe for the athletics program as a whole, but for the basketball program, it is not very positive in my opinion. I can't even see how they will justify paying Frank his salary to be the head coach of a MAC ...

Re: Coach in 2025-26?

He does make more money if they make the tournament, right? Anyone know how much more? He might just be up for this... No doubt he does bonuses. Not sure of the amount but this was McCall's bonus payouts which in theory would all be easier to achieve in the MAC. I am sure Franks' bonuses are equal ...

Re: First reaction: UMass to the MAC

First reaction is this isn't great for basketball. But Twitter people seem to think otherwise so we'll see.
