Re: UMass transfer portal news - 2024

In one of the most ridiculous - ever- NIL Payment, Great Osobor just got $2,000,000 NIL to play ay Washington. While he had a good junior year at Utak State, his first 2 years at Montana State he averaged 6 and 10 points. This is a absolute total joke for an average player like him. I am getting sic...

Re: UMass transfer portal news - 2024

I don’t we should trick ourselves about the loss if Cohen. He was first team all A10 for a reason. While he had some deficiencies, he was very a good inside scorer who often commanded double teams. I think with the addition of these 3 players we really need someone who can shoot the basketball. Righ...

Re: UMass transfer portal news - 2024

With the team as presently constructed Rashool, Jaylen, Jaeden, HS, Rivera. Who else that we presently have would start?

Re: UMass transfer portal news - 2024

I think he is certainly a starter. 8.1 rebounds and 2.2 blocks per games is better than anyone we had in the categories. I understand that Bryant does not compete in a conference as good as the A10 but he will fit in nicely as a 4. We had no rim protection last year and he helps here

Re: UMass transfer portal news - 2024

If we get Rivera it will be a good get. He would be a 4. 8.1 rebounds AND 2.2 blocks per game. He would most certainly be a starter

Re: UMass transfer portal news - 2024

I think the fact that he averages 8.1 rebounds per game and 2.2 blocks per game would make him a welcome addition. We lack size and rebounding. He would be a good addition

Re: KAEO Matt Cross

Deron Holmes is another who has stayed with Dayton for 3 years. He did not enter portal this year but not sure if he made himself eligible for draft. I would guess he has a more significant NIL from Dayton than Reynolds has from St Joes, but Holmes could have made a boatload ;I would guess north of ...

Re: KAEO Matt Cross

There are a few student athletes who actually show commitment to their school. Erik Reynolds of St Joes never entered the portal when he could have garnered significantly more than say Matt Cross. Next year will be Erik’s 4th year in college all at St.Joes.

Re: KAEO Josh Cohen

Jersey retired? Best player in the country?
He is not even considered a top 100 portal player.

Re: UMass transfer portal news - 2024

If Matt Cross gets $500,000 - all the power to him. My guess is $200,000 or less. Hopefully he comes back because he fits our team and the team culture better than he would many others.

Re: UMass transfer portal news - 2024

3477 average home attendance. Wow!
Maybe this is good considering the post pandemic years 2021/22 where you had to show a proof of vaccination to get in.
In addition you’re giving Matt Cross all of the credit for increased attendance. What about Cohen, Diggins, Jayden,
Curry, and HS

Most Division 1 schools do not make money - much less buckets.

Re: KAEO: John Calipari

I think it is a good thing for both Kentucky and Cal. The pressure on him, if he stayed at Kentucky, would have been enormous. Every time he lost people and media would be commenting on him being on the hot seat etc. At Arkansas there will be pressure and expectations but far less. I think Kentucky ...
