There's gotta be some big guys coming in or you'd think all the roster guys like Mason & Majok would have stuck around if there was pt available. Crazy to think last year we added 4 guys 6-10 or bigger and none are still here.

^ wow, that's interesting 69, thanks. Be interesting to see what happens to those 28, and if they continue playing somewhere

I wonder if I can get some crack sharp designer to replace the UMass Tower Library with the Prayer Tower at Oral Roberts on my collective sweatshirt? That’d be pretty cool. I wonder how many of those were actually sold. Mine is likely off to Goodwill.🤣 Keep it. When he develops into an NBA legend, ...

How many guys actually come back? The transfer portal is closed, so 6 are coming back from last year's team. Diggins Ndjigue DHS Curry Worthy Foster Actually I meant how many guys enter the portal but then return to their original team? Is there even any data out there to gauge a sense of % of play...

How many guys actually come back?

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. Yeah, and I think there's kids out there ...

A this point I simply don’t care. I wish him well, but he he’s gone. My interest continues to be success for UMass basketball. I’d rather see UMass in the postseason without Matt and/or Josh than to have UMass miss it again with them. No one has to agree with me. That just the way I feel. YUP, me t...

Good points Juice, no doubt. I just feel like we're receeding.

^Correct. If you want to believe what Bamford said during the MAC presser, we are significantly ahead of most, if not all, MAC teams in NIL. If you subscribe to the NIL or bust strategy, we should be a conference leader. Different pool of kids, no? Higher level talent wants to play in better confer...

She's got some big guns on her. Probably take RoadTrip down in an arm wrestling match

^ can barely keep kids here now, why would they want to come play in the MAC? Kids playing for a coach or a school is fading. It's all about the $$ now

How many times you think he'll get married?

I think he's gone. If he really wanted to stay at UMass, I think he would have decided by now. Staying seems like the security blanket if he can't get a bigger NIL deal. Can't blame him I guess in this climate Floyd, maybe I'm crazily optimistic. I'm starting to think that if he doesn't find a plac...

Deadline is actually a good idea. Gotta move on with setting the roster. Can't be held hostage to waiting There are built in deadlines with admission, acceptance, and NCAA rules. No need for the collective to arbitrarily set new deadlines. Roster decisions are made by the coaching staff, not The Co...

Never had one. Serious question tho, what's so good about em?
