Re: UMass transfer portal news - 2024
LS, we have no idea why guys leave and in most cases we'll never find out. Josh will never make the NBA and he might only be a backup in Europe. If someone offered him a bunch of $$, no idea how much that might be, it would be awfully tempting to take it. Again, don't know why he entered the portal...

Re: UMass transfer portal news - 2024
It's a fair point, but you are thinking in the moment. This season will be little more than a blip if they cannot follow it up with a final push over the top to a post season tournament. Yes it would be a blip, but you're already throwing in the towel on the next season? I don't see any reason why ...

Re: UMass transfer portal news - 2024
Yeah…he made all A10, UMass got 20 wins….and a seat in front of the TV for the post season. At the end of the day/season UMass did no better with him than it did without him. Interesting comment, by saying UMass did no better this season you are saying that you mostly judge a season on post season ...

Re: UMass transfer portal news - 2024
Where Cohen ends up will be interesting…I’m guessing FM trys to lure more of a defensive/athletic/rim protector at the 5 and be more of a perimeter scoring/driving offense. I can't remember exactly how he said it, but last off-season Frank said something to the effect of he wanted to get a back to ...

Re: 2024-25 Season
Big fan of Jayden. And he does move the ball around. However. He can’t shoot and teams in the second half of the year teams wanted him to shoot. He can shoot, and teams were defending against his shot because when they let him get open 3's earlier in the year he was making them at a high percentage...

Re: UMass transfer portal news - 2024
I'm gonna see who comes in before I weep about who leaves. Good luck to them all. I'm pulling for the guys who stick it out and play for UMass, not for the biggest bag. I trust that Frank reloads and we are still very competitive. He did it last year Floyd, Umass is fucked for the short term. You s...

Re: UMass transfer portal news - 2024
Pitino says he’s bringing in 7 plus players this year ! It’s like fantasy football but worse ! Buy the best team you can every year ! Bye bye for any mid major high aspirations! Mid-majors are doing well thus far. It's hard for them to keep the very best players, but it's easier to recruit contribu...

Re: A10 Awards 2023-24
Selfishly, I would prefer that our players get less recognition than they deserve, only because the more recognition they get, the bigger of a target they become for other teams to poach.

Re: 2018 Recruiting needs and potential recruits
I don’t know for sure. I wouldn’t put it passed Tony to have reached out as school started in September. Like I said, the timing could be coincidental. It is very close. UMass offered Tre way back in 2017. Tony was Tre’s coach for those two years. What's evident to me, is that McCall didn't refuse ...

Re: 2018 Recruiting needs and potential recruits
I think the broadcaster had it wrong. Buie committed to Northwestern in September 2018, long before Bergeron was on the scene at UMass. As I recall being told from that time period, UMass did not pass on Buie, he passed on UMass. This is correct I assumed the timing I was reading was correct. Berge...

Re: 2018 Recruiting needs and potential recruits
But the much bigger whiff is Buie. Buie cashed in on the COVID-bonus year, and has racked up over 2100 points in the process. Their Senior Night broadcast worked in a mention of how UMass pulled his offer. https://twitter.com/CurryHicksSage/status/1766992975643488681 Someone in UMassTwitter said th...
