He has trouble when he's outmatched. That's why he's gone. He will burn it up in that conference though. He just hasn't elevated his game yet.

I liked Sean, even with his flaws and I hope that Noah and JG play great in his stead. In 2 games we have seen the Sean we knew. He's averaging 6.5 points but he has also averaged 5.5 boards. Shooting has been an issue, 5/16 overall and 1/6 from 3 but he has 11 assists in 2 games to 6 turnovers.

Bradley also has a transfer from GW, Terry Nolan. They lost to Xavier today 51-50. Nolan was fouled with 0.4 seconds left, trailing by 1. Unfortunately he missed the front end of a 1 and 1 to end the game. Have to feel for the kid.

Bradley G Sean East II (SO) has entered the transfer portal. https://verbalcommits.com/players/sean-east-ii

How fucking dare the Bradley coach run off East. Unfuckingbelievable.

That would be something thats never happened before, and doubt it ever would. But I'm a Sean East fan, so I hope it all turns out good for him

So there's this: Sean East posting on Instagram wearing a UM shirt while in his Bradley shorts

That can make your head explode on speculating the meaning.

He can't handle A10. He is an America East point guard.

Was this said in jest? What makes you think he can't handle the A-10 based off of his Freshman year last year?

Unless he improved but he seemed overwhelmed in Amherst during conference play.

Trey Davis was a deer in headlights his first year in conference play and he figured it out. Sean East is not returning to UMass but judging a player after one season seems a bit unfair.

Great comparison. I think Sean could definitely be a good player for us if he wanted to come back. I like Garcia as more of an off-ball guard anyways, so it would be great to have Noah start, East back him up, and Garcia play off ball and fill in at PG when needed. Sean had a really interesting style where instead of standing at the 3-pt line and running the damn weave over and over again, he would sneak in and out of traffic and patiently find an open man or look for that sweet little floater. I love it, give me some more Sean East.

And very specifically, that game at VCU. He took that experience and learned from it and became a very good player.
