2022 Transfer Portal Megathread

[RedDog]

IDK, I expect to see activity increase now that the tournament is over. If two weeks from now we’re not closer on some guys I’ll be surprised. New transfer commits have been going slow this year nationally, but that’s about to change too.

Two weeks from now it will all be over.

I know the staff is working their tails off trying to fill our holes but if this is truly the first guy we could even get a visit from, that is very concerning. We are mentioned with just about everybody as being in contact but don't seem to be getting serious consideration from most. I hope that's not accurate and I realize its a very difficult juggling act but at some time you have to close off the list of candidates and close the deal with someone. We don't want to settle and just trade bodies comparable in talent to what we lost, but clearly we are struggling to appeal to the guys we want. The silence has been defening and I am not sure what other conclusions to draw.

Im thinking that its very slow in the decision process for many of these guys because of the tournament just now finished. The portal is full of recruits who just haven't made moves yet. With that being said If we dont see some decisions within a few days give or take then I would begin to be concerned

Ezikpe is touring UC today. He's apparently the first portal entrant to do so.

Ezikpe is still in town and watched practice today.

Chris Dortch on Twitter:

”It's important to note that starting this year, the NCAA deadline for transferring with immediate eligibility is May 1, not July 1 as it was last year. The next three weeks are going to be crazy, but that May 1 date is a huge help for coaches trying to finalize their rosters.”

I would not worry too much about information. UC is going to be tight lipped until they sign someone. As for comparable talent, as long as it is an upgrade in attitude, teachable, and coachable.
