    2023 NCAA Transfer Portal Megathread

    "And Here. We. Go." - Jon Rothstein, quoting the late Heath Ledger as The Joker in The Dark Knight, circa 2008


    I don't think the transfer portal is technically open until next Mondays, but guys whose teams have been eliminating are starting to announce their intent to go portaling. And we have our first known UC contact:

    Brown University guard Paxson Wojcik
    - 6-foot-5, 200-pound lefty out of Charleston (S.C.)
    - Averaged 14.9 points, 7.2 rebounds, and 3.2 assists per game for the Bears this year
    - Shot 38% from 3 this past year, but under 69% from FT line
    - One year of eligibility left (played two years at Loyola Chicago, two years at BU)
    - Has heard from UC and others, per the below 247 article

    Udeh will be staying in the Big 12 .... TCU

    8 schools with sneaky-great college basketball transfer portal hauls

    https://247sports.com/longformarticl...of--210899967/


    The transfers: Aziz Bandaogo, CJ Fredrick, Simas Lukosius and Jamille Reynolds.

    Transfer portal team rank: 20

    Bossi’s take: The class that Wes Miller and his staff at Cincinnati has landed has big potential but there are also some potential roadblocks. Bandaogo gives them a big athlete who can run the floor, protect the rim and finish lobs while Reynolds gives them another legitimate big who can help on the glass and provide some scoring as they make the move to the Big 12. However, both Bandaogo and Reynolds are transferring for a second time and whether or not they’ll be eligible next season will be dependent upon their ability to get waivers. Not getting those would be quite problematic. As a grad transfer, Fredrick won’t need a waiver. And if he can shoot anything like he did at Iowa — where he made 46.6% of his threes in two seasons — in a return to his hometown, then he will be extremely valuable to the Bearcats. Lukosius is a big and strong wing and another who will be counted on to help stretch the floor.

    I don't think it's very useful or a particularly good idea to speculate about "who would be cut, Prime Time style" if Phillips (or any other transfer) picks UC.
    It is a distasteful process and I really like where our roster sits today. It is not helpful to make such speculation; however, my question is intended to be derogatory to the process and the fact that Wes would entertain such an idea at this late stage for the guy cut to find a new home.

    Ody?
    Newmann?
    Sage?

He used to hang out with Keith Starks. It was rumored that he could take a dollar bill off of the top of the backboard. What ever became of him?
    I think that's an urban legend type thing cause a few years later it was Bostic and a quarter.

    This sounds like a Where Are they Now thread. I've researched this once and need to do it again. Joiner was not tall enough to that get that off the board like that . I think that story was associated with Curtis Bostic and he could do it.

    I am old enough, although at the time I was still green enough to not wonder too much about this. But encouraging kids to go somewhere else can be a win win situation, like it might have been in this case. My point is that in athletics, like life, the right move might be to move on. But I sure hope that a coach that is truly concerned about his players is the person who is doing the encouragement.
