FYI

Porter has never veered very far from home -- from George Mason to ODU. That doesn't necessarily mean anything -- just throwing this out there. Heck, for all we know, he might actually want to get far away from home for his final stop. But the Twerps certainly are close to home. 

 

Dammit.

He'll probably go to Maryland and be a complete waste.

Yeah I expect it to look a lot different next time. I'm just glad we have a coach who knows he HAS to win next year. Unfortunately for Crean I don't think getting a grad transfer was as popular in 2009-2011. Max was the first and only one we got. I know a lot of people don't like the grad transfer rule but I do. Let Mid Major players go to a power 5 for one year. 

Not to show u up.  Just adding Evan Gordon to the list.  I actually thought the number was more than 3 during Crean's tenure, but that was all.

I like the grad transfer rule too.  Max would have been jettisoned by Beilein, and then what, without the transfer rule?  It is easy to forget sometimes that college is supposed to be centered on what is best for the student, and not what is best for the basketball coach.

It might help that Mooney has some Midwest roots—from Wauconda, Illinois near Chicago and went to Notre Dame prep school. I still prefer Taylor from UE and a little stronger 3-point shooting since that is such a weakness for us—but Mooney is a solid recruit.

For what it’s worth, it is also relevant that Mooney is quite a bit of a bad @$$, in a good way.

What have you heard on that front?

Sometimes a little “tude” and swagger are definitely hidden intangibles that can be assets. I like tough-and hard-nosed players who refuse to lose.

I watched a 7 min video of him on YouTube. Kid hit a lot of tough shots, so I could see that percentage going up with some players around him. From what I saw, let’s go get him! But then again I only saw that one video too. Anyone else have intel on him

South Dakota graduate transfer Matt Mooney (18.7 PPG) will host Bobby Hurley & an assistant from Iowa State today.  
Creighton & possibly Memphis will be in tomorrow. Indiana, Texas Tech & Northwestern are expected in on Sunday.

If we don't get Romeo I prefer Ryan Taylor if possible.
