NCAA MBB Transfer Portal

[RaceToTheTop]

Bryson Williams (UTEP) enters the portal.  6'8" power forward.  Four year starter (two at Fresno State, two at UTEP) who has scored over 1,600 career points.  After being a strictly inside player at Fresno State, has somewhat developed at outside game (has made 50 of 155 (32%) the past two years).  Averaged 15.1 points and 7.4 rebounds last year after averaging 17.8 and 7.2 the year before.

So much excitement the last few weeks with coaches and players staying, I need something to calm my addiction! Ready for coaching staff to get us a stud!

Agree, keep looking but all I’m seeing are these non portal comments. Seeing commitments, want to see some IU

I am hoping that they get a player with at least 2 yrs eligibility left, unless it is some athletic 6'7"+ lights out shooting stud, of which, I don't see in the portal, currently.

They also picked up Utah's shooting guard Alfonso Plummer.  Averaged 13.6 ppg and shot 44/38/82.

I think we are starting to get to the point where the portal consists mostly (not totally) of guys who would come in and serve a role but not be looked on to be huge difference makers.  I think right now the best names that have been associated with Indiana are Miller Kopp and DeVion Harmon, but we know a lot of high profile teams have contacted Harmon.  Kopp might be the best fit -- he probably fits the profile of combo forward that Woodson was talking about.  Still might leave us a little short handed down low, though, with Brunk's departure.

It'll be interesting to see two guys go against each other that have battled in practice.. 

Both with something to prove.

Strange, IMO.

Edit:  did Holtmann recruit him at Butler?  If so, makes sense.

He played for Holtmann at Butler 

[RaceToTheTop]

Since it was thought he would be Penn State bound, have to say Shrewsbury really seems to be striking out in the transfer pool.  Don't think he's brought in anyone and has lost quite a bit.

I can't wait to see Trayce and Race get the ball in space in Columbus...

[OldBuddy67]

Maybe Liddel is staying in the draft. I’d gladly take facing Brunk next year over Liddel twice next year!

[Dalton26]

I hope TJD absolutely dominates him. 

[fwgreenway]

Best of luck to Joey. To me it's disappointing he went anywhere in the BIG. Makes total sense having a prior relationship to coach Holtman. Close to home must play into the decision as well as potential playing time?

I don’t think you’ll be holding your breath too much.

I was really shocked to read some Ohio State forums where people were so down on Coach Holtman.  They disliked Brunk coming to Ohio State and blamed it on Holtman's awful recruiting.

I was surprised, but I was reading pretty much the same thing.  It filled their last roster spot and they basically said that it showed his 'failure to land Efton Reid' (top 25 2021, 6'11" center).  While I know the sentiment of a fan base to think they are going to get the recruits they want, I think a little slack needs to be given to Holtmann by them because he HAS succeeded.
