Penn State adds UNC’s DMarco Dunn.

 

Penn State has made some really impressive transfer portal moves in total.  Stacked quite a bit of athleticism, length, and potential talent.  

While I'm not that sold on Penn State's group -- they had to replace everybody and Torvik still rates their talent last in the Big Ten -- Micah Shrewsberry is finding out how hard it will be to recruit basketball players at Notre Dame with NIL in place.  Julian Roper is the only player he has that averaged 20 minutes per game last year (21.5) and he only played 15 games and averaged a tick of 4 points per game at Northwestern.  The only other transfers of note are Kebba Nije (whom I like, but he's a role player at this point) and Tae Davis (who averaged 13 minutes and 3 points at Seton Hall last year).  The rest of the rotation consists of four incoming freshman who are ranked 59, 148, 188, and 195.

Yeah, Notre Dame is whatever. Shrewsberry is a great basketball mind and a very strong coach. But I’m not worried about them. But they will be solid over time.

I’m also not worried about Penn State but I’m impressed with what they’ve done. Torvik will be very wrong on them. No way imo are they last place with that talent. They are fighting in the middle of the pack, I guess if things don’t click maybe bottom third.

Ace Baldwin, Wahab, Puff Johnson, Dunn, Favour Aire,

Paul Mulcahy (Rutgers) enters the portal as a grad transfer.  The 6-7 pass-first guard averaged 8.3 points and 4.9 assists last season and shot 37 percent from 3.

That'd be an interesting pickup...

No thanks and I don't think we'll pursue.

We're a little light on dirty players, so maybe we'll pursue him.

Trilly says several B1G teams interested.  I'd rather see him move along to another conference.  Then Ace Bailey to do the same.

My take on Penn State is that they have to count on too many players that underachieved elsewhere — Johnson, Aire, Dunn.  Time will tell.

Shrewsbury is a great bball mind but I think he may find that Notre Dame doesn’t care enough about basketball and NIL bball money to make it work.

X and Mulcahy in the same backcourt would piss the whole big ten off.

Mulcahy at UK with his barely okay jump shot and cheap shot personality, paired with a team of me-first freshmen would be must see tv.

UK could use a senior citizen player; hoping this happens because it will be highly entertaining.

Good riddance. I hope he leaves the conference.

Isn’t Kentucky reaching out to EVERY portal player? They’d be reaching out to Lexington South Middle School if 8th grade kids had the ability to enroll at UK.

Arkansas got all the crap for offering every portal kid, but K-State has been just as bad.

And Nebraska.

Arkansas and Nebraska have been doing this every year. UM and UK mostly just this year.

Trilly mentioned Oklahoma as a possibility as the assistant coach who recruited Brown to Louisiana is now at Oklahoma -- but he followed that tweet up by saying the minutes might not be there as Oklahoma had landed John Hugley.
