Looking for some to lean on a big when we face one.

George Leach-like option would be nice.

So does this mean the staff knows someone is leaving?

If we are making a kid leave, you go after the kids who transferring out of Arizona State. You don't force people out for fringe rotation guys.

Young man is out of Atlanta, guessing there is a Coach Rosemond connection at some point?

I agree, love me some post depth along with 2yrs of eligibility.

What confuses me is why did Brunk leave then? This guy looks like a pretty traditional back-to-the basket big.....like Brunk. Did the staff nudge him to go? Did he yearn to reunite with Holtzman? I don't get it why he'd leave if there are clearly minutes available. Hard to believe he wasn't a good team-mate. 

Have we gotten a good read on who initiated that move?

Starting believe there might be a transfer out, or someone is thinking about it

I’m lowkey pretty glad Crean isn’t here for the expanded Transfer Portal world. Seems like a very bad fit.

It's going to be interesting. I know he did land a pretty good portal transfer. 

A buddy of mine who is an old school UGA fan, has said the last two years that UGA need a good purging. I think he actually said it when they hired Crean. Well, maybe now he'll be happy lol.

A roster crunch with 9 players transferring out.  Even by Crean standards that's kind of impressive.

It's really interesting at minimum. I've become more curious about their situation. I've heard buzz from folks and they're all over the place. Maybe I'll dig in and look at the numbers. 

 

Nah...

Creans already purged the roster 2 or 3 times. If your friend thinks it’s the players you need to get your friend help.  Friends don’t let friends listen to Tom Crean

First Tom Crean purged the Mark Fox players.

Now Tom Crean is purging the Tom Crean players.

He's not really a fan of Crean at all. He's just a lifelong disappointed UGA fan... 

And they've had plenty of issues... Whenever I get down on IU, I talk to one of my UGA buds and I feel better.

I think he’s already purged the Tom Crean players. Now he’s purging the replacement players.  Where’s footsteps falco when you need him.

BREAKING NEWS.  UGA announces new corporate sponsor for men's basketball.

Anyone talking about IU reaching out to 7'0 Michael Durr who started at South Florida last year? Committed to Virginia Tech but since reopened his recruitment. IU did a zoom with him with the whole staff. Averaged 8 points and 7 rebounds or something like that. Seems interesting and somewhat odd with our roster but nothing wrong with kicking the tires, unless it hurts your foot.

Yup--it's a few pages back in this thread.

Thank you. Miss a couple of days and fall pages behind. I'm going to fine myself for my laziness to look back.

Kind of hope it’s just kicking the tires unless the staff see something special I guess. I understand you do what is necessary to add impact talent, but nothing really jumps off the page as super special about Durr from what I’ve seen. 
 

I wonder who is thinking they might transfer but hasn’t announced it. The later it goes, the more awkward it gets because the kid may find it harder to find a good landing spot.
