2023 Off-Season Basketball - Outside UVa

I’ve literally never heard of this happening. You sure you don’t know one person like this and claim it’s “many”?

This is so damn funny

He’s chose Notre Dame …. High school …in California …. to transfer to.

I get that Notre Dame is a common name but that school just ripped off everything

Good tuneups for the national teams in preparation for the FIBA World Cup. Pretty fortunate confluence of timing for all parties.

Very much so.

So I think the question all on our minds is “Does Tony hate charity?”.

Im actually a little higher on Jordan Minor than most for the role I envision him playing (pick n roll with reece, solid athlete inside). But man Trey Kaufman would have been the perfect small ball center with his ability to shoot 3s,

There’s a Purdue contingent that actually prefers Kaufman at center to Zach Edey because of his floor spacing, and mobility on the defensive end.

(I agree with them - Edey might be a Ewing theory kind of thing).

Minor will be awesome in the PNR until teams start scouting us and realize he can’t shoot, so it becomes one dimensional. That’s my worry. Minor’s defender just sags off and is a better athlete than typical NEC guys.

That’s fair. Until Minor reveals that he’s been taking 500 nba 3s a day and goes Kawhi in the midrange

If so - then just put him in pick and rolls all day with Rohde and Isaac and dare his man to play drop coverage as our shooters drill 3 after 3.

Ha, Rothstein didn’t cancel his sub either.

I saw this noted on social media as a potential sign that waivers for immediate eligibility for guys transferring a second (or more) time could be tough to come by:

I don’t know how true that will be across the board, but could be interesting to monitor.

That seems to be the trend in the football guys who’ve had their waivers ruled on

Twitter noise ie Slater tease that Akok Akok is about to transfer from Georgetown to WVU. They gotta do something to stop the late movement. Bad enough players are being bought straight off other rosters. For it to still happen in August is ridiculous.

Saw that Sir Mohammad is announcing. Someone please tell me it’s not the Hokies

Creighton’s Bahama stats:

Not the most impressive stint for Fish. I wonder if Mason Miller (Mike’s kid) takes some of his minutes.

Miami and Pitt did foreign trips, too, but follow the UVa model in terms of dearth of info, stats, etc. Memphis lost to the Dominican national team, featuring one of their alums (Lester Quinones), but I think they may have been down a starter or so (?).

BC is playing, too. No stats. Looks like Post is playing well, ALigbe back, and I can’t tell about Hand.

Hokies are traveling, too. Again, no stats/info.

That’s all I could see for direct Wahoo interest – opponents or transfers.

The Bahamas is further from Nebraska than Charlottesville I think. Homesick factor coulda been real
