Re: NCAA Tournament Thread

If I figure it right, all teams that were 13 seeds (like Hofstra) would now be 14 seeds under the new format, playing a 3 seed instead of a 4 seed That is correct. There will now be 4 additional 16 and 15 seeds, and you know those will all be filled by AQs and not at large teams. So have to slide a...

Re: 2026 Transfer Portal

PortalUpdates, on Twitter, reporting that 7'0'' soph Spence Wewe is transferring to Hofstra from Quinnipiac. Not an offensive player, bur a solid rebounder and defender. started 31 games for QU. i believe an excellent pickup So we traded Parrotta for their starting center essentially? Lol Fwiw he o...

Re: 2026 Transfer Portal

Northeastern's two best players from last season have landed.... at Uncw and Charleston. Lol. Kermoury to uncw and Xavier Abreu to charleston.

I guess considering we have 2 ex CAA guys can't complain as much anymore. But even within this league the disparity in money is just so stark.

Re: NCAA Tournament Thread

As rumored, 76 teams will be very likely starting next year for the men's and women's tournaments. That plan could be finalized over roughly the next three weeks. https://x.com/PeteThamel/status/2049244083667783710 Terrible.

Re: 2026 Transfer Portal

Interesting here, report that NCAA president Charlie Baker is confident the 5/5 new age limit rule will pass, but would not be enforced retroactively. That would mean guys like Biggie, Sunday, and the entire UNCW roster besides Wessler are done. Considering how many teams have just about filled thei...

Re: 2026 Transfer Portal

Those Charleston transfers really weaken the Cougars. Have they signed anyone yet? Charleston not only signed the 7 footer from Villanova we were reportedly interested in, they also grabbed Eli Ellis, a 4 star guard who averaged 8.6 pts in nearly 27 min a night off the bench as a freshman at South ...

Re: 2026 Transfer Portal

Interesting landing spots for both of Charlestons centers today... Christian Reeves to Kansas and Chol Machot to Georgetown. Does make you wonder what's left for us when those bigs are going to those level schools. Not downplaying Dunn or Zorg, but still feels to me like we need an impact center

Re: 2026 Transfer Portal

Oh, also, DP86, to follow up regarding Lopez - so it's definitely a 'risk' on my part as you're totally right on him being out of the game for a bit, but he was brought here for a reason and has had a lot of staff hype. I think he's of the mold to be turned into a star under Speedy - in fact, he wa...

Re: 2026 Transfer Portal

It would be absolute chaos, even by the NCAAs inept standards, if that rule was to go into effect retroactively later this summer making guys like Sunday eligible. But fwiw, according to verbal commits Sunday did enter the portal yesterday before the deadline. He's not alone in that regard, all of U...

Re: 2026 Transfer Portal

Tom Rock of Newsday is reporting that we have a commitment from JUCO center Riley Dunn a 7' Australian. He scored 4 points a game playing around 14 minutes. Also showed some 3 point stats for him but I'm sure at 4 pg he didn't shoot much from there. Stats show him getting 4 boards and shooting FT's...

Re: 2026 Transfer Portal

Charleston landed the center from Villanova that we had been rumored to have been interested in. Wouldn't be surprised if this kid had a Wessler like impact in the CAA. Zorgvol is definitely intriguing, but still hoping we find someone good enough to make him the backup C and not the starter. https:...

Re: 2026 Transfer Portal

So considering Speedy rarely goes more than 8 or 9 deep in the rotation, are we really just another C and hopefully legit depth forward away from the core of next year's team being complete? This is how I see the lineup right now: PG: Justin Moore SG: Deywilk Tavarez G/F - Tanner Thomas PF - Decady ...

Holy cow Victory just landed at Wisconsin. I dont know if he's mature enough for the Big Ten but best of luck to him. https://x.com/i/status/2045517122994881007 NC State also a nice landing spot for Edmead. Better than Oregon imo.

Re: 2026 Transfer Portal

Exciting! Another intriguing signing. Absolutely remember Justin Moore from Drexel. From the eye test felt like he was one of the few CAA guards with the handles/talent to keep up with our guards a few years ago. Will admit looking at the stats his shooting numbers are worse than I expected and leav...

I would double or triple that easy. At a school like Texas Tech no way Cruz didnt clear a million imo. Thats basically the going rate for an average starter in the Big 12

Re: 2026 Transfer Portal

St John's just signed a 23 yr old Euroleague kid to be their starting PG. If you look at the photo attached to the article here, he's literally being guarded by Shabbaz Napier, who last played for Uconn in 2014, spent 6 yrs in the NBA, and is 34 yrs old. This sport is so broken https://www.zagsblog....
