Transfer Portal Tracker

UNC just lost a frosh, can’t remember his name, hope Jeff kicks the tires, he seemed like a promising recruit a year ago
 
I don't know how you screen players for this but someone who is a team player and puts winning over personal goals would be the trait that I look for. You know, like the 4 guys leaving.
 
At least one of the team first guys we need is a big with muscle to backup Fede and let the Twins play more on the wing.

Exactly. Another functional big goes a long way to fixing this team’s weaknesses for next year. That and a veteran guard would be a nice start.

Darn near the entire Temple roster is in the portal, but they may be hedging their bets until they see who the new coach is.

The way you do it is focus on players from winning programs, like hinson elliott and cummings all came from teams in the tourny this year, and burton came from texas tech after beard left

Someone like mylyjael poteat was last year would be a perfect addition. Had 2-3 years left. Made a high % of his shots and rebounded well in Limited time at rice b4 jumping to vtech

I’m waiting on Damian Dunn to enter. He walked in senior day, but has two years left. He would be a Burton replacement. Kind of looks like him, from NC and has two years to play. He is a little lankier than Burton, but can be your combo guard.

I would then look for a one year PG to be a bridge to Lowe, Carrington and Dior (giant wildcard).

You would also love to get a shooter like Elliott or a bigger wing who can rebound to hold it down til Barnes is ready.

Front court is pretty set. With Hugley leaving maybe they go after a freshman transfer who wouldn’t demand a lot of playing time right away.

I thought Dunn was one of the guys who entered.
 
Capel needs to go after A-listers now. He got fairly lucky with Nelly, Hinson, Elliot, and Fede. I mean we all thought they can be maybe like NIT good with those guys but they over-performed. That isnt always going to happen when you are the best team to offer these transfers. They have starting positions at the 2 and 3 available. Potentially a starting position underneath for a rebounder (please Javon Franklin enter the portal). We need to go toe to toe with the NC State, Wake's, Xavier's, Marquette's, etc and land those higher level transfers.

They have a full time assistant/scout for the portal, so they get good evaluations and find the right fit. That helped them be “lucky” this year.
I'm wondering which of our players will use the portal. If history is any indication, we'll lose a few.
Hugley. Santos maybe. Dior always a wild card.

Every win makes Pitt a more attractive destination .

Pitt needs a stud rebounder and a proven marksman to pair with Hinson until the freshman prove they’re ready . .

Javon Franklin would be so perfect because I think you start him underneath to play the 4 on offense with Hinson at the 3 but he's so athletic, you have him guard the 3 on offense while Hinson guards the 4.
 
Chris - can you please delete this thread and put these posters on a time out? Pitt is still playing in the NCAA tourney. Thanks!

I hope we see Pitt’s name linked to some transfers soon. As @SteelCityChamps states, there’s a full time assistant on staff monitoring the portal. Pitt should be a transfer destination.
 
Fun would be perfect. From kinston, NC thought. Stackhouse will be in him as he is from kinston. He is linked to Sykes from unc who is from kinston
 
Tre isn’t leaving WVU unless they get rid of Huggins. If Dan Fisher would’ve taken his girlfriend who I hand delivered that was all big 12….
 
Dwayne Cohill?
Plays for youngstown st. Averaged 18 ppg 5 asg and 3.5 rpg and shot 43% from 3. He is from the class of 2018, so i believe he has his covid year left if he wants it. Hes from cleveland oh. Not sure if hes using it or if he is even transferring but hes a lower level pg who could make a jump up in competition
Edit: mb, thought i mentioned him as a potential guard somewhere in this thread and you werent sure who he was.
