Transfer Portal Thread

[MJSooner]

The way the portal works, mid-majors are the new jucos. Guys spend 1-2 years there, show some promise and transfer to a power 5 school.

I agree with this. When JUCOs started having difficulty with admissions and transfers, the prep schools became the new JUCos, as players would go to prep school to increase their visibility and attraction to better programs.

Now, the portal and mid-majors have, in effect, eliminated the need for the Big 5/6 conferences to recruit from prep schools. They can target the top 200 kids from HS and make up the rest of the schollies from the portal.

As we have seen with a lot of misses over the last 10-15 years, JUCO players, even a JUCO AA, rarely transfer any longer to a dominant power conference player.

If Kansas gets Mosley and McCullar with what they already have, that's the runaway No. 1 team.

Would say UNC if they get Mayer from Baylor as they bring back everyone from a Final Four run and Kansas lost their best player.

except they don't bring everyone back ..

A low life assistant at K-State used to work out Antoine Davis through John Lucas’s academy . I suspect that’s why he will likely go to K-State.

I don't like the idea of D1 schools being used as recruiting grounds for bigger programs... They should make a change to eligibility based on junior college. 2 years of juco basketball only costs 1 year of eligibility, or something like that. So you can transfer in from juco and still have 3 years. Something like that.

May I request the unc-ku convos go to a different thread? I hate both of those teams and want to see them fail miserably. “That’s about all i have to say about that.” -Forrest gump

Wish we would have gotten more involved here. He is a good get.

Agree. Was really impressed watching him a couple times. Would have given us a dimension we lack.

I agree but who would have sat on the bench? Osunniyi or Tanner? Or do you ride with Tanner at the 4 and bench Hill? We'll see with Allick (should be on OU's campus at this moment). Allick or Hill for example?

All things remaining the same (playing time, position, utilization on a team, etc.) I do expect the University of Oklahoma to beat out the likes of California, Colorado St. and Illinois State. There are many factors involved but surely OU is the best out of the bunch.

Agree. He would be an adequate replacement for Mo. Strong shoots the 3 very well.
