Right. Silence on a player is more telling with this staff. It’s been pretty quiet in regards to a few players leading up to this season
Luke Anderson and Marcedus Leech have entered the transfer portal

- Start date
I wish those two young men well.
But yeah, we had not heard anything about those two making meaningful contributions, either this year or going forward for the next four years.
Sometimes it is best that we all move on.
Sounds like Jackson and Grill are hanging, at least one of them will be in the rotation, and they both have potential as shooters. Grill, despite being a white boy from Kansas, is something of an athlete/upside play anyways.
I am excited to see what the staff does with the open scholarships now!

Yeah but better they leave now
Interesting take considering NBA scouts value players that Prohm has recruited and got commitments from Cannan, Payne, Wigginton, THT and Haliburton next.
I would consider that P5 worthy but to each their own on what talent is.
I don't know. All these guys are used to being the best player on the court most of the time they play. They probably all think they will be a day 1 starter. Then reality sets in when they get to campus and start practicing and realize how many good players there are to compete with.
Wait this is actually a good post. What's going on here?
Prohm likely won't ever redshirt a player unless it's injury or academic related. Which is the correct approach in today's college basketball.
New phone who dis?
Hey, if they land Foster that will go a long ways in gaining my trust in this coaching staff. These two leaving seems like the logical first step to that happening so this seems like good news right now.
For them, especially they can now make another roster mid year.
I mean the simple solution is to take kids you arent going to cut a day before the season starts if that's the case.
This is wilfully overlooking a bunch of information or complete ignorance.
I'm not going to outline my point again, but this staff is missing badly on too many people. That's the jist. Of course there are outliers. There always are in any system.
If the reason for them leaving is that they weren't going to cut it competitively, this is about the best possible outcome for Prohm. We're down a couple of players for this season, but they weren't likely to be in the rotation absent a number of significant injuries. By parting ways now, Prohm still gets to use the scholarships in the fall period when our top targets are still available. That is so much better than trying to fill slots at the last minute in the spring.
Prohm recruited 3 players that earned All Conference recognition last year alone (Shayok, THT and Wigginton) plus Haliburton. Recruiting is at the bottom of my concerns with Prohm
Correct, and Prohm would admit it. But he's not going to hit on 100% of his recruits. It's better to move on now, than have them ride the bench and take up scholarships for 2 or 3 more years.
Bummer for these kids, I thought both had potential, I wish them luck but I'd trade both for Foster.
