Soo...
We keep saying someone has to leave - but we're missing the fact that we have 4 transfers coming in (Amardi, Edozie, Hogue and Bluford) and maybe, just MAYBE one of them won't even make it to the court? Perhaps some fallout from all the scuttlebutt over at IHCC last month?
Just speculating - but that would be my guess if I had to make one.

Okay, since everyone else is guessing-
I think Fred flashed his winning smile at the NCAA and they gave him an extra scholarship to work with.
This is the most reasonable explanation I have read yet about where the scholarship is coming from.
Freds a smart dude who I'm pretty sure is capable of counting to 13. If there is interest, I'm sure he knows something we do not. Its probably not fair to speculate on who may be leaving though.
I love the transfer route. Its not like he is completely relying on them like he was his first couple years. If we have room available, go find the best players you can.

I am fine with transfers as long as the talent it coming our way and not leaving--distinct difference between the last two coaches (and I was a McDermott fan).
Anyone know if we are still showing interest in Emmanuel Malou? He visited in February.

Tinsley was a transfer. I'd say that worked out OK for us.
Transfers are a fact of life now. You can live in the past and try and do things the old way, or get with the times and do what it takes to be successful in today's NCAA.
Fred is ahead of the curve on this.

Sorry JUCO's and transfers are different. As a JUCO you only can play 1-2 years at a school. Transfers are from one NCAA school to another and must sit out a year.
Tinsley didn't transfer and sit out a year. Exhausted his eligibility at Mt. San Jacinto Community College and then enrolled at Iowa State and played right away.

How is that the "right" way? I am pretty sure what Fred Hoiberg has done these past 3 years qualifies as the right way to build a progrma.
I'm sure we'd have no problem finding a scholarship. If nothing else Bubu can go back to being a walkon. Does anyone actually think nobody on our roster will transfer out and all the recruits currently committed will make it to campus? How long ago has it been since that happened?
Lots of short people around here today (things going right over your heads).
Hoks are always talking about the 'right' way to build a program - hint, they don't think transfers are it...
