To be fair, transferring was not very popular in all of NCAA until McDermott days. And then it became popular, and everyone playing for McDermott realized how awesome life was away from him and left.
Didn't realize Fred has probably lost as many as he's gotten. would be interesting to see that breakdown, yet too lazy to do my own research. If someone has time....:spinny:
LE had Ricky Morgan, A 4 star PG from Michigan who lasted 1 year.
Also, Tim Barnes was a Juco who played 1 year. Came in the same time as Jackson Vroman. He only played 1 year. Couldn't pass the grades and caught with dope too many times. This forced a young Will Blalock to have to start as a true freshmen.
That kid from NE (Zach Fortune - not Eckmeyer who as a McDermott kid who left for greener pastures and success with LE in Colorado State) - but was the Nebraska Gatorade POY.

Well if I could recall - I'd put his name down. :wink: He was Mr Basketball in Nebby in HS. I believe transferred to North Dakota or somewhere. Remember his dad being a royal pain in the arse.
I'm not 100% about Hayes. I thought Floyd gave him his walking papers the second year and remember being upset about it because after Fred, Meyer, Julius and Beechum - Hayes was about all we had coming back.
Edit: yep

Edit: Yep - Zach Fortune.

Which also leads to Eustachy and Brandon Brown. Double Edit: Brandon Hawkins (Brown was the linebacker - duhhh)

Yep - I believe Barnes played LE's final year. Missed the go ahead, tying shot against iowa in the NIT
I think this is about the 5th post you mention "nose dive". Troll much tavernahawk?
How are we classifying Charles Boozer? He was a McDermott guy, but left as soon as Fred showed up (having to do mainly with beating his gf, not problems with CFH).
You're correct on Railey. Godfrey played one year under Fred before he was weeded out.
If you and I were in the same room right now I would probably karate chop you in the jugular and duct tape your hands together so you'd stop posting this crap.
(end internet tough-guy rant)
Orr (just the ones I could immediately remember/find — there are others)
Paul Beene* (to Chicago State)
John Culbertson (to Northern Illinois)
Sam Mack (to Arizona State, then to Houston)
*IIRC, Beene was signed in same year as Barry Stevens.
