***Official 2018-19 Transfer Thread***

Interesting

Iowa State at least giving a call is interesting. Mathis is one of the few Grad Transfers left who could help ISU next year and be major insurance if Bolton isn't granted his waiver. (Blackshear would be another).

I am not sure Prohm giving him a call is anything more than just to gauge interest and I don't expect Mathis to end up even visiting ISU let alone committing considering his options. I'll give credit to Prohm for at least keeping the options open and possibly dealing with the roster consequences if it is necessary.

Much like when DeAndre Kane's decision was made hard decisions needed to be made every few years to improve the team even if feelings are hurt. I don't think any Cyclone fan would look back at that as the wrong choice 5 years later, even if it may have hurt some JC coaches relationships.

I'll speculate. Prohm is taking a page out of my coaching plan in that he won't run anyone off the team but if someone better comes along he'll sign the better kid and pull a basketball scholarship from a current player and place them on a "coach walkon" scholarship.

Everyone is happy, we get good players, win games and demoted player still gets a spot on the team and free school.

It's great to see us still trying to improve the roster!

I'd imagine Dana Altman will be hot after this one.

This one will be done quickly...

Oregon’s best player

Have fun in Eugene, Mr. Mathis. That will help them rebuild quickly/instantly.

Oregon’s best player

Sounds like a case of "Oregon and here is a list of 10 other schools so it doesn't look like Oregon was tampering."

 

[jmb]

Speculating specifically about players on our team being bumped is unnecessary, and unfair to all players, as inevitably, it's just people throwing shade at the players they don't think are good enough.

They should have listed more schools. 69 seems like a good number.

Chris and others have been pretty clear on this.

What have they been clear about? That we are not supposed to speculate? Or that we are still looking to find new talent? Guess I am not sure.

You really didn't read Pride's post? Really?

Come on, man. You've been around a long time. This isn't new info. General speculation is fine, but preemptively suggesting that a specific player might leave to make room for another has long been frowned upon. It's something Chris has been pretty adamant about.

The problem is I didn't say any names. I just said it's time to speculate. I didn't bring up anybody. The speculation would have to be if we are still recruiting someone, then someone has either decided to move on or we are moving someone on. Not once did I mention a player though.

Just heading that off at the pass.

Keep playing dumb.

Nobody said you named any names, but that's where the speculation talk always ends up. You wanted to know why you got disagrees? That's why.

Quack quack quack.

 

[Statefan10]

Visiting Oregon

He's most likely going to go there. They need bodies, he's from Oregon, and his long time best friend is Payton Pritchard their point guard.

 

[CyTwins]

I know he's going to Oregon but that would be a fantastic addition
