ahhhhh yea

The annual Transfers List. Is Goodman still doing the one that started it all or is he just confined to coaching rumours these days?

Impressed with how fast that list has been updated.

This one is brand new (I think) and is on there...

Tennessee’s Kwe Parker has reportedly asked for a release from his scholarship with an intent to transfer.

He is a former 3-star recruit. He is from Fayetteville, N.C., and he was North Carolina’s No. 5 player in the 2016 recruiting class. Parker also was the No. 33 point guard and No. 173 overall player in that class.  Before signing with Tennessee, Parker was a Rutgers commitment. Parker’s intended destination is not yet known.

Instant replacement for Simmons after he is done? Three years of eligibility left too. Does he like man to man D and funny tales about lava cakes?

Michigan's Mark Donnal is transferring. He has one year left and will be immediately available.

Donnal is from the Toledo area and he was offered by Toledo around the same time that our assistant coach Jason Kemp was at Toledo.

Maybe our recent football grad transfer streak from Michigan can carry over to basketball.

That is kind of a slap in the face of Dambrot isn't it for Williams to go to Bobby Mo? Right down the street. I don't know..do they play each other?

And I'm not worried about getting any 7 footers. I would take Highsmith as a grad transfer and Antino Jackson and Michael Weathers as transfers who have to sit out a year. Mega shooting lineup of Dartis, Jackson, Weathers, Butler and Block/Carter in 2 years!!! :)

Why would we want Highsmith in Athens? Antino Jackson, as a PG, I can understand, but there are already a lot of wing players on scholarship.

Wright State's best player Mark Alstork, formerly of Ball State is transferring.

He has one year left and should be immediately eligible.

Careful....Rick Hoffman was 7 feet tall. Just because you are 7 foot...doesn't automatically make you productive.

Marin Bota and his NBA skills were 7+' tall

Exactly. There's a chant, you might have heard it: "Tall and worthless!"

I would take a 6'9' Flomo over a 7'0" Jason Terry. We have to identify TALENT and successfully recruit talented players. We don't have Tree Rollins or Patrick Ewing as an assistant coach, so we should not be taking projects.

Something we agree on - I'll take a guy that can move and shoot over a "project".

This could be addition by subtraction. These guys seem to need major altitude adjustments from what I witnessed.
