With no juniors on the roster I see prospect of a player or 2 or maybe even 3 transferring out as a near certainty.

There's a logjam looming in the front court and the backcourt so I don't see how  every player in the program can be content to find themselves out of the rotation for the remaining 2 or 3 seasons after this one is over. Of course anything can happen but without a player getting injured and red shirted or being excused from the program transfers again seem to be assured.

We've had someone transfer or leave the program every year since 2005 at least. It wouldn't be anything new.

That's definitely true, we have had a high attrition rate over the past 10 or so years. But as of this moment, scholarships seem to be tied up for next year.

And I think we do have a Junior on the team, he's just sitting out this year.

Because your original post presented it as a negative - logjams are never good.

Offutt will be a junior NEXT year...Therefore, we have no juniors.

I have to disagree with you.  My post presented it as a reality.  I'm  sure there is no reason I should expect anyone to remember but last year  I made a post that suggested that an ascending program (I presume Ohio to be one under Coach Groce) is sure to see several players transfer as the incoming talent becomes better than the upper classmen.

So logjams being good or bad would depend on one's perspective. Sorry for any misinterpretation on your or anyone else's part.

Again I must apologize for any confusion I may have caused.  We have no juniors on this year's roster which translates into no seniors on next year's roster.

There is still one scholarship available for next year.

Oops, I thought the limit was 12. Carry on, and let's get another guy (at least).
