2018-19 Transfers

[asiseeit]

All the best to both RB and RT. I hope there won't be any more that played meaningful minutes
leaving.

Rod lost his brother quite recently. My thoughts and prayers go with him during these tumultuous times.

[Dan]

Rod will likely have to spend a year at a JUCO since he already took a redshirt year. He could use a year as a starter somewhere.

[N Crestway]

Admittedly thought everyone was coming back for at least one more year. What is going on at WSU, however, is relatively minor compared to the turnover that is taking place up in Jayhawk land.

Just a couple guys on the outside looking in. Cant blame them for wanting playing time, ant blame the staff for wanting to spread out the classes.

I hope all our transfers are this predictable.

Sad for Rod that he already took a redshirt year. Guess he'll either go Juco or DII.

[Shocktoberfest]

Seems like just a great kid. Wish him nothing but the best. Take care Rod. No doubt you will continue to bust your tail to be the best you can be. Sorry to see you go.

[BOBB]

100% wish he didn’t burn his redshirt already. Glad he got that massive dunk this year. Seemed like a good kid.

I’m going to miss Rod’s dad as well... brought the mojo in spite of Rod getting limited minutes... God bless, Brown family

[Blackmag]

Good luck to Rod and Ricky, they were nothing but class individuals while here.

I do not understand this post. Perhaps I'm missing something...but what do you mean when you say "what's going on at WSU?"

[ShockBand]

I think all he means is we are having normal transfer departures of players who, for whatever reason, see a better fit elsewhere. Typically over expected playing time. He is hinting there is more than that afoot at KU, at least that is how I take his statement.

[N Crestway]

Just think this is a watershed point for Self's program. A lot of people leaving, recruiting doubts surfacing on the part of the coaching staff, and Self probably a little doubt ridden for a guy who has seemingly been pretty confident and cocky up until this point in his coaching career.

[Aargh]

Rod could probably tear it up if he took a JuCo year and then went somewhere like Bradley.

[Dan]

I’d rather see him play for Forbes. Close to home, good coach, good program.

[Topshock]

LOL, I see what your doing there.

[wufan]

Rod needs to be in a fast break offense. He brings a ton of energy and attacks the basket. He has the body and work ethic to be a high level contributor at a major D-I school. Good luck to the young man and good luck to Ricky!

I don't think he has to drop down to a bottom level NCAA team like Bradley to tear it up. He could be really good at a lower level P5 or good mid major.

[Stickboy46]

But i did tell the truth in my post ....

[ShockTalk]

You have no shame.

[Stickboy46]

I mean .. 61st seed out of 68 of the teams that backed into the tourney. If that doesn't scream bottom level .. then i don't know what does.

Great quote, pin -- that's what I call building a program.

Has anyone else noticed that Lawrence either has been, or has been talked about, as a destination for a number of high profile transfers in recent years? Of course, there are only so many assistant jobs to go around, but their boosters probably love the savings.

[MikeKennedyRulZ]

Best of luck to Rod. He seemed like a great kid and worked his butt off when he was in the game. He could use a year of Juco and like some have said, I think he could get a chance at a good school.

Sunrise kid, had a WSU offer outa HS

[ShockTalk]

Pass.

Freshman year was with the UIC Flames where he was a starter in 30 of 35 games and played 24.5 minutes, 7.1 ppg, and 4.2 rpg, shot 38.8/36.6/65.0. Fouled out of 5 games (2.8 pg) and had 41 assists with 64 turnovers.

Sat out the next year after transferring to Missouri.

Played somewhat sparingly, 20 games, 12.3 mpg, playing less the 2nd half of the season. Limited stats shooting 31.4/22.2/14.3, 5 assist, 17 turnovers.

Assume he would have to sit again. An article said he plans to move to a school closer home in Geneva, IL (Chicago).

[pie n eye]

UIC Flames sounds like a hockey team.
