The 2023 Official “Jay Bilas No Rules” Transfer Portal Thread

[SubGod22]

I don't know, having the ability to unclog the lane and allow more room for driving, cutting and passing isn't a bad thing.

Jayden Pierre is a 6'2" FR PG transferring out of Providence. Looks like he was their backup PG this year as he averaged 11 minutes per game. Had an A/T ratio of about 2.7/1 and shot 54.4% from deep. He's from Elizabeth, NJ. He'll probably stay out east but having a guy like this along with maybe a one year SR rental at PG would be pretty good. Though maybe this guy is ready to step up and lead a team.

I know about Walton, Pohto, Scott, Flanagan. Who’s the 5th?

I don't care if we ever recruit or sign a 'big man' that purportedly can shoot from 'deep' again. Unless you're Kevin Durant part 2 (and newsflash, you AREN'T) get your ass in the paint and go to work.

Carl Hall >>>>> Kenny Pohto

Our old friend Clarence Jackson has hit the portal again. This time leaving Jacksonville State

That's my big problem with KP.

Yes, he has a unique skillset for a big, but I feel like I'm watching a player with a 5'10" mentality in a 7' body.

USE YOUR SIZE KENNY!! REALIZE YOUR FULL POTENTIAL!!

He's been pretty public about how much he regrets leaving WSU.

Isaac Brown?

Isaac Brown?

My assumption was that the other transfer portal thread was for general discussion about the portal and complaining about the gigantic mess it has created out of D-1 college basketball, and this thread was specifically for our outgoing players and for recruits we are targeting. I'm probably wrong about that, but I think it sounds real good.

Sounds good to me.

Our freshman from the Fall, Jacob Wilson, is counted towards this upcoming season.

Yeah, he responds to a comment on this tweet that "he isn't hard to find" lol

Could rent a big man for a year. Jamarion Sharp is in the portal from Western Kentucky. He's a 7'5" C that averaged 7 and 8 along with 4 blocks per game. It appears WKU was the "weakest" program to offer him a few years ago.

Brown didn’t like Monzy and didnt give him a fair shot. He pulled him regularly when he was playing well.

He wasn't exactly lighting the world on fire with a 97.3 ORtg his last season here. Pleasant, Jenkins, and Grant were the only significant players here that season who were less efficient than he was.

If he's able to find a good situation at a better school, great. But it's unlikely he would find a situation where he's a starter and significant contributor at a program that's top 75 in KenPom/Torvik.
