Neal would be even better having another off season within the system.

ty, pop, fedor, neal, mcandrew, green, traudt, king. pretty good returning group. a couple transfers and they could have similar expectations as this year's team.

I agree. While there is no replacing Kalk and Ash, I’m intrigued by our possible returnees, plus Greer, IF this group stays. I thought I saw several prominent senior losses from our conference competitors (Diarra, Kam Jones, Joplin, Mitchell, Dixon, Poplar, Peavy, Xavier loses x10 seniors, Telfort). We may be much more experienced by comparison. My bigger fear is Green and McAndrew may get stolen away by a team with deeper pockets. I could see King testing the waters, too. Let’s hope this group sees the benefits of the current situation.

losing mcandrew or green would be such a gut punch. hopefully they're taken care of and bought in.

Label me the eternal optimist and I am 100% cool with that BTW, but outside of King and Miller, I don’t see any other transfer outs of players who log regular minutes…

Miller will follow his Uncle and King will want to play a starting role on a lesser team in a lesser conference assuming the $ is there whatever that might be

I think we can find a much more dynamic replacement for Jamiya in the portal. Not nearly has high on him as other members of our fanbase. And if I'm being honest, I am not high on him at all and have been extremely frustrated with him outside of a few games.


Still not high on Jamiya?

He's been up and down. But the statement also applied to Baylor and Ashworth in their transfer year. It takes time to adjust to the Mac system.

Jamiya has far exceeded my expectations. They weren't high to begin with. But he's been exactly what the team needed this season, to the best of his ability.

I think Neal has been exceptional. Gives us athleticism no one else has. Can score at 3 levels. Doesn’t always score but contributes some way each game. Switched to the 2 which had a learning curve.
