Seems like a stretch given the timing but you could be right. I'll bet you a nickel as a side bet that we don't see any movement

I know but and I’m purely speculating. Honestly just trying to make sense of it all.
It also assumes someone giving up a scholarship or leaving the team does it by entering the portal.
That or anyone else that has a scholarship….any of the incoming Frosh…Furst….waddell…berg….
Correct. That seems like the most obvious to me unless one of the incoming freshmen is willing to go the prep school route, which isn't a bad deal if you're not a surefire NBA prospect. Take a year to work on your body and game and add on a year when you're 22 or 23 and more likely to get a big NIL payday.
Appreciate the shout out.
Well, I'm not in knots. We have the players we need ... one is not going to make much difference.
Why are you so obsessed with who's wrong? If you're going to continue this calling folks out for being wrong or hyperbole, then stop with the passive aggressive and give examples so whomever it is you are trying to waste time calling out can respond.
You don’t think it has some impact as to recruiting / transfer portal next year? If we have an open scholarship(s) next year, Sisley or (doubtful but possible) Haralson can join the team. I’d say Haralson would have a bigger contribution right away, but if neither join, we would maybe be able to add a transfer that might have somewhat of a potential impact similar to Lance.
We had 2 players transfer out. Now if you meant others then I get what you are saying.
Understand your point. Non-COVID year guys. Ethan and Mason were always assumed to be leaving.
I don't care about being wrong and I certainly don't want anyone to apologize for it. The nature of these boards is that there will be differing opinions and some will be wrong (cue Ethan Morton's shooting ability for me). IMO that's different than the behavior I'm calling out. I think we are all are guilty of using hyperbole or absolutism at times in trying to convince others of our views rather than engaging in honest conversation. For those who don't act that way, please ignore, my comments are not targeted at you.
I really figured on someon transferring, not counting Gillis and Morton. Aren't we one over the limit? Painter knows so we can just wait and see.
Yes over the limit by 1 and that doesn’t count any of the seniors who could have returned for a Covid year.
If this happens could that player still get NIL money?
That is without a doubt THE most ridiculous, inane, and superfluous thing you have EVER posted on this board, nay, on ANY board, throughout the entire history of the WEB!!!!!!
Edey and Gillis are leaving a ton of available minutes for Furst to compete for. He’ll have to earn it, but he knows that Coach Painter will be fair and do what’s best for team.
Agreed. This is the situation you stayed three years to see come to fruition.
Slightly OT, but I still believe that Waddell has the ability to be a good high major player and is just buried in the depth chart. If he isn’t able to break through in the depth chart this year, maybe he plays his super senior year for Shrews at ND. Just speculating, but I want to see him get his shot somewhere.
So you’re saying he’d transfer out his senior year to go play for ND? Who is just fighting to get into the tourney?
Could be and would make sense why radio silence. If someone did unexpectedly decide to go portal then no need to give up, but if that doesn't happen the plan could be to announce it after the portal closes.
If it is the difference between being out of the rotation and starting, possibly. I really want to see him do it at Purdue, but I feel the same about Heide, Colvin, Catchings, Harris, etc. I am just not sure that the playing time is there for all of them.
I mean if we sign someone in 25, in this scenario that's now two years as a walk-on if no one leaves. Might make sense at that point, again in this scenario.
He should leave now then. Not sure how playing time works out this year…or for next
Well, I mean, maybe, but if he's just happy being here and not necessarily looking for playing time. Or maybe he thinks he can surprise next season. Who knows?
