This is good.  Now get a big man who can bang under the boards, keep Champagnie and we look really good for next year.

The portal will continue to fill as coaches move around an players enter, an other resaons also. A good salesman can build a team from the portal in one offseason. Really if a coach can't field a  team from one yr to the next now days, a problem exists with recruiting or communication or both. A good coach  can get it done quickly.

You make it sound like it only makes it easier for everybody.

He didn't say everybody he said a good coach and yes no matter what the circumstances if it is part of your job a good coach will get it done.

Glad for a shooter, think he will fit in nicely around posh and GWill. One more complimentary piece (in addition to a center) and we will be in good shape for next year.

Seems like a good fit. He dropped 17 on us two seasons ago in a win for Vermont. Hopefully the step up translates. Would like to see us get major conference transfers. Picked St. John's over Colorado and Loyola Marymount.

Looks like a Mikey Dixon clone at first glance.

That's almost everyone but should plug in for his production.

Dixon found himself a good spot out there at GCU. That said, he is nowhere close to a Big East player and it was a miscalculation by the person that thought he was. We'll see if Stef Smith will be able to compete at this level on an every night basis where Dixon couldn't.

Seems to be a crapshoot as to which conferences produce the better grad transfers. UVM isn
