Almost certainly a $$$ issue
fair, but then put another way who is throwing serious $$$ at a guy like Boop?
Hate losing Boopie but I think we could certainly upgrade that spot with a pure PG who facilitates the offense. Unfortunately, there’s also a solid chance of a downgrade as he clearly had talent and room for improvement.
Welcome to the portal era! This is the logical conclusion of all the people moaning for years about transfer restrictions, and how XYZ player with a sob story wasn’t eligible to play immediately. Turns out those restrictions were pretty important to making this a fun sport to follow!Man fuck this shit. It's not so much the quality of the player leaving that bothers me...it's that anyone we have who has 1 good year is seemingly always on their way out the door immediately after.
Yeah, people in need of a certain position overpay for it all the time in business and in free agencySomeone "needed" him more than us and is willing to pay for it.
I’m sure he’s already received some overtures. That’s the way it works.
Not necessarily the same question. You’re losing Sallis. Can you bring in a better player to fill that role with Boopie as the defacto starting PG? Maybe, maybe not. You’re losing Sallis regardless.Yeah but can we net out ahead relative to Sallis/Boopie?
Plus I don't feel like we are done with players entering the portal.
I've said it before, I'll say it again. We need a decent Lithuanian and a decent Georgetown transfer, but they can't be the same guy. Then we shall be back on track.Even when it was much more difficult, Odom still brought in transfers. Charlie Harrison and Anthony Tucker are two notable guys who transferred to Wake and sat a year. If GDO was coaching today, he would be a big portal recruiter too.
It can be both at the same time.Any of you all that think Boopie is leaving even in part because he was scared he’d lose his playing time are delusional.
It’s money.
No but guys who don’t see the floor as freshmen in this era are hardly ever going to stay IMO. He was always going to move onAaron Clark is demanding money?
Gonna laugh when he tweets a picture of himself in a DePaul jerseyTop tier team with money that sells him on playing for a contender? He certainly wouldn’t be guaranteed to be a starter but if you could convince him to come off the bench for UNC or whatever….
