I  believe the Princeton game is in Trenton, NJ at the Cure Arena. If not I wasted a few dollars. 

Last year Temple was at the military classic at the Naval Academy and played the second game. Maybe next year we will get to play them.

It needs to start with Frank and Wally’s II.

If he is Dominique Aekins from the Cincinnati area, he was honorable mention All Ohio boys basketball team last year. He is a 5'9" guard.  

I failed to disclose that I gleaned this information from a sports commentary, I did not personally check bank accounts, and I failed to allow for the probability that the players transferred because they liked the number of volumes in the university libraries. 

Moving forward, is the A10 a one bid league?

After the A10 tournament Dayton announced they would not participate in further play due to injuries. Apparently St. Louis and Fordham were not invited to the NIT and did not apply to play in the CBI. The semi-final and championship CBI games are on ESPN2.

500 wins is a momentous achievement. He did it in 25 years, which means an average of 20 wins a year. He knows how to coach, but even more importantly, he has adjusted to the transfer portal and NIL situation better than most. You always have to keep learning or you are left in the dust. Improvise, adapt and overcome. 

Vukovcan has a nice article on PSN about the transfer portal (mainly focusing on football). Scholarships are one year commitments. In basketball, I think 6-7 new players each year is the expected norm. Some will transfer out as their decision and some will be pushed out the door. Only 2-3 HS kids will come in, and those that do will not likely stay long. The old concept of building a program with HS recruits and developing them over four years with some supplementation from transfers has to be revisited. The new norm is how well can one recruit numerous transfers and integrate them into a team concept each year. The bottom line is still wins, but how that is achieved will be done differently from the past. 

In essence we traded Leon Ayers for Joe Reece. Reece was dismissed from BG's team in late February. Ayers was nowhere to be found around the same time. Both had been at other schools where they performed well but ran into issues at their last school. Both appear to have talent and potentially could be a help at their new school. Without knowing what went on behind the scenes, it's hard to comment further. 

Leaving Oregon. He entered the transfer portal. He is eligible for a 6th year. 

I support the coach. Calling him a con artist is inappropriate because it demeans his character, which he does not deserve. Clearly he is trying his best. The loss on Saturday stings, so it is easy to jump on him now. I agree that there are areas that need improvement. Our offense lacked flow especially when compared to the Flyers. We need at least one big if not two. Our young players need to mature. That said, there is a nucleus here that can lead to a good team in the A10 with some additions. I believe most have made up their minds on this issue so the debate is probably not worthwhile.
