Unfortunately every thing is playing out as much of us feared. Brooks leaves, Samari decommits, Jarron declares (would of happened anyway) but I think the odds of him leaving are greater now. Still only one assistant and he's from NKU. Striking out on grad transfers and Juco players. We have a long way to go until the first game in November but a lot of bad news starting off... which is expected, these are the kind of things that happen when a guy who has been here 13 years decides to leave. Just going to have to roll with it and see what JB can do.

Not a great start. I assumed everyone would try to run it back. Especially the upperclassmen. I still think the season rest on if JC comes back or not. I would have liked to have brooks but I think that void can be filled to some extent. Especially playing more high tempo

Thanks? For 3 years of scholly for 10 games of production. Crappy move Nysier.

NAS was an excellent defender and was great at protecting the rim, but on offense he was extremely soft, especially around the rim for majority of this season. I think he made a huge jump from sophomore to junior year. He was pretty much just another body off the bench his first two seasons playing behind Gary and Kyle and I was skeptical when it was handed over to Tre and Nas but he actually improved a lot which is why it sucks to lose him now because UC put all this time in on him for him to actually be decent and now that he is good he leaves for another school. IMO if he ends up at Miami who went 14-18 last year he will just be another big in the ACC, I don't think he really changes that team drastically in terms of wins and losses but I hope I am wrong and I hope he does well and doesn't regret his decision.

Leave if you followed his social media doesn’t come as a shock to me at all

Not shocking... But not a very sensible decision if his intention is to pursue professional basketball

Players don’t usually enter the transfer portal to stay at the school they are at.

Simply inexplicable decision, IMO. Best of luck to him, but I believe its a terrible mistake.
