Hate that this has to be started in February.
Who stays? Who goes?
Team needs shooters badly even if both or one of JJ/PJ return.
I am excited for Kamari, Brayden and Cade to get into the program and then onto the court this fall. Expect all to make an impact.
As ever year, expect the Transfer Portal to be a buzzing NCAA wide. Coach Ryan and staff will finally have a full off-season to do their thing so who knows what contacts they have out there.
Go Phoenix!

Are any of the newcomers good shooters? For the position they play I'd say 2 are good shooters but I wouldn't say any are going to be snipers.

I think a lot of guys are going to move on. I also think a lot of those guys will never play for or at least never contribute to a D1 team again.
It's possible a few of the guys who would make an impact will go too. It won't be the end of the world if that happens.
Guys deserve a chance to find their own happiness in their hoops journey. Coach Ryan deserves a chance to have guys who want to play his way. It's all going to workout in the end for everyone, I believe that.

I hope both Blayton and Moore stick around. This team needs guards badly. So having two guys who have been around the team for a year would be a huge help.
If not, we need to grab a couple guys who would be immediately eligible this year to come in. I know easier said than done.

Knew this was going to happen. Guy was posting high light videos before the season even ended. Good luck to JJ!

Josh was a polarizing player. He made some big time plays to contribute to wins and then made some other choices that were the complete opposite of that. I wish him well even if I am not broken up by his choice.

Bound to happen eventually, but a shame it’s come to this.

Amari is not the kind of player you want to lose. He will land in a good spot and hopefully continue to do good things. Thanks for two fun seasons!!
With that said he's not irreplaceable either. He was a guy making the best of a tough situation that didn't fit his style. Inserting a player who likes this style of basketball may be good for GB.

I mean maybe a decade from now once this “program” is built up, but it’s not good when your two top scorers transfer, especially when Amari said he was gonna stick it out after last years turmoil. The near future doesn’t look good at all. This team, if PJ leaves, has maybe two D1 caliber players. The next few years are going to hurt, there is absolutely no way to sugar coat it. Have to wonder how much would’ve changed if we still had Linc. You all knew my feelings about hiring Will, and unfortunately, things are off to an awful start. Yeah, it’s one year in the most unusual season ever, but there is basically no foundation. Always next year gets tiring at some point.
