Trajan Wesley portal

I bet they end up at Seaton Hall.

I don't think all of them will but who knows.

Here's what the portal looks like re: SBC

App: One player, not of consequence

Ark. St: Norchad Omier (POY, DPOY), Desi Sills (starter), Keyon Wesley (starter) Mario Fantina (didn't play much)

Coastal: Five players, none of consequence

Troy: Duke Deen (SBC Freshman of the year), TK Smith (22 games one start, Jakevian Leftridge (seven starts), Desmond Williams (29 starts, 7 ppg.)

Georgia State: Nelson Philips (sixth man)

Georgia Southern: Elijah McCadden (Sixth man of the year,) Gedi Juozapaitis (part time starter)

Texas State: Caleb Asbury (first team all conference)

South Alabama: Alex Anderson (17 starts)

ULM: Two players of no consequence PLUS Russell Harrison, who started every game. Second leading scorer and leading rebounder.

Thanks for the info Jay. This leads me to ask the question of why we retain a coach for roster retention when we can expect exactly what you posted? This whole decision and reasons stated for making the decision just don't make sense to me.

He was making up an excuse because he wasn’t allowed to make the decision he wanted.

I’ve noticed people contradicting themselves in this exact scenario.

“We can’t get rid of a coach because player x and y will leave.”

And then when they leave anyway: “Well, we have no control of the portal, so…”

Nailed it.

Won't disagree but the excuse was quite poor. He can't verify it on any front.

I completely agree.

Also in the end, he takes the hit for it, regardless of who made the final decision.

Had seen on Twitter a few days ago that Ty Harper committed to Eastern Washington but looks like it is official now.

And that should tell you it wasn't his idea.

The logic for keeping Marlin cumbled in one week.

Is a one week falling apart reason for keeping a coach the record for short lived logic? It has to be up there.

And that should tell you it wasn't his idea.

I would just expect the A.D. who is well regarded to be able to sell their reasons to the fanbase better than what he did.

3 starters from St. Peter’s hit the portal.

Imagine if we lost 3 starters to the transfer portal after making a deep run in the NCAA tournament
