Basketball transfer portal

That is somewhat of an overreaction. Many of the teams in the SBC are losing their best players. Once their season’s end, App and JMU are likely to suffer the same fate. Not just an issue in the Sun Belt. Happening in spades throughout the country. As far as we’re concerned, I have no clue who else leaves other than Fulks. Nothing would surprise me at this stage.

When we become a glorified farm system for P5 programs it becomes not worth spending hard earned money on any longer. JMO

I understand that viewpoint. Fans of many schools will reach same conclusion. Goes for football as well.

Yep. Football is trending the exact same way.

This is getting so prevalent in our MBB program that it doesn't even surprise me anymore

It just isn’t our program. Last years numbers averaged over 4 players per team transferring. It is total free agency.

Jessie Evans brought in very talented transfers every year and it seemed to work

Of course he was able to keep and develop his high school recruits and just add to them with transfers

JE wasn’t competing with NIL. RCAF needs independence yesterday. Football, now MBB both lose guys we needed to stay.

This is beyond NIL at this point..

Joe Charles is a local guy, recruited from the ground up by UL. When he makes what many here will describe as a "lateral move" to another in-state school or similar, it's all the evidence you need that these players are trying to flee a sinking ship.

Playing in front of 800 fans, and for a coach who publicly confirmed that his main goal every year is to try and win the conference tournament, steal an NCAA bid, and cash in on all of his bonuses and incentives that that provides.... I'd want out too

It looks like Joe Charles has entered the transfer portal.

The way his dad was attacking fans on Twitter, this one is not a big surprise although I wish he would have stayed

Who says he’s going to a P5?

[UL_Cajuns]

There is a reason he is leaving. That debacle at the end of the season has a lot to do with it. His dad is a classy guy. Met him a few times. I don’t blame him for leaving when the fan base has given up on this coach and the admin will not get rid of the coach. Mcneese will beat us again next year. lol.

I wouldn’t want to play for Bob Marlin either.
