Re: NCAA D-1 Men's Basketball Transfer List (so far)

by DoubleDipper Tue Apr 10, 2012 1:49 pm

UPDATE - About 100 names added to the list that was posted two weeks ago. Total D-1 players on the transfer list is now over 300!

(Schools in lower case letters following the player's name and the school transferring from, means that/those schools are being strongly considered. Schools in all caps means the player has committed to that school).

He wasn't too bad at Saint Mary's in that regard, and his Early years with the Ducks were actually very good, but his last two years were pretty dismal. Based on them, the ducks would be joining UCONN on the sidelines next year

Coach Ernie Kent

2008-09 870
2009-10 912

The average team APR in basketball is 945.

Lower than 930 over two years will render you inelligible to compete in the tournament.

Well, looks like this is not happening: Ernie Kent

by DoubleDipper Wed Apr 11, 2012 1:07 pm

From CBSSports:

Colorado State's plan to hire Ernie Kent has been blocked by a high-ranking administrator and the school's coaching search is now back on, a source told CBSSports.com on Wednesday.

"It was done and somebody vetoed it," a source said. "Now Ernie is out."

CBSSports.com reported late Tuesday that Colorado State and Kent had reached a deal in principle, after which Coloradoan.com reported that a source at the school told it Kent had been hired, too.

But a source told CBSSports.com on Wednesday that an administrator stepped in late and essentially blocked Kent's hire from happening "for some reason," and that Southern Miss coach Larry Eustachy is back involved and considered the leading candidate.

So, now our esteemed NCAA D-1 schools are backing off coaches as well as players.

Probably best to give the school the benefit of the doubt, but it shows how BIG BUSINESS D-1 sports has become!

Now we can again begin that discussion of paying athletes a stipend to play. What is the status of that; is it a done deal and in place?

You know, that is just crap! It's about time the NCAA supported the athlete side of student/athlete -- the kids make millions every year for the NCAA. I'm sure Admiral Farragut would say, **"Damn the torpedoes, full speed ahead!" to stipends for the ones who bring in the huge TV contracts and endorsement deals.

NCAA D-1 Men's Basketball Transfer List (so far) - Page 2 Damn_t10

NCAA D-1 Men's Basketball Transfer List (so far) - Page 2 Damn_t10

Yes, you're correct, that is NOT Admiral Farragut's ship, the USS Hartford. Although the battle ship depicted may now be outdated, it had a hell of lot more fire-power than the admiral had during the Battle of Mobile Bay. In that battle, in which a number of vessels were sunk by tethered mines, the bulk of his Union fleet finally entered the bay and took the last Confederate controlled port in the Gulf of Mexico -- August 5, 1864.

** the admiral actually said, "Damn the torpedoes! Four bells." (But that lesson is for another day).

Do they teach this stuff in school anymore? study

by Geezaldinho Wed Apr 11, 2012 2:32 pm

I went to the college where the Civil War Institute is located.

What he actually is reported to have had his signalers flag was is " go ahead" followed sometime later by a shout of " Damn the torpedoes".

There may have been some confusion with that, as the signal was sent by Army wig-wag, and all the Army dudes were prudently hiding below deck. There were no Navy semaphore folks on board the other ships.

Congress gave John Farragut ( or David, if you prefer) $50k for the capture of Mobile. That was a fortune then.
I wonder if Swartzkoff got any bonus for Bagdad?

And why, at the very moment that all the guns of formidable Fort Morgan were bearing down on him, would he care that the ship was halfway through a watch? I would have imagined that would be irrelevant when you are at battle stations....

Oh yeah. The only ship lost to mines as a result of the action was the Union monitor Tecumseh, which due to the fact it was heavily armored and had no watertight bulkheads, went down in 25 seconds.

And that was before either the signal or the shout.

And it is probable that the band on the Titanic did NOT play "nearer my god to thee" as it's final song. The tune was most likely "Autumn".

The one in PA that gives out the Shaara award and counts Bill Frassanito as an alumnus ( my classmate and a damn good soccer player)
http://www.gettysburgdaily.com/?p=8840
and also counts Dwight Eisenhower as a former trustee and is also the home of the Eisenhower institute. The other civil war institute is an impostor.
( oh yeah, Ron Paul is an alumn Embarassed

Give HIM credit for being a good track star.)

As to how selective it is, I'll remind you they accepted me.

I understand Paul Allen is helping out with the AD search.

Another transfer to the WCC: Loyola Marymount has landed Binghamton transfer Ben Dickinson; the 6-9 big man put up 13.5 points and 6.1 boards as freshman last year.

Based upon what's been going on at Binghamton, I'm sure Ben will find LMU a Las Angeles breath of fresh air (on the days there's an off-shore breeze).

Sailor, you've been with the program longer than me (recently), but UP has been a little shy about college and JC transfers in recent years. Sure, we've had them (TJ Campbell and Canaan Chatman still my favorites), but we know Rev loves to have his players develop together, feeling that it takes at least one year to really buy-in to the system.

Yes, you're right, the WCC is at least a three or four team conference now (in men's basketball), but could easily be a six or seven team conference in the near future. With the addition of AD Scott Leykam in July, there's new hope that we can be a part of that six or seven.

Now, if we just had a really stellar point guard.........................

Double Dipper, I cpuldn't agree with U more, BUT when push comes to shove u havve to take some action. If U don't keep upwith the Jonses then u get the scraps and its doubly hard to catch up I feel that this season coming up is where we'll see just where we are.

Bye the way UR presen ce was sorely missed at the introduction of the AD this afrernoon, but it wasn't the only fau paus, Fr. Bill forgot to intrduce the WCC Comish. also Gads.

Ha, ha, yea I noticed he missed, but made up for it at the end and asked the Commish to stick around for questions. I had just finished playing golf in Palm Desert at 2pm and watched the whole thing online while sitting my air-conditioned car.

Who was the woman who introduced Fr. Bill, and then wrapped it up? I'm guessing a PR lady. Stoney?

Shooting guard James Walker (6-3, 180), out of Citrus College (Derrick's school), has signed with St. Mary's. Unlike our Derrick, Walker is a scorer, averaging over 19 ppg this year. Walker will have two years of eligibility with the Gaels.

Sigh, our time will come..........

Penn State sophomore guard Matt Glover of Orange, Calif., will transfer from the Nittany Lion basketball program to San Francisco. Glover will be forced to sit one year before going on “active duty” at USF.

Glover played in all 32 games for the Nittany Lions this season, his first at Penn State, and averaged 23.5 minutes per contest while starting 21 games. The 6-4 guard posted averages of 2.8 points and 4.2 rebounds per game and was third on the team with 27 steals.

Coach Walters loves those guards.

And, another transfer to the WCC.................

Pepperdine has signed UCLA 6-foot-9 forward Brendan Lane. Lane will graduate this June and will enroll at PU as a graduate student and be immediately eligible to play one more year.

Lane was among the top-20 power forward recruits in the nation out of Rocklin High School, but never quite developed into a top-level player with the Bruins.

Well, about the only thing the Bruins front line has developed over the last few years is disappointment, restraining orders and misdemeanors.... It will be curious if he has a Jason Keep-like effect on the PU program if he IS indeed as talented as the recruiting services deemed.

Some mid-major watching experts are saying LMU is primed to be a force this coming season, but I noticed that Jarred DuBois, a 6-foot-3, 180-pound guard is graduating and heading to the University of Utah and graduate school and is immediately available to play.

DuBois played three full seasons for the Lions and part of a fourth before a foot injury. He scored 1,139 points to ranked 23rd on the school's all-time scoring list, averaging double-figures each year.

During his tenure at LMU, DuBois made 148 3-pointers; shot 84.4 percent from the free-throw line; dished out 233 assists; and recorded 117 steals. Those are great numbers!

So, LMU loses Du Bose, who scored a combined 23 pts against UP last year, and also Drew Viney (22 pts) and LaRon Armstead (17 pts) to graduation. Ouch!

345 – The number of schools with D-1 basketball teams

44 – The number of head coaching changes in D-1 basketball at the end of the 2011-12 season

453 – The number of D-1 basketball players who have/will transfer from their school to another at the end of the 2011-12 season

I guess we made our contribution to the transfer numbers, but in the long run, both Tim and the team may be better off.

We didn’t lose our head coach, but we lost a significant coach, person, and mentor when Joel moved on to Valley Catholic.

Do you think he’ll be back one day?
What about a replacement; any rumors?

In the massive transfer list compiled by CBSSports, which stands at approximately 425, there are at least 25 players who are exploring the fifth-rule transfer rule. The number is actually closer to 50 -- which stands at more than 10 percent of the overall transfer rate. Many of them are doing it for the right reasons………
