Shayok apparently leaving Virginia, with enough credits to graduate and be eligible immediately.

Shayok apparently leaving Virginia, with enough credits to graduate and be eligible immediately. Shayok is talented. He was not used to full advantage in the UVA offense. He needs to be on a team where he can use his athleticism to attack more. Unfortunately, that is also a big part of the reason for our struggles! Otherwise he would be a great fit for us next year.

Ok cool , we should be seeing a few more JUCO prospects involved. I've watched Highlights of Stevens on youtube. Big kid and rebounds well. Shoots the 3 , blocks shots and has a good handle for a big man. The level of comp not the strongest , but you can see he plays hard and with some fire. They play the #1 seed (San Jacinto) in the NJCAA national tourney today I believe.

Elijah Brown is a quality player who announced yesterday he is graduating and leaving NM for his final season. The kid had an off year this year but in many ways reminds me of Pryor. Volume shooter, scores a lot but not always accurate, big guard, great FT shooter, and lax on defense at times. Got into trouble with his coach at times this year but definitely has talent and is the son of former NBA coach Mike Brown. Not certain he would consider Hoyas an upgrade at this point and normally I would see him as too much of a risk, but given our situation he is worth taking a look at. Hated this guy as an SDSU fan--he flops at the slightest contact. But he is a decent player and gets to the line. My main concern would be that he is very ball dominant. At this point we are looking for warm bodies, so he certainly fits the bill. I haven't seen him since he left Butler but I followed him closely in HS and unless he's improved greatly even with all our struggles he's not someone I would want for a year.

Are the assistants gone as well? If not, can they recruit without a head coach?

He looks to be in the same mold of Derrickson and Agau so not sure why he would come here.

Darius Thompson from UVA to transfer. Similar to Shayok, is on track to graduate early so could be eligible immediately.

No issues with UVAs program. Players that are leaving see the writing on the wall with PT. When you're passed by underclassmen and you haven't locked down minutes in the rotation it's probably time to go.

The transfer list is going to be massive. The NCAA needs to get a handle on this. 2 kids from Alabama available. Whoever our next coach is should be able to get one or two late recruits and one or two grad transfers (or true transfers) and the cupboard shouldn't be bare. With the turnover nowadays, you should be clicking by year three on a total rebuild. St. Johns is on target. If we keep our base, bring in a few late signee guards, we can go. Blueitt's tourney run is going to get him thinking league and he'll go. Everybody is going to be strong again next year.
