Personally this feels very positive. Would be an odd post I think if he was thinking of leaving. Of course I say all this having no idea what 18, 19 and 20 year old kids are thinking nowadays. I will be honest and admit I would think based of Beards body language at times, posts by his mother and lack of playing time he may not be happy. I think this reflects the contrary and again goes to show I and others have no idea what goes on in that locker room or what goes on in kids head. I have been a fan of Beard from day one. I hope he's here for 4 years! This is not a TB tweet. It's a GTown account. Hopefully they have inside information. Well, at least no response tweet from his family, right?

He is a good kid.
He has areas to improve his game.
Seems like a 2-guard trapped in a PG's body right now.
Biggest challenge for him was the transition to the college game. You could tell he was adjusting to the step up in competition.
Once he builds his confidence and finds and develops more of his game, he'll be fine.

Just odd to highlight a kid you gave no playing time to.

From what I saw in Instagram, it’s a combo tweet / post between TB and Georgetown hoops wherein both counts make the post together . It’s more than just tagging TB. I may be wrong but I think it’s the newer type of combo post.

Was that monster guard on Akron from last night's game vs. UClA a former teammate of Tyler. I think he was a junior from Whitney Young. He had a great performance last night.

Who knows what will actually happen but he also posted "Your only losing if your quitting" while sitting on the court with the GTown logo so it appears from the minimal we see in the outside world that we might see another year of TB.

Yeah - of note, since the staff changed out recruiting strategy post LeBlanc exodus, the only player who transferred out after that point seems to have been Berger (who may have only been brought on to entice his teammates, and wasn’t necessarily recruited) and he transferred to a better/different situation for himself. So yeah, hopefully it’s a sign that the staff has brought in players with better resolve this time around.

Sibley was the last recruit to sign before those November/December transfers took place, iirc. Then Tyler was the first of the new target recruit. A quick google search could prove me incorrect but that’s how I remember it.

The kid has potential, and I like his combo game, but he needs to add strength. He should live in the weight room this off-season.

A quick google search could prove me incorrect but that’s how I remember it. I was responding not on when Sibley signed or arrived, but when he left. You had Berger as the only player who transferred out after the LeBlanc et al exodus. Sibley entered the transfer portal after Berger, in late May 2021. Not trying to make any larger point, just liking accuracy.

I don’t think rock was disagreeing with you (and was acknowledging that you’re right about transfer our timing) - just making the point that sibley was the last recruit who committed to GU prior to the big set of departures so all subsequent recruits (beard and this whole class) may have known more what they were walking into and knew the challenge. I think the larger point is that hopefully Beard doesn’t jump ship and rises to the challenge / that may be his mindset given when he was recruited.

Looks like Tyler just announced he is entering the transfer portal.

Not a shock at all. Too bad as I thought he flashed potential though several may have had unrealistically high expectations for a freshman trying to break into a lineup. Obviously explains why the coaches have been looking at other PGs. Unfortunately this is probably just the opening salvo of what could be another mass exodus.

Shame, I liked his ball movement and when he was in we would get ahead of Seton Hall in BET but then he would get pulled out to play with no PG and then fall behind again. :/ Hope he finds success elsewhere

Bummer to see - had a feeling when he created a Twitter recently… Best of luck to Tyler - can’t blame him. Hope he finds success.
