I think Blood already has a deal and it affected his play. That was technically a violation.

What is your basis for believing he had a deal? This kid stayed with the program for 5 years and played hurt this year. He graduated already and has been a hard working credit to the University. Some of you are way out of bounds with these comments. l wish this young man nothing but the best.

At the beginnning of the season, SD thought this was Foster and Heins last year anyway so his leaving was to be expected

Players can "explore" the portal so dont necessarily have to xfer. Coaches have hiring rumors all the time and then suddenly they get a new bigger contract with the existing team. This can be no different.

Marcus has been a great player for Dins. Wish him well in whatever he chooses (which SD hopes its to stay)

Ouch. Hate to lose Whitt. Thought he could really make a huge impact next year.

Get off your damn high horse. If you are a moderator, accept my apologies, if you are not, kiss my ass.

Just note that Whitt is also a grad transfer so will get his degree. Bronson should get plenty of playing time next year. We now have 3 schollies to fill.

Tough guy on a keyboard. Trying to hurt the reputation of a college kid then whining and bitching when you get called out. Move on.

To be honest, there was a log jam with the roster next year if all came back

Already had 10 players that could play then add the two frosh + 1 xfer in

Brunson and Humphries were studs in HS. Bruson may be able to play PG

With Whitt and Foster leaving, Pegues will probably be pre-season POY

SD's starting 5 should be:

Pegues
Simth
Bowser
Hein
Williams

Second 5

Big man xfer in F
Brunson PG
Hughey F
Vanderwahl F
Humprhies SG

Still leaves Molinar. If he could get a scoring game going, could be in the mix

Ouch!!

I hate to see anyone leave, but it is what it is.

Carter Whitt- I was really looking forward to seeing him play next year. I wish him the best moving forward!

Marcus Foster- thanks for all the good memories. I likewise wish him the best moving forward!!

I wouldn't count on Williams coming back. Just hope it stops there.
