Men’s team - Haven’t seen anything lately with transfers. Are we done?

You seem to have no understanding of CU basketball history or the current state of college basketball. Perhaps you should educate yourself before posting to reduce the embarrassment factor

That's just since 2018. Obviously transfers are a big deal in college ball right now but you don't see the elite recruiting teams like Duke dealing with THAT many tranfers. They've recruited 10 five-star players over the same span, and they're all still there or drafted. Only one guy transferred in to my knowledge (not like they needed him).
So maybe YOU should learn something and reduce the embarrassment factor. We build our teams on the shifting sands of the transfer portal and the good teams in the country don't have to because they're good at recruiting and retaining recruits. We suck at that. That was my point. Now is there anything else I can help you with?

I'll tell you how we can be like Duke and sign a bunch

of 5 star players.
It's simple.
1. Time travel back about 70 years and not make some major mistakes administratively that de-emphasized basketball. 2. Then time travel to about 40 years ago and hire Coach K before Duke did. 3. Hire administrators in the 80s and 90s that realized that football and basketball can coexist. This would've likely meant losing Danny Ford under unfortunate circumstances, but we lost him that way anyway so this wouldn't have been as bad as it seemed. 4. Transplant a new set of fans that care about basketball and support it consistently.
If we had done these things, we too would've likely signed 10 five star basketball players over the last few years.

He is being optimistic.
I would have said to go back 100 years... The 1920s are when we started subsidizing the assistant football coach with the "basketball position" while other programs were hiring full time basketball coaches.
70 years would get us to 1951 or only 5 years before Press, that isn't far back enough.

Your assessment is better than mine.

I didn't go back far enough.

now that Clemson can now legally buy players like so many other programs have done over the years under the table.

Clemson fans can barely show up for basketball games so I doubt they would be willing to actually invest in the program

Right, because caring about basketball at Clemson

is forbidden aside from January to March, and then only if we aren't in the football playoffs and it's not football recruiting season.
You are doing a great job upholding the football fan stereotype, Bubba.

You were whining about a basketball post 26 days before football season starts.

Well, looking at the roster. If/when Hall gets in foul trouble we have no backup. I guess we just go to a four guard lineup.
