I think you misinterpreted what I said. I don't like the NCAA allowing transfers in general because it's disruptive to student education. Furthermore if they get a 4 year scholarship guarantee that should require a 4 year commitment. JMO.
The Big Ten is a little different, but most D1 schools do not offer a 4-year scholarship. Rather, it is a 1-year scholarship that is renewed every year (unless if the school no longer wants the student, then they transfer).
Probably...the NBA is always looking for players who can’t score.
There's plenty of pro basketball that is not the NBA... That he would excell in
Ding-ding-ding we have a winner! I said this same thing in another post. This situations aren't exactly the same but similar enough that I'd love to see Harrar be the Mauti/Zordich of the team instead of the Silas Redd!
You really come across as an abrasive asshole.
He’s an above average defensive player and a below average offensive player who has improved his game. If he had gone to another P-5 program to start with, he likely would be playing for a lower level school right now since he would have transferred because he never would have gotten off the bench his first two years. So we got to put up with him during his really crappy years and OSU gets to enjoy him in his one best year....we should all be so happy for him.
I have former non d-1 players who played professionally, if he wants to go overseas he will find a spot.
Feelings aren't hurt at all, just you're hating on a talented player who gives it his all for no reason at all.
Yep, the guy will carve out a nice life playing basketball for money overseas or in the G-League
No worries Skippy.
You take this "rivalry" thing a bit too seriously. He leveled up and greatly increased his chances of dancing next year. I hold zero hard feelings with it all.
Is the poster hating for no reason at all or does the player give his all for no reason at all? Not clearly written. I would hope Wheeler has a reason to give his all....and the poster is hating on a player who is a Buckeye....that’s a reason. So your statement is incorrect.
So he’s bailing on his school, fans and his teammates so he can play a game or two in a tournament? Really? I can’t believe Mauti didn’t leave so he could play in a bowl game...what’s wrong with him?
He was @ PSU 4 yes, proved his loyalty, and apparently graduated. This is the world the NCAA has created and he is seizing an opportunity to play on a team that projects to have a better season next year than PSU. I have no hard feelings. PSU will probably get some transfers from the portal. Not a fan of all of this, but programs now have to adapt. I believe Coach Shrewsberry will improve the program as he builds brings in his type of player. It would be great if Harrar returned. We shall see.
I’d love to have him back because we’re thin at PG without adding someone...but I love that it gets Sessom more minutes, as he was very underutilized.
Just because the NCAA allows it doesn’t mean players have to use it. I have no hard feelings either, but I’m not going to hope he does well. Him doing well does not benefit our program in any way, shape or form. I would rather see him end up on the bench for the entire year.
Sessoms (and Abdou) will greatly benefit from a full OOC schedule this year
Good for him and good for you. Again, I am sure the O$U board will welcome you with open arms.
Thin but hearing Jalen cone from vtech is now a possibility. Very good shooter, would be good complement to sessoms.
Wow, his high school rating on 247 is 2nd only to Tony Carr's rating, higher than Lamar Stevens' rating.
Wants to play pg, which wasn't happening full time at vt. Dad came out and said he needs to play for someone who can get him to the nba. (Shrewsbury now helps get these kids more than other coaches with his celtics work) Listed 6 or 7 schools on twitter but main competitors are Indiana and Nebraska as well as ok st. Indiana is interesting with Woodson and having their 5 star young pg go portal. If Woodson convinces him to stay that eliminates them.
He named us in his top 7. It looks like he would be a nice pickup. Shot over 40% from deep as a frosh, like 36ish% last season.
What is it this time?
Interesting. I often wonder many of these kids get pushed out by the coach only to then get torn apart by "fans."
