I’ll take Kennard Davis and Cooper Schweiger, please! I’ll take All Wright, too, but we need size more than another small guard right now, but all three is fine if you twist my arm! Davis’ defense would fit in nicely with BW’s style!

I've got a theory that if you give 100 percent all of the time, somehow things will work out in the end. -
Wasn’t Osei-Bonsu from Missouri State entering the portal, too? That’s a guy I’d love to see in a BU uniform!Larry Bird

there is no mention of Osei-Bonsu going in the portal at this time (but who knows?)Originally posted by Tommy View Post
He is in an ideal place - he gets tons of playing time and opportunity and I can't imagine many other schools
that would give that much playing time or show that much interest in a 6-4 low post banger.
the top MVC players like Davis, Schwieger, Pozzatto and Wright are not going to stay in the Valley any more than Domask, Lance Jones, Rienk Mast, Alston Mason, Ja'Kobi Gillespie, Avila, Cade Tyson, Conwell, Swope, Rivera, Kent, Krikke, Benson, Okani, or Darian DeVries did. .... $Originally posted by Tommy View PostComment

6'8" redshirt freshman John McCrear of Murray State will be entering the transfer portal. He redshirted last year as a freshman, and this season he played briefly in only 4 games. - https://goracers.com/sports/mens-bas...-mccrear/10449

added Evansville's 3rd best player to go with their other two top guys entering the portal
- Cam Haffner
Summary so far- some pretty desirable players...plus a new one, McCrear
Gabe Pozzatto - Evansville (runner up for Freshman of the Year), Aces' 2nd best scorer
Tayshawn Comer - Evansville - Aces top scorer
Cam Haffner - averaged almost 15 ppg in conference games
Dez White - Missouri State - Bears' best player
Makhai Valentine - Missouri State - very promising freshman
Jurrell Baldwin - Missouri State - "" "" ""
Davion Hill - Missouri State (left before season started) - enrolled at juco and avg 14.3 ppg
John McCrear - Murray State - played little, redshirt freshman, can't imagine he'll land at DI
Kennard Davis - SIU - arguably their best player
Sheridan Sharp - SIU - 5 ppg reserve soph
Javon Jackson - UIC - Flames' top scorer
Joshua Reeves - UIC - a sub but averaged 9.2 min and 42% from 3-pt
Cooper Schwieger - Valparaiso - 1st Team all conference
All Wright - Valparaiso- Freshman of the YearLast edited by yoda; 03-18-2025, 01:10 PM.Comment

Really tough on Evansville to lose their top 3 scorers...
BUT .. does anyone remember a team that lost their TOP FIVE scorers and 8 or their top 9,
plus their coach, their AD & the entire administration from the TOP on down -
and the team lost 95+% of their scoring and rebounding all at one time, but then had 20 wins two years later,
-- and was back in the NCAA Tournament the next year after that, and then repeated again as Conference Champs
the following year as well!
All that after the most historic record-breaking total rebuid from scratch in the history of NCAA basketball,
and probably in the history of all college sports?
I do, and I never gave up - neither did thousands of great fans, donors, and supporters.
Some day, someone should get the facts rounded up, and write a book on all that went down and how it really happened,
including the lies and coverups from the people in charge (including some Board members) and which were even facilitated
and spread by our dishonest local sports editors and writers, and how it cost the University somewhere in the realm
of $20-30 million (maybe even more) in buyouts, damages, legal costs, lawsuits, overpaid salaries, lost pledges and
lost revenue from donors & fan support.Comment

just now entering the portal,
SIU's 6-3 sophomore guard from Indianapolis, Sheridan Sharpe...
played in almost every game, started four and averaged just under 5 ppg
He was a 2023 player with Indiana Elite AAU, the same program Connor Hickman, Ari Boya and Koch Bar came from and which
Coach Wardle has many connections.Comment

Bradley had some recruiting interest in Sheridan Sharp, but never offered. He played in 26 games and got 4 starts for Scott Nagy this season at SIU. He has nice size (6'3") and seemed to me to have nice point guard skills and was a good passer. But Nagy preferred to play shoot-first guard Ali Dibba at the point, which might have hurt them. SIU was 10th in the MVC in turnovers per game.Originally posted by yoda View Post
Sharp in just 17.7 minutes per game actually had more assists per game (2.3 apg) than Dibba (2.0 apg), who averaged about twice as much playing time (34.0 minutes per game).

For anybody that does not think NIL money has ruined the sport all you have to do is look at this list already of Valley players leaving for more money. Funny thing about NIL is this was suppose to be about players doing commercials and getting paid for that, it was never suppose to be pay to play.Originally posted by yoda View PostComment

Murray State 6'8" junior Kyeron Lindsay also entering the portal. he averaged 6.6 ppg and 4.3 rpg.
Lindsay spent his freshman season at Georgia, his sophomore season at Texas Tech., and was a junior this season at Murray State. His next school will be his 4th D1 school in 4 years.
Bio- KyeRon Lindsay - Men's Basketball - Murray State University Athletics
Stats- KyeRon Lindsay Career Stats - NCAAM - ESPN
He looked to me like he has a lot of talent, but when he played, it appeared he was never giving 100% effort, and maybe even dogging it.Comment
