Darian Norris granted transfer from Bradley

This had better be the last departure. We can't be getting 4-5 new players every season. Continuity has never been a strength with this regime, we can't be having these line changes. Another departure and I don't like where this is going.

Agreed.

This is bizarre to me. Like I said before, he had to know the situation coming in.
 
When is the last time there WASN'T a season where a scholarship player left the program with eligibility left?

I think DN would have been 6th on the guard depth chart next season. AW, DD, CR, SM, EM. If the open slot would be taken by a really good freshman guard next season, he may have fallen to 7th on the depth chart. I can certainly see that his minutes next season would be about the same or less than this season. Good luck to him and hopes he lands at a good program.
 
I really liked DN. He and Les had to have discussed that he wouldn't be playing point guard probably ever.

He's gonna have to sit out a year now - why not just sit out next year at Bradley? Best of luck DN.
 
Wow. This does not make me happy. I really liked Darian as well as our other freshmen. I mean, he's a freshman! What did he expect? Clearly, the coaching staff likes him to give him lots of PT for a freshman, and he could have made bigger contributions down the road.
 
Wow. I never got the impression that he was unhappy here. I was worried about his minutes next year with Warren coming back. Maybe he was too.

I really thought he could be another Will Franklin. I wish him the best even though it's sad to see him leave.
 
I really liked DN too, but it was obvious who the point guard of the future was. DN was probably too small to successfuly shoot 3's over the zone. Our newest recruit should be much more able to be the zone buster..... Thank God! :)
 
Wow! I'm shocked also! I really liked his game. Too bad it didn't work out but I wish him all the best wherever he lands.

Also on board with BradleyBrave. Hope this is the last this year.
 
I don't like this recent tourney "homecoming" stuff.
This year we were supposed to be in the Alaska shootout? And lost WE for the year.
Next year we are supposed to be in a Vegas Tourney and already lost DN...
 
DN is a great kid, from a great family.
Darian is basically a 5'11" shooting guard in Bradley's system. Since Sam M. has 2 more years, and Eddren has 3 more, coupled with Chris Roberts and Dodie Dunson having 1 more year, and Warren back for 2 more, and Darian could see he wasn't going to get much more playing time next year, and he wasn't going to play point guard. We Bradley fans never got to see all of Darian's skills. He will be OK, and Bradley will be OK.



Good Luck Darian!
 
I'm sad that DN left. I hope he wasn't run off because of some bigger, perhaps more talented guards that were showing strong interest (Eastman, Simms-Edwards). I don't think that he was though. With a healthy AW, it's a crowded backcourt next year, and anyone can see that. I wonder how long this has been known by the staff.

Again, this was all in place when he got here. :confused:
