Why decommit, right now they are starters without even stepping foot on campus. Our 4 recruits plus 2 remaining players (1 a walk on) are the extent of the App State men's basketball team.

Freeman is in the portal but apparently intends to cast his lot for early NBA draft hopes. (Per UWisconsin-Milwaukee post)
If it happens to the Apps, it happens to me!

Re: 2024-25 Roster Breakdown & Wishlist
Are some of these guys entering the transfer portal because they think it's cool? It's gotten beyond ridiculous now. I absolutely don't get our (former) players leaving unless they have absolute certain spots in better (relative term) situations. Apparently the term run it back is dead. These dudes could care less about the school they are enrolled at. Personally I can do without the canned Twitter/X crap most seem to cut and paste. It's a free country so leave if you want but spare us the bull shite.

He would be a huge land. Unfortunately, probably P5 bound.

Re: 2024-25 Roster Breakdown & Wishlist
Ideally I don't want to either but if Kerns told them there is a chance he is leaving and that is why then I would not be opposed. I don't think he did though. If they just did it to see what interest they get and have portal regret then no I would not either.311neers wrote: ↑Thu Mar 28, 2024 12:40 pmI know we want to win, but I’m not letting anyone back on my team that walked.AppStFan1 wrote: ↑Thu Mar 28, 2024 11:39 amI'm with you.

Kerns demands a BIG raise and if they meet it then all these guys on portal come back with him. If not, everybody is gone? Basically team union forcing school to up coaches salary or else.
Who knows? Does anybody have a better explanation?

Re: 2024-25 Roster Breakdown & Wishlist
WHY WOULD A HEAD COACH TELL HIS PLAYERS HE IS LEAVING???? That never happened - made up theory on this board, a Head Coach would unlikely even tell his assistant he is leaving.AppStFan1 wrote: ↑Thu Mar 28, 2024 1:54 pmIdeally I don't want to either but if Kerns told them there is a chance he is leaving and that is why then I would not be opposed.

If those talks with a potential are happening they wouldn't want to harm chances of gettin the 'new' job and letting it leak.
They would tell an assistant after the contract is signed to tell the players to go in the portal and follow me to the new school. happens this way each year in every sport and even in the business world all the time.

Re: 2024-25 Roster Breakdown & Wishlist
I said "if" he did. I personally don't think he did for the reasons you mentioned. I believe that a few players had schools reach out and offer money, one wanted to get close to home, and the others went in either due to concern over sinking ship or they wanted to just see if they could upgrade their situation.DenverOfTheEast wrote: ↑Sun Mar 31, 2024 5:35 pmWHY WOULD A HEAD COACH TELL HIS PLAYERS HE IS LEAVING????

At least the social media posts from our basketball players spared us the bad grammar and messy sentence structure we've become accustomed to seeing.

Re: 2024-25 Roster Breakdown & Wishlist
I have always felt that way about someone who leaves the team for whatever reason and then changes their mind. I can't really say I feel the same today though. The whole landscape has changed and taking these hard lines could be an example of cutting off your nose despite your face. The question (in my opinion) is whether the kid will be committed for the upcoming season if he returns. Frankly, that seems to be all that can be reasonably expected. It's a sad situation but seems to be the case.AppStFan1 wrote: ↑Thu Mar 28, 2024 1:54 pmIdeally I don't want to either but if Kerns told them there is a chance he is leaving and that is why then I would not be opposed.

Re: 2024-25 Roster Breakdown & Wishlist
So the girlfriend says to the boyfriend. We've been dating a year or two, and I know we had a really good year, but I am going to check out the field and see if I can get anything BETTER than YOU. A few weeks or a month later she comes back. Hey, let's "continue" dating. You are a great guy. I think you are the BEST.
While she was out checking out the field, did he do some "dating" on his own to find something better?
What do you say? How do you feel? Can the dude ever trust her again? Should he take her back?
Another couple, girlfriend hooks up with Deacon because he has money and rolls with the in crowd.
Another couple, girlfriend hooks up with Louie but later finds out he just keeps baby in the corner.

Marcus Jr and Alston have signed NLI I believe.
Not sure about Stanbeck and O’Kelly.
With the 2 recent commits we have 8 scholarships filled and 5 remaining?
