With the high number of players transferring throughout college hoops, would be curious in knowing how many different explanations our board members can come up with. In no particular order, let me start the list. 1. Playing time 2. Homesick 3. Coaching change 4. Being over-recruited I have more thoughts but am interested in how you guys see it...

Not a huge fan of the guy, but Maciariello had a tweet today that revealed his saltiness towards the influx of players entering the portal. I gotta say I agree with him. The grass isn’t always greener and this is becoming a huge issue that guys just jump from school to school.

So seven players haven’t transferred out of St. John’s (as an example) due to Covid or having a “Free year”. Come on guys, what are the reasons?

I'm just saying that it's MUCH easier to hit the portal when you know it's a freebie. All the earlier reasons mentioned are in play for sure, but, well, free year.

Certainly makes sense...

Just saying it’s crazy how many guys are willing to bounce around. I was a college athlete and it would have taken a lot of issues for me to transfer - I was comfortable and had a good group of friends while getting a quality education. Can’t ask for much more. That’s where my confusion lies
