2023 Portal Transfers

[Uncle Rico]

Not necessarily. Wanted a mid to smaller school last year.

Minnesota media seems pretty confident about Madison being the destination

[BCHoopster]

If he is going to Madtown, does that mean Essigian is leaving?

This one is going to Madison

Could be. He flirted with a preferred walk-on here, even after he had his scholarship offer. Guessing he moves up, not sure it's all the way to a high major.

Wouldnt rule out Shaka getting Rohde if we have room.  Not a UW lock.

[Boston Warrior]

Andrew is a high character guy, dad was a place kicker for uw, brother mu soccer, sister northwestern basketball. Great family. My guess badger lean but if mu loses a person could be a logical recruit.

He and Joplin are tight so you never know

[MUfan12]

Curious to hear from those who have watched him play. Just looking at the numbers I don't know if I see a fit.

Yep. Only thing i'll say is he wanted a smaller/mid sized school the first time around.

Eddie Lamkin, TCU, 6ft 11, 280lbs center, commits to Georgetown.

Wyoming star big man Graham Ike has entered the transfer portal, per source. Missed this past season with an injury, averaged 19.5 points and 9.6 rebounds in 2021-22.

Is it a good sign that no MU player has entered the transfer portal yet? Or would we expect those decisions to take more time anyway?

It is a crazy time, and I was wondering the same thing. Almost wonder if guys chose to announce they are not leaving as well. It really is recruiting these for another year. I would hope any decisions will be made in short order, but that might be wishful thinking.

This still isn't official, per Lampkin himself. I fully expect it to happen, but they probably want to give some distance from the initial announcement to try to make it less obvious that there was tampering going on and that Cooley was recruiting him to Georgetown while still on the Providence payroll.

Well, we know at least one player has to leave.  My guess is the coaches gave the players a day or two to decompress from the loss.  Then conduct end of year meetings with the players this week.  Maybe some news Friday or Monday.

Someone put out a twitter post with him in a Georgetown uniform announcing his commitment.
Probably told that was not the time and retracted it for some reason, maybe what you stated.

That's a good point about potential "I'm staying" announcements. Everyone knew Justin Lewis had a decision to make after last season, so we always expected an announcement one way or the other. That isn't really the case for anyone this offseason. We don't even have any seniors eligible to return.

I could see someone like Tyler Kolek getting asked in a week or two and responding with something like "wtf are you talking about, of course I'm returning."

It would be great to have a team announcement with the guys coming back. That would excite the MU fans.

That seems like a reasonable timeline.

That would be something!

I expect everyone to have an "I'm Staying Home" Lebron-style announcement. (I kid)

I do hope we hear something at least to help from my neurosis perspective

"I'm taking my talents to Summer Fest!"

[GoFastAndWin]

"I'm taking my talents to Summer Fest!"

This is a great idea.
Have an ad with all the guys at a Henry Maier festival grounds picnic table with a Marquette banner covering a bunch of full plates of food and beer cans.... then have Shaka pull the banner off while the guys start chowing down and toasting each other. In unison the guys yell "we're taking our talents to Summerfest!" Followed by "and all staying to run it back at Marquette!" Then a team leader shuts the celebration down and the guys get to work training for the upcoming season.
The profits from the Ad go to BeTheDiff NIL.

Not a transfer but Armando Bacot is coming back for a 5th year at North Carolina.

[lawdog77]

Is he getting another acting role in Season 4 of Outer Banks? Wonder how much he made for Season 3.

Probably makes sense - he's not gonna play in the NBA, so why not come back and get some NIL money?
