Good luck to him-- And once again we are looking at a completely new roster with the exception of Parker & Williams (and what are the odds of either returning? slim & none)

As someone who also tore my ACL playing basketball at SHU in the rec center, I have a lot of sympathy for anyone who goes through this awful DEBICLE. All the best to him. Praying for his full recovery.

What kind of agent can Yon be and what kind of agency can WeShall Sports Management be if, no offense, you are repping a player who was a back of the bench guy on a 7-25 team before tearing his ACL and missing 95 percent of the next one? With thousands of players in the portal, the amount of people trying to cash in is even more extensive than what we think in our wildest dreams.

I believe that Felton is leaving just to simply try and earn more PT at a lower level.

Easy young man to root for and I hope for the best. Sha loved him and I wouldn't be surprised if he had something to do with this decision in the best interest of the player.

Best move for him. He's not a Big East player so by moving down he'll get more PT.

Absolutely a great young man.
Kind of surprising critical comment coming from you. If he was not a BE player then Sha made a big blunder in recruiting him and giving him a scholarship to play at the Hall. And then keeping him around for another season. So that's on Sha if what you say is true.

On the other hand maybe you are mistaken and Sha was right!

I think if he was not injured this past season we could say for certain one way or another if he is a BE player. I would not be critical at this point.

Lots of promising HS kids never pan out. Now they can leave to go play somewhere else and the school can do what coaches wished they could do with these kinds of players for decades.

Here's what I am facing.

When I post positive info for Seton Hall I am called by some a cheerleader or a mouthpiece for the school. When I post as I did with Felton, which by most accounts I am sure is fair and complimentary at the same time, I get criticism from you and others for my opinion.

Bottom line, I am neither extreme and try to be as honest and helpful to the fanbase as I can knowing nothing I do will make everyone happy..

BTW, tomorrow is my last day as a moderator. JD will be fully taking over the reins starting Thursday. I will continue to post at times but not nearly as much as in the past.

LOL

JD now has the time as he no longer has to take care of his recently deceased mom.

May she rest in peace.

Dan, the vast majority of posters appreciate everything you do for the board. There will always be some knuckleheads and Pirate Hoops has a few of those. Hope JD can reign in some of the personal insult nonsense. And keep your insights coming.
