Who’s Back Next Year

[ZombieKissinger]

With all our transfers in and COVID years and the coaching change, is there any idea who’ll be on our basketball team next year? Don’t have a good sense of who’s staying and leaving

Howland indicated Molinar was leaning towards returning. I’m not sure what he has left to prove in college ball.

Moore, Watts and T. Smith have already used transfers.

 

[Mr. Cook]

This is a good question. Are there any deadines to when decisions have to be made?

Have to admit I don't follow until I learn someone has hit the portal

Molinar has the talent for the NBA but his poor shooting isn’t going to wow anyone.

 

[Mr. Cook]

I'm hoping Garcia stays

Javian Davis is gone so I don’t think there’s a limit on transfers

Molinar- he has to prove he can reliably shoot from deep. Even if he has nothing more to prove(he can always improve a/to ratio too), it may be best for him to stay because he may be viewed in a better light next season if there is more team success.
He is a player who will need to play their way into the NBA vs just be picked based on projections and hope.

As for Tolu- he transferred, but had to sit out a year. If he graduates this spring, he could leave and play as a grad transfer elsewhere. Or he could use the 1-time immediate eligibility transfer process that now exists.

May 8. It’s always May 8 at State.

He is graduate transfer. So, one transfer before you graduate.

Undergrads that have already transferred either have to go pro or drop out of D1.

Unless they graduate, Jeffries, Moore and Watts have used their one-time transfer. So I’d expect the three of them back. Unless there is a mass exodus, the talent will be there for next season.
