2025 Transfer Portal

[tribecalledquest]

If you are feeling down because your team is losing players to the portal, keep in mind, a guy playing D2 last year led his team to a 30-3 record this year, a MVC title, a MVC tourney title, the NCAA tourney and just made All American.

If this can happen to Bennett Stirtz and Drake, it can happen to your team.

Right. I will continue to beat the drum - bad teams are going to have guys score points for them. It doesn't necessarily make them good players.

Tanner Cuff leaving Evansville as well. Sheesh.

Drake is a bad team? Interesting take.

No. I meant Evansville.

What? What are you even talking about? Evansville had players score points for them and they still lost.

Let's let the portal actually close and get them done playing first.

Lots of guys have said they're back and then they weren't...
