For what it is worth, JaDun Michael, the recruit who decommited had a positive tweet about Wichita State stating that he would rather not travel so far with everything that is going on right now. He is from North Carolina.

All of the players hitting the transfer portal doesn't look very good, but there have been problems since soon after conference play started. It isn't surprising that some players are transferring out after that, just surprising how many and how many of them played significant minutes.

That's called being politically correct. Playing his cards right. Let's be real, we all know why he decommitted. He has seen the mass exodus and probably talked to some of them.

Not major losses as they were injury prone, especially Bruninga, over the past few years

Three guys gone in two days. None are big losses.

Rey Idowu transferring to Tulsa.

We've been anticipating this; MSU's Tyrik Dixon and Ford Cooper have both entered the transfer portal . Bears have recruited a pair of pgs in juco Demarcus Sharp 6'4, and prep school Skylar Wicks 6'6. Dixon is a grad transfer while Cooper left HS a year early and could stand a rs year to get stronger even after playing last year. Puts Bears back to having 6 open scholarships.

While we were picked to win the league last year, I was pretty open about it not being by me. Didn't really like our roster mix . Right now we are down to 5 returnees and 2 recruits, and while I hate having that much roster churn in year 3 of CDF, I like who we have and if we can avoid some of the { politically correct statement here] "not so good choices" we made prior, we can be an improved team. We have a pair of solid scorers to build around in Mosley and Prim, so I'm not looking for stars, just solid pieces.
The Bear is the largest carnivore on the North American continent; beware the Bear!

I would almost bet my house that he ends up at Iowa, which (just coincidentally) had a scholarship open up yesterday

Brutal. He absolutely destroyed Bradley this year. As much as you hate playing against him, you hate to see good talent leave the league even more.
