So 5 said they were returning:

3 were Castleton, Appleby, Jurugi

Mann, Glover, Locke and Osifo are leaving

So 2 of the following said they were staying ...the other 3 apparently told MW they are leaving:

Lewis, Payne, Jitoboh, Lane, Ruz.

Interesting.

Locke needs to find a place where on offense he can just stand in one spot behind the 3 point line. When he is passed the ball, if open, he should shoot. If covered he should pass the ball back immediately from whence it came. Do NOT dribble as to embarrass yourself. Do NOT feed the post as to embarrass yourself. Do NOT attempt to play defense as to embarrass yourself. Just remain in that spot until your team regains possession of the ball. You have one basketball ability which is as a spot, up, stand still shooter. All other things basketball are not for you. But good luck in finding a place.
Similar to the tennis dictum: "stand in the alley and don't hit anything that doesn't hit you. "

I think he has a shot. You can’t teach 7 feet.

Cant blame anyone leaving. Mike white just isn't an enjoyable coach to play for. Players wanna go go go. When you constantly take the air out of the ball when you get a lead players get upset. I coached middle school basketball for a few years and even i knew that there came a point as a coach where i get out of the way and let the horses run

After watching so many team's "big-men" play in March Madness, Castleton has far to go in development. Those "bigs" are far more energized and quicker. Okay, I'll buy into the aforementioned idea that Colin is applying for the NBA just to gain knowledge and plans to return.? Hope so.

Castleton has a future in pro ball but needs to work on his strength and outside shot.

Anyone who doesn't think there's a problem within the bball program probably doesn't know why their shoes don't shine.

Don’t laugh, your comment is not really off base.
UF acts like a program that fully intends divert their attention to women’s sports.

Step one is to minimize the importance of men’s sports.

Step two is to remove any and all traditions or activities that connect the fans with men’s sports.

Step three is to lower expectations.

Step four is to ridicule and demean any descent.

Step five is to redirect funding and focus to the women’s side while suggesting that we are simply following the national trend.

From where I am sitting we appear to be between steps four and five............How about that Lacrosse team!

We can keep men's swimming and track. Those programs are perennial powerhouses. I'm sure that will please many of the posters here :)

Heard on the radio this afternoon that there are over 1,000 players in the transfer portal!
With like 340ish Div 1 teams, everyone could take 3 transfers. It’s becoming every bit as important as recruiting.
