If I were Grant...I would transfer to Kirkwood, SCC, MCC, or Indian Hills first.

That could be bad for us, though. Afterall, it's about us, not him.

It definately was down to us and the Zags! I remember clearly being disappointed when he ended up choosing them over us. He's a big guard 6'5 or so, I would think WE would be in the drivers seat. Plus like others have said, hes the "type" of player who could probably excel playing for and learning from Fred. This would be a gReAt transfer to get IMO!

I haven't seen him play for Gonzaga. His stats are underwhelming, but he was a redshirt freshman. He's got pretty good size, he was a relatively highly touted kid out of Linn-Mar, and I know Iowa and ISU were both after him.

Should we be after him?

Here we go again . . .

Second thought...Doesn't do him any good on the academic side of things. Can only transfer so many credits..65, 70, I can't remember.

redshirting is pretty messed up in today's game. the school doesn't get anything out of it when a player transfers....and the players lose a year of college playing time. you gotta really love your school if you decide to redshirt....

I would agree, but I wasn't going to be the one to say it.

If he goes to CU, then he obviously knows that he isn't good enough to be a top tier D1 basketball player.

maybe we can sign him after he transfers from creighton?

**Clonefan32** · 05-05-2010, 01:43 PM

Can't blame him for wanting to go to CU given Coach McDermott's excellent track record of developing players, such as... **crickets**.

What do we base the future on? The past.

And how, exactly, do you know this?
