Can we switch that "heavy" on Cosby over to Purvis now.... I like the Marquette tool commenting as if
Royce had legal troubles - still does I guess in another regard yet he was a great Cyclone - so I wouldn't shy away from any player with Fred at the helm. Quick edit - I don't know about the troubles so I reserve judgment. I don't think we take just anyone.
Nallen and others - you guys know more about this stuff than I care to follow but what is the draw to Cosby - can he play right away? Shoot like crazy?
law and fowler are both walk-ons wouldn't change the scholarship picture if they leftI expect(ed) we'd lose a guard or two, and I thought it might be possible Percy would decide to leave as he just seems to drift away each year come Big 12 season. Hard to say though, because I think Percy has tons of potential to be a good big man for us these next 2 years. But I was thinking Okoro maybe, because I know he had to leave the team for a few weeks in February to be with family if I remember correctly. And he is from NY, which is where last years transfer, Tavon Sledge, was from. My other guess was Aaron Law or Cameron Fowler, or both, since they are being recruited over.
OK, this I was not aware of. Thought Fowler was scholarship from last year, and Law being from North Carolina I am surprised to hear of a walk on playing so far from home. Thought most walk-ons were Iowa boys.law and fowler are both walk-ons wouldn't change the scholarship picture if they left
When was the last time this program didn't have any attrition? It happens to mostly every program every year. The scholarship will come from somewhere, it always does.

This along with the NC State transfer are no brainers. When talent like that becomes available, you have to persue it and let the chips fall where they may. Let Fred figure out where the scholly comes from.Cosby will have to sit out in the 2013-14 and will be able to play in the 2014-15 season as a RS Jr. He averaged 12.6 ppg and 3.0 apg in the 2012-13 season at Seton Hall.
That's why it's so funny they make fun of ISU. Missouri and Marquette both get transfers all the time now.Missouri has copied Fred's business model- they have been going after transfers hard the past two years.
