Annnnnd make it 7 scholarship players...

Wichita State has another one in the transfer portal: Asbjorn Midtgaard. That makes 7 scholarship guys and one-walk on that have left Gregg Marshall and the Shockers.

Then Jeff Goodman...

Biggie lands with Tennessee Tech....

FWIW, here are the most recent NETs for the Cayman Islands Classic. If they seed based on this, we'll be the #1 seed. This is a tourney we should really be favored to win.

48 - UNI
71 - Oregon St
89 - Nevada
97 - Ole Miss...

I really wonder what appeal Drake has to him...

Iowa is actually over a scholarship for next year (unless somebody other than their 2 seniors have left?), so I don't know that they can make room for him, unless Fran pulls a McDermott and pays his kids way. Regardless, it's probably a long shot here...

Add one more to the list leaving Wichita, and rumor has it others are still contemplating it. This makes 7 total, 6 scholarship guys....

Does Bowen remind anybody else of Wes + being a better shooter? I haven't seen much of him, only highlights, but being left handed, so quick and athletic, and slighty undersized, it just really reminds me of Wes.

I was thinking the same. Fran is quite a hot head, but Gregg is just an arrogant prick - to put it nicely....

I think one was a walkon, but still, yikes. Including the senior who's gone, they're losing their top 3 scorers and their 6th scorer. And reading Shockernet, people are expecting even more guys to transfer....

Also, I don't know that it'll translate to anything, but spring sports athletes have been granted an extra year of eligibility. Makes sense since most (if not all) sports hadn't started or were early in the season. They will reportedly be discussing...

I don't even know what to expect after the starting 5. I'd imagine Carter becomes the first guy off the bench and gets a lot of minutes. Also have to think Betz role increases significantly. I do wonder if Borns shooting ability gets him past Kimmons...

Imo, it's hard to question circumstances like this. I don't know anything about it. We have to trust the experts, they know more than anybody. If they're treating it more seriously than prior virus', there's probably a reason....

I thought I read somewhere that the NCAA has some sort of insurance policy for a situation like this. It's not going to cover 100%, but it's something....

It sounds like there will be coaches fighting for another year of eligibility for seniors. This could be even more interesting than it already is.

What a terrible way for seniors to end their careers....

Greggggg isn't coming here until we get a better steakhouse. Jake and McD have no desire to play each other. SLU? Maybe...

Good question. I wonder how logical it is to push it back. With classes, arena scheduling, NBA draft stuff, weeks with no games being played, etc, I think it'd be tough....

Gobert tests positive and the NBA suspends the season. Wow

OKC Thunder game canceled after Rudy Gobert is sick and has symptoms similar to coronavirus... I could be way wrong, but I have a feeling this tourney isn't happening....

I kind of think the opposite actually. Which teams are playing won't effect viewership at all imo, especially the first weekend. It's the big dance, people will always be watching. Plus the NCAA has rewarded teams that travel well - look at bowl games....
