Well, St. John’s has a bunch of players who were basically asked to leave by Pitino; our new coach (HURRY PLEASE) should look them up!

Kinda difficult watching Matt Bradley take charge down the stretch.

We're going to be a portal-heavy team next year. Which is fine as long as we make a good hire. Good luck to these guys and I hope they land somewhere good.

Not if we don’t hire an HC before it closes.

Players just have to enter by May 11. They don't have to select a destination before then. But, yes, we should be moving with purpose regardless.

There is not one player worthy of D1. Let them all go. Priority is getting players who can shoot!

TBH I don't know how many of our guys would start on other power 5 teams. Joel Brown is as quick as Tyger Campbell and should have been allowed to create more. But that wasn't the Fox offense if you can call it that...

Alajiki.

Damn.

This is what happens when you have incompetent leadership, let an historically awful HC finish the season, and dawdle with hiring his replacement.

I mean let’s be honest with ourselves it’s probably best we get a new team through the portal mark fox wasn’t a good recruiter and these are his guys

No arguments, but there were literally 2 guys I wanted to hold on to: Sam and Grant.

I get the old adage that we can finish 3-29 with or without you….but Alajiki was not without skills.

No. I could take or leave Celestine, though I'd rather he stayed. But coming back from a torn ACL...7 ppg scorer...some fans have made him out to be something he is not.

Alajiki was alright compared to what we had but I bet he goes to a mid major and doesn’t even start

I bet Kuany & Sam both have better seasons next year than anything they did at Cal.

Mark Fox was a disaster.

MISERABLE!!

But I guess I don’t want a new coach to have to bring in 8-9 new players…gotta have some holdovers…

I'd like a new coach to do exactly that. It's a new world, potential impact players abound, and there's not one of them on the bottom 4/5 of the Cal bench.

Grant Monty dev Celestine the 3 walk ons and the 2 incoming freshman than go attack the portal. Hopefully Mahaney comes home when Randy Bennett takes the job

That would be nice.

So much for that though...Bennett out of the running.
