I feel like SBT & Diallo would've actually gotten time this year. Losing these players while keeping the Meznieks and Reyes' of the world does not seem like an optimal strategy for a team that did not win an ACC game last year.

Not surprised by this transfer other than that it didn't happen right after the season. SBT never felt to me like a true fit within the program, it was more of a marriage of convenience when he left St John's relatively late in the process and needed somewhere to go and we happened to still have open spots. I don't think SBT is the type to be happy as a backup and that's where things were probably headed here, and I am not sure he was as close with the rest of the team as some other players are. I could see him averaging maybe 16-18 points a game in 2 or 3 years if he chooses the right mid-major. The optimistic take here is that he transferred (a la Jordan Daniels) after seeing Graves in person and being passed on the depth chart. I have no idea if that is actually the case, it just makes the timing make sense.

Fuck roster balance, this sucks. SBT was an aggressive kid with guts, which is something that this program has been severely lacking. Can't wait to see which soft, 5th-year Euro kid Jimmy Mac brings in as a replacement. I bet he'll be able to hit a lot of 3s in practice.

Wonderful news:

Can I ask a follow up:

Are they both transfers, or is one a 5th year, and one a class of 16 or 17 signing?

How much impact are we looking at with both? Are they both rotation players next year?


That is not a follow-up question, that is a follow-up interview

he's a headcase with an attitude problem. back in the beginning of the season mrs. mac told us he was benched to try to inspire an "attitude adjustment." i'm guessing the babysitting methods of coach small time didn't work and sbt will take his talents and attitude to another program (and likely succeed as do most talented hoop players that leave this shoddy program)

The kid was basically JR Smith and everything that comes with that. It's annoying he left because behind Graves, Robinson and Bowman we have no depth at guard. Milon and SBT weren't awesome or anything, but were more than adequate off the bench.

The big man situation is still a disaster.

so all in what exactly did we get from last season:

By minutes played:

1. Carter - ool
2. Robinson - good
3. Clifford - gone
4. Turner - got good run but got very timid towards the end of the season / Carter presumably impacted
5. Owens - What's his status again?
6. Erv - ool
7. SBT - gone
8. Milon - gone
9. Hicks - what's his status? He stopped playing right?
10. Diallo - gone

So out of our top minutes guys, on a winless team, we have 1 good, 1 lets hope hes good, an ool (erv), and 7 gones

not exactly what you'd hope for out of tanking for a year.

i personally think people are beyond delusional re Graves. not to go all starz...but the guy was a 3 star, and he's gonna be an 18 year old, 160 pound kid going against acc competition. People act like this guy is gonna walk in and carry the team from day 1. and all from youtube clips. Even if he's JRob talent or slightly better, this team is still gonna be a flaming shitshow next year.

SBT transferring is not a big problem, the problem is that the program is so pathetic right now and as a result we've become so desperate that we're clinging onto guys who don't belong on this level. Is he probably better than most of our returning players? Yes, but he is overconfident and lacks the physical tools to be a true contributor to a decent ACC team.

I've never been sold on Christian, and his reset on all but two of last year's freshmen isn't instilling me with any more confidence in him as the long term answer. I really hope the school doesn't ever try to use the number of players transferring as an excuse to give him longer to prove himself worthy of coaching on this level. Every day that goes by I feel stronger that Bates, JC, and Daz all need to go.

He's a jack it up at the rim bench scorer, which he proved last year he was pretty good at.

All I have to go on is when I sat behind the bench multiple times last year, his attitude was absolutely horrific. Maybe it's on the coaches to fix that.
