Moton out.

[cvilleagle]

See title.

[claver2010]

Just saw that, odd to say the least.

Need a (some) JUCO(s)

[eagle9903]

Not surprised.

With Moton and Humps gone, this is a fantastic opportunity for The Don to significantly upgrade the talent level. Let's see if he can do it.

If Rubin sticks around -- he'll probably get a scholarship for next year...

[HJS]

Makes the continued recruitment of Ennis and Orris make a lot more sense.

What ever happened to that Brady Heslip thread?

If nothing else, this gives some hope of straightening out the fouled-up class distribution before the next decade.

You mean Kyle Smyth Jr.?

Really? They didn't add anyone to the heavy class and they freed up scholarships for the next two classes. Were you kidding?

[joeyfenn]

better fill these holes with some real talent.

I hope he goes for quality and not just bodies

[SJeagle09]

give Cain Carney a schollie!

[EagleDave]

Gabe Moton was atrocious and this doesn't matter. True story.

[eepstein0]

This isn't a big loss. We're all set at guard anyway.

I'd imagine he lands in the CAA or something, which is his correct level of basketball.

[MattTheEagle]

This is fine, it means we can take an additional player for 2013/2014. I really like our PG situation and Moton must not have wanted to have to compete against Hanlan/Daniels. I thought Moton was a nice contributor and I think after we landed Hanlan (who I think will be excellent for BC), Moton must have felt crowded out. My question is where Moton would go? If he wants to get playing time (or a scholarship) I am guessing he will go to a micromajor.

I still prefer us not taking a PG, but I guess if we get an elite guard who can play both PG and SG that could be good. Most importantly we need forwards (particularly someone who can play SF like Tebbutt). If we land, Tebbutt it would be a nice improvement of our roster and would give us a group I would feel very comfortable making some noise.

[BCEagles25]

I like Moton. that said, he wouldn't have seen much time between Daniels, Hanlan, and maybe Ennis. so... he benefits by going a mid-major, and we benefit with the extra spot. good luck Gabe.

with Moton and Humps gone, we've lost our two best defenders.

There isn't going to be a whole lot of defense played this season for BC Basketball. Better hope the offense picks up.

[wildcat81]

Good luck Moton, but he probably want be missed defensively, because once the current guys get stronger all of BC weaknesses will be solved.

I was missing a significant point, that being that some of the potential^ transfers (ennis, reischel) are current freshman and thus would end up in the recruiting class of 2012 with Hanlan and Rahon after sitting, I thought all the potential transfers were sophomores (and thus would end up recruiting class of 2011 and thus increase the glut Dragiecivic, Cotton etc. are this) or post grad guys who could play right away (end up recruiting class of 2009 and thus make no impact on the glut regardless of moton) for some reason. Furthermore, I think redbaron's point has more weight if there is potential to add a transfer to the recruiting class of 2010 that we hadn't been looking at because of Moton's presence but I don't think there are too many junior transfers.

There are always juco transfers, of course, but that means getting someone substantially better than Tony Gill who can also qualify academically, so I'm not hopeful on that front.

Yeah, a juco hoops player at BC? I'll believe it when I see it. It would have been nice to see Moton stay because he would have added depth; but I think everyone agrees that the expectation is that the incoming freshman guards better be more talented basketball players.

Actually, there was a juco transfer PG at BC back in the Zuffelato era, but that was before the great public stink over the team's graduation rate. Since then, the academic gate keepers have made juco hoop transfers a practical impossibility; Gill must be very unusual in that respect for Donahue even to have taken a look at him.

[joeyfenn]

Any word on where Moton will look?

Xavier Singletary was a juco transfer.... He was also overhyped, and kind of crappy...
