"Corbelo goes" where? Is he transferring or are you talking about the draft?
Goes to the league.

Assuming Kofi is coming back, there's only 1 ride open. And that's for a 4. So, no chance.VT just lost Durr. Coming with Frazier?
If this is directly related to Frazier, that’s promising for his ability. On the other hand, hopefully we don’t lose a recruit.VT just lost Durr. Coming with Frazier?

Pure centerId be careful with this as some in this board were already hurt about chin and OA leaving and probably would have exploded if any of our guys left with them.
That said, if a scholly guy transfers out, I could see us going after him.
Question for the board, I’ve never seen Payne play. Is he a good enough shooter/handler that he could play a stretch 4 next to a true center for stretches? Or is he purely a C himself?
Durr’s stats are somewhat underwhelming. A 7-0 who shoots 41% and averages a 3 attempt a game while shooting 20% from there. He did shoot 49% and 51% in previous years, but, again, not great for a 7-0. He does seem to rebound well though.Id be careful with this as some in this board were already hurt about chin and OA leaving and probably would have exploded if any of our guys left with them.

He doesn’t play much, which might tell us something.Id be careful with this as some in this board were already hurt about chin and OA leaving and probably would have exploded if any of our guys left with them.

Think he stays 3 years. 4 if his outside shot doesn’t improve.Goes to the league.
Teammates with Patrick Baldwin Jr. ???Samba Kane transfers to Wisconsin Milwaukee.
I like Payne a lot, super underrated player who understands his role and does it efficiently. He fits the style of play BU wants a bit more than Kofi, but obviously you do all you can to fit Kofi's style of play when you have him.Payne played more than Giorgi.
Could be. Thing is, if he's projected as a first rounder (which is very possible, IMO), he most likely is gone. Yeah, there's a possibility who could come back, with the aim of getting into the lottery. Goes without saying that he's going to have to show improvement, especially on his outside shot.Think he stays 3 years. 4 if his outside shot doesn’t improve.

curbelo will likely follow what ayo did and stay for three yearsHe’ll be here at most 3 years
I believe he would want to play with Bass and Storr before he leaves. Plus, look at Erie lineup we will have in 22 with the firepower. Shooters all over the floor, wings who can drive. We will be fighting for a Natty again with this team.curbelo will likely follow what ayo did and stay for three years
hope so. But if he's great next season, look out.curbelo will likely follow what ayo did and stay for three years
If I could like this a million times, I would.AJ Casey with an OV to tOSU on June 6th. Look for Illini to get one in June/July
I have no clue what to make of practice reports, but I think there have already been some comments about Belo drilling 3s in practice. I guess it just hasn't translated into games yet.I think the Curbelo talk is premature. A little strength at the rim along with an outside shot, and for sure he's a first rounder. But until he shows he can shoot at a decent clip from beyond the arc, I would expect he stays. That said, if he gets confident with an outside shot, and people say he hits them in practice, it's hard to see him staying. He's a little undersized for a prototypical NBA PG, but his vision/passing and creativity are off the charts.

I'm not sure... but the commits showing in this article... Is this correct? I hadn't heard all these players committed already... I know of Bass and Storr... but the rest I wasn't aware of.
