Recent transfers out of UD

[CoffeeCan]

Since our program is in such good shape and CAG and co are such great evaluators of talent, I was just checking to see where all of the recent transfers left to... what a list of powerhouses! Almost all are D1! Amazing how all of these have transferred up to bigger and better programs. UD is all about helping our youth for the future and we are sure hard at work. Who knows.. maybe Richard will land at Grand Canyon. Fingers crossed for RJ at Towson! Am I missing anyone?

Cohill - Youngstown State
Weaver - Chicago State
Sissoko - North Texas
Frazier - John Carroll
Amzil - New Mexico State
Greer - Saint Josephs

If I transferred out of UD (I did not), I would probably not look to go to a school with lower standards, lower networking, lower prestige. But I guess if that is all you can get...

My grandpa was a bridge builder in rural WVa and wasted nothing. He’d visit us and we’d be amazed watching him eat chicken because he left nothing on the bone. Sucked every last piece off…meat…fat…tendons…there was nothing left on his plate except the bone.

Any other grandpa stories out there?

He ate the bone too, from the chicken legs only.
He was also the strongest man I had ever met. I had to remove my class ring every time I shook his hand.

I don't get the point of this post. We recruited some kids that ended up not not sticking around, (not irrelevant that that transfer rules also changed dramatically and probably also worthy of some comparative analysis too). So? Or is this just a gratuitous post of information people may want to have?

If the point is that Grant can't evaluate talent, then I think a fair post would also list the kids that transferred in, the National player of the year he recruited and landed, Trey Landers, etc... But again, I am at a loss for what you point is here.

[SeasonTicketFan]

Recruiting talent at UD and just about every mid major is a crap shoot. As long as I have followed UD, there have been swing and misses on just about roster.

Then, there have been underrated recruits like Brian Roberts, Obi Toppin and Jalen Crutcher who far exceeded their initial ratings and expectations.

If you look at our peers in the A10, you will see lots of recruits who don’t work out.

My friend's grandfather, who was not a blood relative of the aunt(the aunt was from the other side of the family), would then retrieve those not-fully-used-up cigarettes out of the ashtray and finish smoking the rest of the cigarettes himself. Nothing went to waste! Lol

There was a tree in my front yard where the branches forked in just such a way that I could comfortably wedge myself into it and read for hours. I could even safely fall asleep 30 feet off the ground, which I often did, because the shape basically formed a "chair". The branches would sway in the wind. I loved that tree.

[ClaytonFlyerFan]

My grandpa, a WWII vet, worked hard on a few political campaigns. The first to get someone from the west coast elected president to replace a complete southern failure. Then helped to successfully get two different family members elected to the Ohio house and senate. Great great guy whom I wish I had been able to spend more time with. I would go into more details of a few great stories, but the unipipper might get his political panties in a wad and go postal on us, or the snowflake moderator who likes to close and move threads might be awakened.

[CoffeeCan]

I am hear to speak the truth. And if you cannot handle it, that is on you I guess.

Just an observation that those who transfer out never move up to a better program. They are not in demand. I do not think this reflects well on CAG.

Camara was a score for sure. And I really only went back 5 years...

What exactly is hard to get on the point of the post? Is any of my information incorrect?

Please feel free to post a rebuttal in the last 5 years of success stories for CAG in terms of recruiting and compare it to those who left and went down several rungs in terms of CBB hierarchy.

Again, just my opinion on CAG and I am backing it up with facts....

I want UD to win, and just disagree that CAG is the guy to do it

I'm still not sure what the point of the original post in this thread was. If the players that transfer out of UD went to better programs, what then? Would you conclude that CAG is doing a great job? or would you say he is a terrible coach because he can't keep his best players?

My wifes grandfather always took us to these seafood smorgasboards when we visited in Florida. He loved peel n eat shrimp, but he'd eat the shrimp with the shell. He was a tough lovable man, with a lot of fix-it stories. My grandpa owned a tool and die shop in Dayton. He loved to roughhouse. When we landed on him playing backyard football, you could hear his ribs crack. and he'd laugh! Great guy!

Mr Can, we get it, you don't like CAG. However as an intelligent educated basketball fan your argument would carry much more weight would be if you had some data on transfer of other programs as a comparison. I.e. I consider you as a knowledgeable poster, compared UDscott.

We all get what you think... repeatedly.

I have agreed with some of your points although not your conclusion and certainly not your need to say it in 700 posts. But this transfer point is asinine.

The players that would be able to transfer up to bigger programs haven't transferred while the players that many agree are not the cornerstones have transferred to lower programs. That's negative?!

I sure as hell hope you do not have a position where you you are responsible for building a team/staff. Seriously, the idea that you're best people haven't left being a negative is an amazing philosophy. I'm surprised I haven't seen it in a management book.

News flash... we are going to have transfers every year. I would rather the players transferring out are the ones that are transferring down. Sure, it would be great if every recruit was the next Obi but that just isn't real world. I hope the players transferring out continue to transfer down. I really hope that is part of what propels us up.

There's actually allergy medicine for dogs. Our dog takes it.

CC: in your blind hate you don't realize it, but you're actually making a point about AG being a GOOD coach. You have confirmation bias. That's where every fact strengthens your belief.

-Players transferring out strengthens your belief that AG is a bad coach.
-Players transferring in does too, that would show he's admitting he can't build his own talent.
-Players transferring down strengthens your belief.
-Players transferring up would too, that would show players don't want to play for him.
-Playing slow strengthens your belief.
-Playing fast would too, that would show he's a fool because of the added turnovers.
-Having potential NBA talent on the roster strengthens your belief.
-No having it would too, that would show AG is a terrible talent evaluator.

No matter the set of facts, you'll find a way that they confirm your belief. I get it, you want to win, and we should have last year, and we didn't. I would argue we had plenty of talent but you just can't overcome that many injuries all to the same position.

Do you see it?

Like Gazoo, I had a dog with allergies... one of which was to human dander. Yep, my dog was allergic to me.

I gave him allergy shots myself as initially it needed to be done daily (I spare you all the details). Once, he pulled away while I had the needle in the scruff of his neck. The needle slid out of him and into the soft spot between my thumb and forefinger as I was depressing the plunger resulting in a half a dose in the dog and half in me. After several very loud F bombs and a call to poison control, turns out it was the same medicine given to children for allergies... at a substantial mark up.

Anyway... hopefully just allergies which are not that big a deal.

I'll jump in.

Your opinion is CAG isn't a good coach. That's fine.

One of your points for proving that is that the transfers out of this program are not to higher schools, implying that to be a good coach you can only have transfers out to a higher program. (Though, doesn't that imply that Coach K, Self, Izzo can either never have transfers out, or they aren't a good coach?)

The argument against that is CAG isn't alone in this regard, therefore, it's not a viable arguing point. And CAG isn't alone not only in the entirety of the basketball world, but even just at UD.

Everyone will correct me if I'm wrong, but based on that the best UD coach based on transfers out to better programs since the JOB era would be Brian Gregory. Trent Meachum went to Illinois, and Juwan Staten went to West Virginia.

I don't think that is the conclusion you wanted us all to draw.

--Figgie

	Brian Gregory BRIAN GREGORY UD Men's Basketball Head Coach since 2004. Groomed by the likes of Judd Heathcoate and Tom Izzo at Michigan State, as well as Kevin O'Neill and others, Gregory's defensive-minded leadership has led Dayton to NCAA and multiple NIT appearances. A good recruiter, BG has elevated the athleticism of the squad in recent years and kept top area talent at home. Still looking for that breakthrough season with his own players that catapult him to the NCAA tourney. Graduated from Oakland University.

I believe there is a way to create a cable that would connect to the Commodore 1541 disk drive and then have it plug into a serial port on a PC. I have not done that yet. It would be fun to look at my MLB scheduling program that I wrote back in the 80s.

Stop gaslighting. You posted that you "get it" that you're beating a dead horse. I said nothing about beating a dead horse.


You demonstrably did not post that you "get it" that you have confirmation bias. That's different.

[Flyers98]

Originally Posted by maddog07 He didn’t recruit Landers. Posted via Mobile Device

The post (as explained by the poster) was about talent evaluation, and while he did not recruit Landers he did recognize that he had an important role to play on the team and was a leader. Consequently, Trey Landers was a starter and the leader of the best team in the history of the program, (assembled by the Coach that can't evaluate talent). The Coach that recruited Landers saw fit to play him 15 minute forthe year, (that is hyperbole, please don't respond that he played 50 minutes or something).

At the end of the day, I care more about the Obi Toppins, the Jalen Crutchers, the Ibi Watsons, the Daron Holmes, the Toumani Camarras, than I do the kids who left because there was better talent ahead of them. I also find it laughable that he tries to use the same guy for different opposing arguments. You can't simultaneously rip AG for not keeping Lynn Greer and then use Lynn Greer as an example of a guy who transferred to a lower tier program because he was mis-evaluated and not good enough to play at UD.

As I have said many times before. There are legitimate criticisms to be made of AG, there is a not ridiculous argument to be made that he should have been fired, but when a poster time after time after time posts third grade arguments which completely ignore the significant and obvious evidence to the contrary, and then says he is just speaking the truth and presenting facts, he has absolutely no credibility and makes it pretty clear that he has some objection to or problem with Grant that has nothing to do with coaching basketball.

[flyerfanatic86]

If you want to learn the quick and easy way to determine the quality of a coach, you can look at a nifty statistic called wins and losses.

[ud2]

I understand the point that Coffee is making, and I agree with him. Having said that, this is another one of these issues that I don't really care about, I am not concerned about where our out-transferring players end up.

I only care about making the ncaat and running a clean program.

And I don't think Huggins ran a dirty program at UC. There were some guys that got into trouble off the court, but that doesn’t mean Huggins cheated. And I am not sure what the situation was with the academic side of things/Academic Progress Rate issues. Huggins did recruit some JUCO's and some players did transfer out, so that may have negatively impacted UC's APR number.

Edit: yes, players getting into trouble and also not graduating is a bad look. Huggins doesn't seem to have had these problems after he left UC.

Winning gets you a lot of leeway though. Sort of like not seeking out permission first and then asking for forgiveness later. Huggins won a lot at UC, winning is fun and brings in the $. It is much easier to fire a coach who is clean but doesn't win much, than it is to fire a winning coach who sort of blurs the lines.

Television has led me to believe you should consult a doctor if it lasts more than 4 hours. I think that is good advice regardless of whether the problem occurs naturally or is pharmaceuticaly induced.

[CoffeeCan]

There are two sides to every coin, there is always a counter-argument.
And that is fine. It is hard to make a point when 95% jump into a volcano if CAG said it was the right thing to do. And I get that as well.

Every one of the transfers that I mentioned had their own "Welcome to the Family" post on here. As they should. We all want to believe.

And of course transfers happen. And if not for transfers we would not have Sibert, Camara, etc. Totally get it.

My point was on talent evaluation by CAG on the recruiting side. Not AMs guys. Not transfers in. CAGs guys that he and his staff recruited.

We have underperformed under CAG.
Every one of the transfers left for a reason (lack of playing time, skill level did not translate, off the court issues, etc)
None of them, zero, went to a program close to on par with UD. The closest is probably Amzil.

Its like we are a top flight accounting firm and we think we hire the best.
We have not been a successful company in 5 out of the last 6 years.
Everyone that has left the company goes to a smaller and less prestigious company.
Is this the mark of a successful company?
We have a hard time identifying successful accountants. And we are not meeting company goals.

That is all I am trying to say.
I have concerns.

It's called admitting that there is another point, one which I will not agree upon, so let's move on to other topics.

Maybe there is an article in your latest AARP magazine you can reference.

Let's take Duane Cahill, for instance. He had 21 offers coming out of high school. Those offers included Ohio State, Penn State, Virginia Tech, and Clemson. He surprisingly chose Dayton. Then he had an injury and got recruited over and decided to go closer to home. Sometimes a change is what is needed for a player to put in the extra effort to prove the first team wrong. Sometimes they just need the chance to show what they've got. Whatever, no coach is ever going to be all things to all players. Many fans immediately attack our own coach while giving other coaches a pass for the same thing (in this case transfers down). As we get older, we realize the carousel of coaches is really Russian Roulette and its probably best to stick what you got than gamble you can get something better.

BTW, I have never worn a red sweater vest.

Fair enough on not wearing red sweater vests, but you must eat oatmeal or tapioca pudding on a regular basis, right?

Miller Lite, Mike's Lemonade, and unless oatmeal is in a cookie, I don't eat it. And I ain't touching tapioca.

What alcohol pairs well with tapioca pudding to make pudding shots?

We’re moving to Florida to join ranks with the old, retired people. If you’re interested, I have some red sweater vests that I won’t need anymore.

Counting the years until I can make that move. Been looking at real estate to get ideas so that when the market crashes we are prepared to jump, just not sure if we like east or west coast better.
