You know it’s the offseason when coaches start coming up with insane ideas.
“The reason why this idea came about is become of my experience in the G League.
During my time there, I watched a lot of players develop for the NBA.
We’re moving to a model like that in modern-day college basketball.”
What about the money?
The player would still get theirs.
Dare I say genius idea?
Everyone loves to scream that the mid-majors are getting screwed with the transfer portal.
They find the diamond in the rough, develop him, he blows up and transfers up.
This helps everyone involved, to a degree.
I know some players will get screwed who lose a spot at a mid-major to a high-major guy.
But you know what the end goal is?
That’s what coaches care about, it’s how they keep their job.
The question I have is what happens if the teams play each other?
Let’s say Albany gets a player from Syracuse and they play a game, can that player play?
Even more (can’t use Syracuse here), what happens if they play in the NCAA Tournament?
Feel like you just have to let everyone play and figure it out from there.
It’s also smart for a team like Albany.
Right now every team in the country is basically trying to build it’s roster year-to-year.
It’s about re-tooling, the portal, all that shit we keep hearing about.
Can’t go any worse than players transferring every single year.
