Wow. Mason, GW, and the Bonnies each have nine outgoing transfers. Hard to believe when there are only 13 scholarships. All but four leaving at each place?

SBU offers 43 undergraduate majors, the most popular of which are elementary education, journalism, psychology, accounting, marketing, finance, and management.

Historical nickname was the Brown Indians, but later changed to the Bonnies. Their mascot is a wolf.

Bonnies transfer list is surprising. They are usually a pretty stable program.

On the WBB side, Syracuse (2021 NCAA tourny team) has had 11 players enter the portal -- quote from head coach "Everybody wants our players. So, we must be doing something right."

Our friends over at the Billiken board have a good summary of all the transfers in and out of the league so far.

Its funny that on the Billiken board their predictions for the top 4 in next seasons standings are Bonnies, St. Louis, VCU (with Bones Hyland) and Richmond. No sign of our Flyers! They must figure our incoming freshman aren't very good and Crutcher and Chatman were the whole team in 2020-21. For sure, the Billikens feel like throwing a big going away party for Jalen. They still have nightmares of his three pointers swishing the net! They don't realize that we will just reload next season, not rebuild!

	Richmond UNIVERSITY OF RICHMOND Founded in 1830, the private liberal arts university in the Commonwealth boasts 2,800 students in 57 majors within its picturesque 350-acre campus. The Robins School of Business is one of the Top-20 business schools in the country. Nickname is the Spiders and are fellow A10 Conference members.

	St Bonaventure SAINT BONAVENTURE Founded in 1858, St. Bonaventure University is a liberal arts college located on 500 acres in southwestern New York state. SBU offers 43 undergraduate majors, the most popular of which are elementary education, journalism, psychology, accounting, marketing, finance, and management. Total undergraduate enrollment is 2,000. Virtually all freshmen and most undergraduates live on campus. A founding member of the A10 Conference. Famous athletes include Bob Lanier. Historical nickname was the Brown Indians, but later changed to the Bonnies. Their mascot is a wolf.

	Saint Louis SAINT LOUIS Saint Louis University is a Jesuit, Catholic university ranked among the top research institutions in the nation. The University fosters the intellectual and character development of more than 12,700 students. Founded in 1818, it is the oldest university west of the Mississippi and the second oldest Jesuit university in the United States.

Once we added Camara, their view on us changed a little bit. Before he committed, I did not see us as a top 5 team in the league next year with what other teams were returning. Camara definitely changes the outlook of this team in my opinion. Zimi, Amzil, RJ, Holmes are a good core, but they are still young. Having that vet to lead that group will be big.

Most of this portal issue is a joke. How can coaches plan long term.

Agreed. This last year or so, “long-term“ has gone from 3 years to 3 months. It’s insane!

So many transfers might hurt the A10 as opposed to other leagues. The A10 has advantages over P5 leagues when it has experienced teams that have played together. Their cohesion and experience is used as an advantage. It allows them to compete against players who might have more talent, but less cohesion. The high number of transfer means that you will have lots of player snot used to playing together.

We some of that with UD this year when they had so many new faces and limits on pre-season and practice time.

I can see the league being weaker in OOC next season.

Get used to this boys and girls. This is a generation that expects things now. They think that change will make things better for them. There are only so many that will move up. How many St. Bonnie players are good enough for P5? They are willing to move laterally or down? It is a pancea.
