2021-22 Transfer Thread

Recommended Posts

Mick Cronin said it best yesterday...  

Recruiting guys with that competitive spirit and mental toughness that goes along with the talent. 
 

Aside from lacking 3 point shooters, a true PG etc...   guys like Marcus Damas & Rafriel Guthrie brought this spirit and toughness.   Here’s hoping a few of these guys we brought in have that quality.

⁩ lands another impact transfer in Antonio Rizzuto. 2nd Team All-Conference & All-Defense in the America East.
 

Definitely seems like a solid get.

We can only imagine how this conversaton went and the kid still chose to come to Towson!

"He said wasn't sure what to think of Towson at first, but Tigers head coach Pat Skerry laid out a plan to win conference championships and qualify for the NCAA Tournament."

Good story, and at 6'3 he seems big enough to get off better shots than most of our guards were getting this past year. Hopefully he has a better shot selection. I am done being too optimistic about this program for now, but the first two transfers do seem like solid additions who actually bring some size to the guard spot (and maybe some adequate shooting) which we lacked last year.

I am sure this year probably caused Skerry to take a long hard look in the mirror and make some big changes to his approach. Doesn't mean it will work, but hopefully it will at least make for a tolerable product to watch next year. The Northeastern game was the only thing to get excited about at all this year.

I find this comment funny also.   The thing is, the CAA is wide open.  Wasn't JMU picked close to last and they won the regular season?  No Tyson Walker at NE, if we reload, with quality guards, who knows.   CT is a quality big and if we can get real shooting threats to finally spread the floor, maybe we can have a functional offense.  Track record suggests otherwise, but if Nolan and Rizzuto are good adds, and they appear relatively stronger than what other CAA teams have done so far, maybe we can dream of going dancing....

I thought 4 might have left on rocky terms.  Glad to see he helped broker this deal....
