Makes you wonder if he is involved

Wouldn't surprise me if he is mentoring these guys to explore options just to screw Bamford

^ Burning bridges for the sake of burning bridges is going to end his college coaching career. More likely he's using them to get himself an angle at a better job. And I intentionally say using them.

Well the spin would be he is helping these guys with their careers... the screwing of Bamford would just be a side effect

Respectively disagree. If a school sees a chance to win with him as a coach they could care less about any bridges he has burned. Being a good person has never been a prerequisite of a D1 basketball coach.

Be interesting to see if he and Tre end up as a package deal somewhere

Really kinda sucks. He would have been a key player moving forward. The player movement in this program is becoming a concern. Crazy roster instability

^
Even if we lose another player which is likley this will be a relatively stable offseason. Only 3 transfers plus 2 graduations

This is a real drag.

Yeah I guess compared to the past couple seasons. But the loses are big. Who's the 3rd transfer? Tre, Ronnie, and ?

Carl and Gasperini are the grads, correct? Or are you counting Carl as a transfer?

Anybody else nervous this is going to get bad?

The last of the Bergeron recruits with no real ties to the region. Garcia

You saying Javohn is next?

JG leaving would be devastating

Wouldn’t surprise me. Would suck but I think the two Kelly’s cover him. I don’t see a replacement for degray.

One thing that's for sure... this will bring in a new player, a new opportunity for McCall and for once in his career at UMass, I can say that he's in a good flow and has been hot on the recruiting trail on his own. This is the year to take advantage of transfers.

UMass coaches, take a look at the list, and reach out to anyone who is a fit, plain and simple. Would love for the team to look into someone like Bryson Williams, Collin Smith, Marvin Johnson, Teddy Allen, or Jaylen Butz.
