Rumors starting already

[TIMMY]

Eerily quiet.

 

[Redbrd1]

Something has to give right? How many scholarship players do we have now, like 50? Are we playing BB or FB?

We need, i think 3-4 people to leave right, or lose their scholarships? Any ideas? Hein, Gassman, Chastain, TB, Williams, Romine?

 

[isuquinndog]

We have 16 scholarship players for 13 spots. Updating the matrix now.

We don't necessarily have to lose anyone. But yes there will need to be scholarship adjustments.
We'll know more between finals and July 1st.

I'm not sayin' I'm just sayin' Chastain is going to be really good and is underrated by many on this board.

I agree. He will be a contributor, whether it’s as a walk-on or not.

If pressed, based on what we currently have, I’ll say Ike, Chastain and Romine are all walk-ons in 18-19.

 

[bombay]

That seems like the most logical answer.

 

[bombay]

I read this on a different fan board - "I actually wonder if Muller count."

Makes me wonder if that feller English.

 

[Redbirdfan21]

My guess:

Williams and Romine are medical redshirts and won't play again but will be on scholarship (won't count against our 13). Chastain and Gassman are walk-ons.

How much playing time will Matt Hein get in 2018-19 season?
2019-20 season?
Would benefit his career to either graduate this summer and be a grad transfer with two years of eligibility, or
Transfer and sit a year with two years of eligibility left.
He seems to love the game. Would think he would want to go where he could be a starter his last two seasons. JMO

Florida Gulf Coast would be perfect for Ndiaye 1 and Hein.

I’m not sure they would be interested though, or would they be walking on?

If we see this same type of growth we saw from 16-17 to 17-18 . . . he could be unstoppable.

We don't necessarily have to lose anyone. But yes there will need to be scholarship adjustments.
We'll know more between finals and July 1st.

I'm not sayin' I'm just sayin' Chastain is going to be really good and is underrated by many on this board.

Hard to imagine Chastain is a team captain in HCDMs mind yet a walk on. Unless he's cool with that, like Jordan taking a pay cut for a better roster.

Doug McDermott was a walk-on, team captain, and All-American at Creighton his senior year.

And coaches son. Not saying it's impossible but seems an odd combo.

So Dan should adopt him.

Seriously, that may actually be the next thing in college basketball...coaches adopting kids for free tuition.

 

[Baltimore Bird]

Kids Of a University employee probably got free tuition. Mcdermott would fall into that category which basically gave Creighton and extra scholarship

It was mostly a joke, but the Creighton situation was that Grant Gibbs got a 8th year of eligibility, who happened to be Dougs best friend and he gave up his scholarship for him. So Doug had to "pay his own way." That said, Coach McDermott also got a like 100k per year raise that year so.... yeah.

 

[East Coast Bird]

IM hearing a recruit is in town ran some games vets looked good especially Boogie Fayne Malik. Rommie was not in gym playing may have had class. They are running some games tomorrow at Redbird around noon.
