I thought he was a superb player -
Belmont signs a player from the portal-- Brody Peebles, a 6'2" junior shooting guard from Liberty University. He has one season of eligibility left. He averaged 10.7 ppg nearly all in a reserve role. He shot 33.6% from three in 2023-24, but his 3-year career 3-point percentage is 37.6%.

They will hide him on D, and use him as a spot up. Like Goode on ILOriginally posted by yoda View PostComment

Wake Forest has freed up a lot of scholarships. I think he ends up in the ACC, probably at WF since he's from NC.The True Gentleman is the man whose conduct proceeds from good will and an acute sense of propriety, and whose self-control is equal to all emergencies... - John Walter WaylandComment

I have a general question about the portal.Players that enter do they already have an agent or do they just represent themselves?Comment

The portal is essentially functioning as the agent for most of the players who enter, while preserving their college eligibility. Under the NCAA rules regarding professionalism, they cannot actually hire a true agent, the kind that arranges professional playing deals, or they will lose their ability to play any more college ball.
There is such a thing as an NIL agent that they can associate with, who helps them find NIL opportunities and takes a percentage as a fee. But NIL agents can't represent the player in arranging professional playing opportunities.Comment

Ok,was just curious how the players navigate through all the contacts they receive.If what you heard about Hickman he must have had some idea what he wanted to do or where he wanted to go before he left.Originally posted by Da Coach View PostComment

Yes, it is all done through a sophisticated online system that connects the player with the teams that are interested, and allows them to set up further communication with the teams they choose to talk to.Comment

The portal is also password protected and only coaches and compliance officers at schools are given access. From what I've been told, the way it works is players have to fill out forms and give them to the school's compliance officer, who then enters them into the portal. The NCAA is very guarded about security. They threaten to revoke access if anyone's password is misused.
There are no media people who have access. So anyone listing names that are in the portal is getting them from other sources like the players themselves, their social media, or some other source. Usually the players want their name to be known in the portal, so they or someone representing them will message media people and internet recruiting sites.Comment

Former Missouri State big man NJ Benson, who Bradley recruited in the portal, has just committed to DePaul.
I guess he's going for the NIL money with a horrendous perennial last place team instead of wanting to play with a good team.Comment

So disappointed. I thought we had a real shot at a guy like Benson.Originally posted by Da Coach View PostLarry Bird
I've got a theory that if you give 100 percent all of the time, somehow things will work out in the end.Comment

Bryan Mullins prob working overtime on all the MVC guys like NJ, Hickman, Alston- lots of instant playing time & they’re working hard to raise NIL $Comment
