2021-22 season news

Battle 4 Atlantis is stacked. 6/8 teams made the 2021 tourney (Baylor. Loyola, Cuse, UCONN, VCU, Michigan St) with Auburn and Arizona State (who's been killing it in the portal) being the other 2. We got our work cut out.

Paradise Jam is an awful field. Creighton should ditch it for the Orlando Invitational or NIT Tip-Off.

Orlando and the NIT would be good spots for a couple brothers without a tourney yet, Xavier and Georgetown

Xavier is going to be in the Preseason NIT with Memphis, Virginia Tech, and Iowa State. If X plays Memphis, what are the odds that the announcers chatter about Penny Hardaway while getting Xavier players' names wrong?

Orlando Invitational includes G'town, Iona, Alabama, Kansas, Dayton, and Miami.

Good call. Glad this turned out to be the case. And given the roster turnover perhaps the Paradise Jam is a good fit for the Bluejays this year.

Slightly unrelated question but one that does determine next seasons outlook....is there a transfer portal deadline?? Or can players transfer wherever, whenever?

The limitation of transfers is always their ability to register in time for the fall semester, I believe.

For the upcoming season, it looks like May 1st to enter the portal. I don't think there is a deadline in choosing the destination. fwiw the NBA draft combine is June 21-27, and the NCAA may require players to return by 10 days after the combine to be eligible.

That's a perfect game for the 'cats. A nice easy win that they'll still get a ton of credit for because it's on a neutral floor against a "name school" from a "power conference."
