It's kind of crazy to say this in college basketball because odds are srong that at least 2-3 of the guys will transfer after the season. I'd say that about any team and looking at their roster in mid July for next year.
I agree. Under Wojo (and even more so under Buzz), MU has had its fare share of transfers. Since Wojo was hired, we have lost Deonte Burton, Steve Taylor, John Dawson, Traci Carter, Sandy Cohen and Duane Wilson. That's an average of 1-2 per year. Each was a different situation (Burton and Taylor didn't fit the new philosophy, Dawson and Cohen weren't playing at all, Carter saw the writing on the wall for future playing time, and Wilson was a grad transfer and knew he would be crunched for minutes). Bottom line, the program under Wojo hasn't lost a great player due to transfer. The best players dictate playing time. So, whomever is the odd man out will ultimately probably leave.
The fun thing to also consider is that we are still going hard after Quentin Grimes. While our scholarship limit is now filled for 18-19, we are recruiting with the expectation that we will be losing someone (likely due to the magnitude of transfers in college basketball).
Bottom line, never stop recruiting.
