Kinda surprised we haven’t seen any portal tweets. Maybe they’re all waiting to see who the new coach will be?

He may stay if we hire Nolan Smith, lets see..
The portal doesn’t open till 4/7. Players can’t visit and teams can’t contact players (or at least aren’t supposed to) until then. I am guessing that’s part of the reason we haven’t heard anything yet.
Portal opened for our players the day Fearne was fired.

No, it did not. Per new guidelines adopted in January, there is a 15-day window beginning five days after a new coach is announced to enter the portal.

NCAA is consistently inconsistent. Rules aren’t rules unless they’re rules.

But hey, at least it gives the new coach a chance to recruit the current guys before they announce it.
FWIW, players are still allowed to publically express their intention to enter the portal, which many have already done ahead of April 7th.

We were his only D1 offer? That seems crazy.
VC also lists Mount St. Mary’s, so only two D1 offers.
Correct!
With Hodgson off to Providence, prompted me to revisit our last (and only 2nd) match-up with the Friars, which was in the opening round of the 2013 NIT. In a mostly back and forth game - Niners led 36-33 at halftime - PC would close on a 21-11 run over the last 6 1/2 minutes to win 75-66. Niners ended the 2012-13 season at 21-12.
