We need to accept that it's a two way street
We can't complain about Smith gutting our roster and then start threads clamoring for Odom to take who is worth taking from UMBC. I don't like our best players leaving either, but it's a two way street with the ability we have to take guys from the transfer portal.

Re: We need to accept that it's a two way street
It is. As long as we get “ours” and get some transfers of our own, there won’t be any wailing or gnashing going on at the end of it. The hard thing right now is we are being gutted and haven’t yet done any gutting ourselves.GameFAQSAggie wrote: ↑April 9th, 2021, 2:08 pmWe can't complain about Smith gutting our roster and then start threads clamoring for Odom to take who is worth taking from UMBC.

Leaving for Utah as opposed to a school 1500 miles away that I haven't heard of makes a difference......at least for me.

Yeah if RJ Eytle-Rock transfers here, I won't care much about Worster.

Re: We need to accept that it's a two way street
It makes a difference to fans, but in both scenarios it’s just players following coaches. Marco and Rollie don’t hate Utah like we do.

Re: We need to accept that it's a two way street
And as fans posting here, losing coaches and players to Utah is going to hurt worse than losing them to Arkansas or LSU.ineptimusprime wrote: ↑April 9th, 2021, 2:13 pmIt makes a difference to fans, but in both scenarios it’s just players following coaches.

Although I'm excited to see what Odom can bring in. He can make us forget about Worster real quick. I brought up RJ Eytle-Rock, but there are of course other guys he can snag from the portal.

Yeah. Arkansas fans are not likely to be gloating and rubbing our noses in it like Ute fans.

Re: We need to accept that it's a two way street
Is it concluded Marco is leaving? Because I have heard he isn't from people on here and that he is from others. I hate it when we decide something is happening before it happens even if it does end up happening.

Re: We need to accept that it's a two way street
I've heard he has a GF here so he isn't gonna leave. But the thing is like all of this is rumors until we know anything so why do we act like it's over just based on a couple of rumors? Remember how many rumors there were about Craig Smith going to Minnesota and there was even a thread where someone was like "well now that smith is gone who is our best option?" Before anything had been conclusively stated. It's so annoying haha. Yes, he went to Utah but credible sources have proven that our rumors were going around a long time before even Craig himself knew he was leaving and he definitely didn't leave for Minnesota anyways. Until I see Marco saying he is gone I'm going to act like he isn't and honestly Marco's style of play will work really well with Odom. If we lose Marco then we lose Marco and I'm sure we can find someone just as good but until then can we all just chill just a little?FL350Aggie wrote: ↑April 9th, 2021, 2:38 pmI’ve been wonder the same thing.AggieFanNate wrote: ↑April 9th, 2021, 2:28 pmIs it concluded Marco is leaving?

Re: We need to accept that it's a two way street
Not to my knowledge, but there has been a lot of talk about "following the coach that recruited you" in the assumed belief that Worster is transferring to Utah, so I was using the example of a star guard who is a great shooter that played for Odom.Aggie84025 wrote: ↑April 9th, 2021, 2:25 pmIs he in the transfer portal?Aggie formerly in Hawaii wrote: ↑April 9th, 2021, 2:12 pmYeah if RJ Eytle-Rock transfers here, I won't care much about Worster.
We'll see what Odom can bring in whether it is an ex-player or the many other players in the portal. Our team is going to look a lot different next year and we don't know right now if that is a good or bad thing.

Y'all care way too much about what Ute fans think. I couldn't give two craps.
Nobody here knows anything.

It's a tough choice.

Re: We need to accept that it's a two way street
I think that BYU fans usually hit the tri fecta: Insufferable, obnoxious and offensive. You could add “delusional”to their character trait along with the contrasting view of self pity. Ute fans like to ride around on their high horse of in-state superiority, boasting their PAC 12 membership and thumbing their noses at everyone else as if they got a temple recommend and you don’t.USU78 wrote: ↑April 9th, 2021, 10:55 pmInsufferable vs obnoxious and offensive.CastIronAggie wrote: ↑April 9th, 2021, 6:04 pmI work almost exclusively with Ute fans.

Re: We need to accept that it's a two way street
My best man and I were in SLC for an Aggie v Puke game. He came up with "obnoxious and offensive" to describe the Puke alums in attendance. And told our seatmates so.
