Re: 2026 Transfer Portal

Hey, having three fairly athletic seven footers is unprecedented for Hofstra and a good thing. Our guards are very solid. Add a wing and this team is a top three in the conference next year.

Re: 2026 Transfer Portal

Kid looks good. A Speedy hidden gem? The question is, does he get buried on the bench on a Speedy team that uses only 8 or so in the rotation?

Re: 2026 Transfer Portal

On paper, Speedy has already put together a high quality backcourt for next year. Jaeden Roberts would have been in a dogfight for playing time.

Re: 2026 Transfer Portal

Assuming we have six slots to fill…does Speedy save two for Silas and Biggie? First off, they have to want to stay another year. I assume Speedy will be having that conversation with them. Second, does the NCAA make the proposed, new five-in-five rule retroactive, which seems likely, to avoid litig...

Re: 2026 Transfer Portal

Hmmm,…IF we get Silas for another year, we’d have three seven-footers on the roster. That would be a Hofstra record right there.

Re: 2026 Transfer Portal

Strangely enough, new eligibility rules coming down the pike in the near future would, I believe, allow Silas Sunday and Biggie Patterson one more year of eligibility. There is a possibility the could be back at Hofstra if they decide the want one more year of college play. Any thoughts? Sent from m...

Re: 2026 Transfer Portal

There were three Hofstra players in the portal….Edmead, Cruz and Amir Williams, as far as I can tell.

Re: 2026 Transfer Portal

This is strange, but I’ve checked a number of times and have been told that Jaeden Roberts has not, so far, entered the current transfer portal. I see your note from him, but he may have been merely thanking Speedy for the great year. I could be wrong. I often am, but I may be right. Bet you five bu...

Re: 2026 Transfer Portal

You sure about Roberts? All indications he’s still at Hofstra. What”s your source? He was linked to Gardner -Webb before coming to Hofstra,

Re: 2026 Transfer Portal

Assuming Moore, Tavares, Roberts, Thomas, Blake, Willis and Boyd, plus Lopez…best set of guards in the CAA?

Grand Canyon is a non-profit and pays big money to its basketball players. On par with many high majors.

Good one.
He didn’t play at all this past season Loyola Marymount. Anyone know why?

Re: 2026 Transfer Portal

The backcourt losses make Hofstra very attractive to power conference guards who may have been bench riders but who have talent. Speedy attracts hidden gems. Don’t count us out.

Re: 2026 Transfer Portal

Nice addition. Very good defender. Terrific shot-blocker and can actually hit a three pointer.
Seems from videos to be much more mobile than Silas Sunday, but could benefit from adding some weight.
