How many schools is that now for Eikens? Hell of a career

[jdub27]

A couple of those are now on their 3rd stop. It is what it is, but not hard to see why they would be upset. 

Some of the others complaining look like they were probably told they weren't going to play at this level or they didn't fit into the new staff's plans. Looking at their stats where they currently are, that former was probably accurate and the latter happens frequently when there is a coaching change.

Other than Rebraca, has any player that left been measurably more successful than they were at UND?

Hopefully these players shared their concern with the athletic director on their way out. Because that opinion is the only one that actually matters.

Something like 3 high schools and 3 colleges. It was never his fault though.

You and I both know that this would do absolutely nothing. Nobody is going to believe or listen to anything the players have to say. Just sweep it under the rug. Look at what the majority of you are saying about their opinions. Everyone believes the coaches and not the players. Just the way it works in college athletics unfortunately.

Whether the comments are true or not. Multiple former players actually posting and liking tweets about their thoughts on social media is not a good look. Hopefully we don't see any more players transfer out soon...

Yeah, disagree but whatever.
Some pretty serious accusations being tossed around.
Chaves follows one of the guys throwing stuff around on Twitter so I guess he'll finally get his voice heard since it supposedly didn't matter when he was here.

Players always transfer out.  Doesn't mean DAE is justified if there are.  NDSU had a decent exodus last year - Richman's fault?

That speaks louder to me than DAE.

I’ll give it some more time but as of now I do not see a single player that played for Sather at UND liking the tweet. Treysen is the only current player that has

Surprised we didn’t wait a week to see the portal exodus

If an account is private, you wouldn't see it.
BJ liked it on Instagram, so there's that I guess.
What does it mean? Nothing in the end, similar to the negative drama that's spilling everywhere.

[Und246]

Did Marlon not play as much as would have liked his first couple years here? He might still be mad about that.

If omot liked it that’s a good sign

Sather only had him for a year.  His Sophomore and Junior years were with Jones

If “likes” were the end all be all of social truth and popularity —then @jdub27 would be the fricken Walter Cronkite of Sioux Sports!  LOL!

I'm pretty sure @jdub27 is Bill Chaves not Walter Cronkite

Looks like most people are up to speed. Obviously, everything Desean is wrong and without merit. A few players that quite frankly weren't good enough probably don't love UND basketball, that isn't news. Marlon was overweight and ineligible when Sather got to UND and finished as an all-conference player so I don't think he has too much to be upset about. Desean hasn't been at a different school almost every year since his freshman year of high school, what do you think is the common denominator? 

I really thought about going after him on Twitter but I think it's funny how nobody is really liking or responding to the tweets. That says more than I could. 

Go coach dosch

Why don't you ask Aanen Moody if it is true that Sather kicked him off the team because he had a kid? That it wasn't his decision to transfer and that Sather truly kicked him off for the kid. That will give you a lot of answers you're looking for Zach

You are right on DeSean.  In high school he was a cancer on the team.
