McBuckets Posted March 8, 2023 Share Posted March 8, 2023 I think we’ve all heard enough about the GPAC for a while. Besides Mason Walters does anyone have some other names of transfers UND should be looking at? More names will come out next week with the portal but just curious what everyone was thinking Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No clue if he will transfer but wouldn’t shock me. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fightingsioux4life Posted March 8, 2023 Share Posted March 8, 2023 I am looking forward to when we are talking about what NCAA seed we will get and how far we can go instead of how good an NAIA conference is or isn't. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He wasn’t on the hot seat when he was something like 2-23 in a 25 game conference stretch? In all seriousness I don’t care if Paul Sather or Santa Claus is the head coach. We’ve finished 6th, 5th , 10th, and 9th in the conference the last 4 years. Those results in an average to probably below average conference are not good. Maybe next year is the year we make a huge jump. Seems like there will be a lot of turnover in teams rosters next year. I’m sure the SU’s, ORU, and St Thomas will be at the top. I will be disappointed if we are not amongst that group. As always I will be at most home games and look forward to traveling to a handful of away games. I’m already looking forward to going down to Lincoln once again! 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

His 3 point % took a dip this year which could be a concern Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’m not commenting on the struggles, I’m just commenting that he isn’t going anywhere right now regardless of how we feel. It was a response to the comment about recruits considering coming to a school where a coach is on the “hot seat”. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hopefully we can come out a net positive from the portal this year. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The other two have additional years of eligibility so that would elevate them in my book. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The decision for him will be does he want to play or is alright with being a very small role guy/maybe not getting any minutes for games at a time but being at the program he loves.

I think UND would have the best chance to actually land Mason out of the 3 listed. Not sure if Thompson or Moni will even look to transfer this year. We know Mason is in the portal for sure this year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Genuine question as I’ve never seen him just have seen stats. The other two have additional years of eligibility so that would elevate them in my book. I think for one season he would be the top guy. Maybe two years of the other guys would be a better plan. I think Mason is considered the best player in the NAIA. As a sophomore he held his own against a 7 footer named EJ Onu from Shawnee State. EJ has played the last several years in the G League and received serious draft consideration. Last years NAIA national champion had guys transfer to Ole Miss and Marquette. Hard to judge where exactly Mason falls but the last couple of years the top NAIA players have been able to play at a pretty high level. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SD UND Posted March 9, 2023 Share Posted March 9, 2023 It is hilarious that a few people judge the recruits that Sather has brought in and say we don't have a D1 hoops team, and then the next thing you know they want our top priority to be a NAIA transfer... Mason Walters is a good basketball player and if he wants to come to UND you take him.. If he wants to go anywhere else you wish him luck. 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
