Hey y’all, just thought I’d share a couple rumors on campus with everyone else.

The first is based in a little more fact than the other. Multiple people have discussed Adarius Avery transferring after this year. Although it would be a bummer, I think we may be able to use his scholarship to get either a freshman or a juco transfer.
Additionally there are conflicting rumors of Custer both grad transferring out and looking into grad classes at Loyola. If Custer stayed I’d think we would either be favored in conference next year or in predicted to take second.
Either way, these rumors will probably be discussed more after we win the tournament in a few weeks!

From what I have heard on campus Clay is already in one or two grad classes with the five year MBA program in Quinlan. Which I think is a lock for him staying but anything can happen.

Walked out of the Scottrade Saturday with a player's parents and they said Clay along with Jake would be in that same program

That is fantastic news about him already taking a couple of grad classes!!! That makes me much more confident that he is going to stay! Here's a kid that already transferred once... I can't imagine him transferring again (assuming that Loyola offers him a scholarship).

That is a great sign if he is already taking some grad classes.

Although, I would not fault him one bit if he decides to grad transfer to a 'big time' program. His best friend (and a big reason he came here in the first place) is graduating, he's already won MVC POY, he's led the team to a regular season title, Arch Madness title and a tourney berth. He likely will not be playing at the next level. A chance to play at a top tier P5 program might be tough to pass up.

But...he could also come back and lead the continued emergence of Loyola's program and become a legend (moreso than he already is). How could would back-to-back Larry Bird trophies be?!

When he wasn’t part of the Senior Day festivities, I took that as a pretty good sign.

Aren’t custer in Richardson both finance majors? Is Richardson also in the Quinlan program?

Richardson and his brother look a lot a like... Does he have any eligibility? Could we get him on the roster and switch Ben in when no one is looking?

Programs usually only honor players on Senior day that are in their last year of eligibility. Example with us last year Byron was in his last year of eligibility but still had one more year of undergraduate left before graduation.

Not being honored at Senior day does not usually mean a player will always stay at the school.

I have it from a very good source that Custer will return. He wants to be part of the continuing success of the program that he helped to build and has embraced the winning culture engendered by Porter Moser.

I think it's pretty common for redshirt juniors who the team knows are leaving to participate in senior day...Ohio State did it with Kieta Bates Diop the other day
