I've noticed many GNAC teams have D2 transfers on them, some don't (St. Martin's, WWU, some others), just wondering if this works? WOU will hit the court this year with a talented Humboldt State guard transfer and a good power forward transfer from Concordia. That said, Academy of Arts transfer Yanick Kulich at WOU had high expectations, had limited playing time and success at Western, though I liked his game and thought he should've played more. He logged only 4 games at Academy of Arts, but was their leading scorer. Not sure if he was injured or what happened.
I get the D-1 bench-warmer/redshirt to D2 to seek more playing time. I'd do the same thing if I was riding the pine, sports is about playing. I've ridden benches in high school and played in other sports, if you're not exhausted and sweaty after a game/match/race, etc., and you just watched the action in a uniform, I'd get out.
I don't understand the productive starter leaving a D2 program for another. Are things going to change that much? I really don't get the bench-warmer transfer from one D2 to another. Is that person suddenly going to become a starter and star at the next stop? Doubtful, unless the program he goes to is really bad and then who wants to lose like crazy?
That all said, the spring and summer brought a huge influx of new transfers to the GNAC men's hoop rosters ... that's the way of the world in D2 basketball, I guess.
Thoughts?
