It's our second rebuild in 3 years, with a rookie head coach and no top tier A-10 players returning.

Of course we're down the list by the experts.

It is what it is....

I haven't been keeping track of the musical chairs. Does any team in the A10 have many top tier A-10 players returning?

From a Courier and Press article

Thursday marked the final day un-graduated men’s and women’s college basketball players to go portaling. Athletes currently in the portal can still commit and be recruited, but the paperwork to enter needed to be filled out Thursday by 11:59 p.m.

If players decide to leave after the deadline they would not have immediate eligibility to play at a new institution, barring a waiver or an extenuating circumstance.

So does that mean that the 4 GMU players that entered the portal are still with the team? All 4 are showing up on the 2023-24 roster along with the 5 new portal pickups...although Ball isn't on the roster yet.

Sounds like it was the last day to be eligible to go to the portal. Says they can still be recruited. Players that haven’t previously declared for the portal can’t after the deadline without a waiver. That is how I read the article anyways.

The "portal" is always open. A player can enter at any time.

However, to be immediately eligible to play in the upcoming season, a player must ENTER the portal before the deadline/during the "open" period. Any player entering outside of that "portal window" would either need to get an exemption from the NCAA or to sit out a year at their new school.

Once a player enters the portal, they CAN leave the portal and recommit to their current school, BUT once a player enters the portal, their current school has no obligation to take them back (continue to honor their scholarship or promise a spot on the team).
