Absolutely. People bash on the media for being anti-Cyclone and the one time in my 32 years that I remember them being over the top with enthusiasm, the fans find other things to keep them depressed. The "sucks to be a Cyclone" attitude is going to end up being self-fulfilling if people don't lay off a bit.

This.... Matt A. commented on it many times before he left. Our over the top expectations, meltdowns, over reactions, negativity could negate the best thing we have going for us.

So if the player does know mid-season he is leaving, who exactly is he telling? And specifically how does the ISU staff know that he is going to transfer? Does the player/family/coaches contact ISU and tell them? Or does ISU hear from a guy, who heard from a guy, who heard from another guy, that the player is going to transfer?
Read Chris' s mailbag thread (or was it the recruiting note....) It is spelled out there. Players tells AAU coach or parent. They shop around long before release. That is not a violation.

Tillman was totally channeling somebody breaking up with their bf/gf there.

JT: I'm leaving.
VCU: Please, not yet.

(one week later)
JT: I'm leaving.
VCU: Please, not yet.

(Another week later)
VCU: I'm letting you go.

(day later)
JT: That wasn't so much fun. I'm staying.

Intriguing post-grad transfer for Hoiball? Skill/size fit.

Jeff Goodman@GoodmanESPN13 mins13 minutes agoSpoke to Liberty transfer Tomasz Gielo. 6-9 forward eligible immediately. Shot 40% from 3 past 2 years. Said he is weighing his options.

He's also European. And not even listed on 2016 mock draft from Draft Express. He might just head back to Europe and start making money.

Saw a tweet from TJ answering the question of what the focus of recruiting will be this summer. His answer was "front court players". So I guess the staff is aware of this coming deficiency (to the surprise of some on here).

He also mentioned that he is confident about filling up rest of our open scholarships.

Good stuff.

With Babb on board, that leaves three left yet for this coming season. Then next season we'll have at least 5-6 to fill, right? (Niang, Long, McKay, Nader, the 5th yr. guy we're hopefully still bringing in, and maybe but hopefully not Morris). I wonder how many times an ISU staff has had to fill 9-10 scholarships in two years. Of course, thats par for the course for Calipari. Can't wait to see what lies ahead. Go Fred , TJ, & all!

If ISU doesn't show any interest in Kyle Washington, I'm going to go full speculation mode.
