Santos Gone

What a dumpster fire.

I don't blame them.  Any talented player probably wants to get as far away from this program as possible.  It's not improving anytime soon no matter what new coach they hire.

Manderson, Martin, Holston and Da Silva are the only guys that have to return if they want to play 4 years of ball.  They have all used their RS years and are probably not grad transfer candidates.  

Wouldn't Thorpe fall under that, too?

Thorpe should be able to grad transfer as long as his classes are in order, same with Ziegler.

Correct me if I'm wrong. Wasn't Santos not playing near the end of the season? If that's right was it a coaches decision?

You may be thinking of Manderson ... Santos was one of the young bright spots on the team and definitely hurts if he leaves.

Overlooked the grad transfer part ..... thanks. Pretty sure both could find a home somewhere if they wanted to, probably not the same options as AC, though.

No surprise here as he was strictly an Antigua brothers signee from the Bronx where he went to St Raymond HS I believe. He's Dominican so his mind was probably made up once Orlando got fired. Da Silva could be next.

You're thinking of Manderson, maybe?  Santos played in the our last games.  He's inconsistent...big/strong, but not being able to start on this squad is telling.

Santos was starting games toward the end of the season, was inconsistent but played hard and looked to have a pretty nice upside ..... his leaving hurts.
