       We'll see. You may be right, but Long wasn't exactly lighting it
       up after two years.  Moor was better than I expected but he
       didn't set the world on fire either.  They're the type of
       players who can be replaced.  Yeboah OTOH . . . .

       Moore was a good defender poor shot taker. I can remember many
       times questioning his shot taking decisions (I know he is a
       freshman). Good luck to him, not a big loss hopefully we can get
       a good point guard now.

       It's a bummer to lose both Long and Moor. Losing one or the
       other doesn't really bother me as they seem kind of
       interchangeable, but both is tough. This opens up a big
       opportunity for Hassan Ceesay or Tyler Stephenson Moore next
       year. We didn't get to see much of Ceesay. He's only two years
       removed from a patella tendon tear at the end of his junior year
       in high school. Still think he's pretty intriguing. I suspect
       Tyler Stephenson Moore is going to look a lot like Long/Moor but
       with more consisten 3pt shooting.
       I guess what I'm saying is, this team has plenty of wings.
       Hopefully these transfers won't hurt too much.

       I know Foreman is reported to be very good, and based upon
       what's been said to date about him, I'm really looking forward
       to seeing him take over the PG position next season.  That said,
       even though I'm not as negative as some about McKenzie, he's
       clearly not the quick, slashing guard that fits with faster
       style of play that Coach Ford alluded to at the press
       conference--and I truly believe that having a second high
       caliber PG would be extremely beneficial
       There are now two open slots for next year (hoping that Yeboah
       doesn't make it three).  The Seawolves have offers out for
       several excellent PGs.  So, I'm hoping they can nab at least one
       of them!!

       Moor played some good minutes when we had him in. Losing him now
       may indicate something brewing there in the locker room? Butting
       heads with Ford? In any case he's a player I'd have loved to
       hang on to.

       I liked Moor's energy, toughness and defensive intensity.
       Offensively, he was one of those guys who would decide he was
       going to shoot it 20 feet from the basket, whether it was an
       open lane or three people standing in front of him. If Ford was
       going to play up-tempo, I thought that he and Long would fit in
       nicely, but they have other plans.
       I wouldn't read too much into his departure. It happens so often
       with coaching changes, and there are hundreds and hundreds of
       players in the transfer portal – something like two per D-I
       school. We're not far from the average. In addition to Gueye, I
       expect we'll have at least one other juco on the roster this
       fall.

       VC has 566 transfers so far.  There are 351 D1 schools. So two
       transfers is a little above average.
       Vermont lost a 3 star recruit from last year's team.

       It seems consensus is Moor had decision making issues and took
       questionable shots.. but lets not forget he had the best
       sharpshooting percentage.. 3PT% of 0.417 (10 of 24 attempted for
       the season.. albeit very low number of attempts).
       I really hope we can find a good PG in the via transfer or Juco.
       If no more departure, I feel good about going forward to next
       season with the solid core we already have.

       Again checking Twitter, Moor has recently followed coaches at
       Arkansas Tech, Southern New Hampshire, Central Washington,
       Lindenwood, Drury, Northwest Missouri State, and the lone D-I,
       IUPUI. Many, many D-IIs and jucos have begun following him. I do
       think he's a D-I talent, but it looks like he's not wanting to
       sit a year, and I don't blame him.

       So why would he leave a D1 school, where I'm sure he'd get more
       minutes than this past season, unless it's a coaching
       personality clash?  Or maybe it's his grades?  He's probably
       only going to get a 1/2 scholarship at best going to a D2
       school, right?
       Remember he played for a prep school for a year before coming to
       SBU, so sitting a year also doesn't make a lot of sense.
