I know people think "If they graduate, I'm okay with them leaving" but when guys like Nance and Skowronek and Brandon Joseph leave because they need to showcase themselves for the pros, it's a massive indictment on the state of the program. We're in for a world of hurt in both revenue sports, like 2001 bad.
It will make it less painful when college sports as we know it collapses entirely in the next few years!I know people think "If they graduate, I'm okay with them leaving" but when guys like Nance and Skowronek and Brandon Joseph leave because they need to showcase themselves for the pros, it's a massive indictment on the state of the program.

You realize that in anything other than a Covid year, Nance would be out of eligibility? He played 4 years and graduated from NU. Not the end of the world for him to want to do his bonus year somewhere else. I know after I got my NU degree I couldn't wait to get the heck of of Evanston and see someplace new.Laughing to keep from crying.
I said last fall that NIL and the portal were going to kill our mediocre program; surprisingly some on here disagreed. In the last few months we've seen NIL cost us our top recruit, and the portal cost us our best player, as well as a team leader in Ryan Young.
We're a mid-major now.
We’ll always have Salt Lake City.Laughing to keep from crying.

It doesn't matter whether he transfers with a degree or not. When your best player says "After four years, I no longer want to be a part of the program -- I'd rather stay in college and play somewhere else" it's massive. Bottom line, Pete Nance -- the face of the program -- neither feels that he can win at NU, nor that playing for NU can get him to pros. That's brutal.You realize that in anything other than a Covid year, Nance would be out of eligibility?

That’d be a real punch in the crotch.Allegedly he might be staying in conference if he doesn’t stay in the draft
One thing is a certainty, he would be far more successful than the last starter we had that transferred within the B1G. Pete is a good player.That’d be a real punch in the crotch.
Why can’t you believe it? We were absolutely terrible and Young played 10 minutes a game, which is criminal. I can’t believe more people didn’t leave.I can’t believe both Young and Nance jumped 🚢!
Shhh, don't say it so loud. I'm sure there's still open schollies around the country.... I can’t believe more people didn’t leave.
Army? It's a little difficult to leave West Point voluntarily! Who wants somebody from AMCC, NICHOLLS, GRAMBLING, LIU,OR CAL POLY? Great winners like Kansas, G Zags, AZ, Nova, Duke, or ND don't usually have transfers. Miami has a NIL Problem brewing. Leave Hawaii, are you nuts? So I don't think the list is any true measure of the portal. Aren't there 300+ D1 classified programs?Shhh, don't say it so loud. I'm sure there's still open schollies around the country.
As an aside, here's last week's list of D1s who didn't have a player transfer out of their program:
Duke
Miami
Notre Dame
St. John’s
Villanova
Minnesota
Rutgers
Kansas
Arizona
Gonzaga
Tulane
Cal Poly
Hawaii
Long Island
Army
A&M-Corpus Christi
Nicholls State
Grambling
He’ll be a flop in pros. No nads.He will go pro! For sure!
Updated as of today......I think the Duke kid is K's grandson or something.Shhh, don't say it so loud. I'm sure there's still open schollies around the country.
As an aside, here's last week's list of D1s who didn't have a player transfer out of their program:
Duke -Michael Sevarino

Villanova - Bryan Antoine
Minnesota

Minnesota actually has one in, so it's just 4 programs who don't have a player in the transfer portal out of 358. Granted some of these schools, the only representation in the portal are walk-ons, such as Duke and Gonzaga. Just shows that everyone loses someone these days, unless you win a championship.Updated as of today......I think the Duke kid is K's grandson or something.

That's one of the more realistic ideas out here.It makes sense to me that Pete would play his last year elsewhere if he realizes soon enough he doesn't have what it takes to get into the NBA. He definitely doesn't have to ability to lead NU to the dance, and he'll be a great second or third option on a top 25 team.
One transfer to Duke, the other to UNC....NU, ACC's B1G Team baby!A lot of Carolina fans out there are talking about Nance as a replacement for Brady Manek. Not sure if he’s actually on their radar, but it would be a pretty good fit and he’d be on a legit contender.
Sports Illustrated has Pete Nance rated as the #2 player in the portal (post May 1 deadline)...One transfer to Duke, the other to UNC....NU, ACC's B1G Team baby!
I would say it is accurate. Pete was easily our best player and unfortunately he didn’t have that much help around him. Talent wins games.Sports Illustrated has Pete Nance raked as the #2 player in the portal (post May 1 deadline)...
their summary hurts a bit...
"His new team may not design its offense around him quite the way Northwestern did, but Nance will look even better if surrounded with better guards than he played with in Evanston."

Well, he did play in the front court with a future Duke player......I mean, weird that the writer singled out the guards, you know?
True. Nance and Young were on the court together 12.8% of the time.Well, he did play in the front court with a future Duke player......
/s
Amazing facts! Why didn't you tell us about this before???True. Nance and Young were on the court together 12.8% of the time.
Almost. Thirteen. Percent.
Nance with Beran? 38.4%
Nance with Elyjah Williams? 13.5%
Nance on the bench? 33.5%
Because we were all lost in a buzz following the glorious season unfolding before our eyes and making our final four plans...Amazing facts! Why didn't you tell us about this before???
