News and notes from Houston, where San Diego State prepares for Saturday's showdown against Florida Atlantic
Florida Atlantic coach Dusty May let it slip last week before the Elite Eight game against Kansas State. The subject of the transfer portal came up and he blurted out:
May backed off his comments slightly Friday, insisting it was “a little overblown” and is “a nontalking point.” Of the nine-man rotation, four — Matt Bradley, Nathan Mensah, Aguek Arop and Adam Seiko — will exhaust their eligibility in Houston. Two — Darrion Trammell and Micah Parrish — would be second-time transfers, and the NCAA recently issued a memo indicating it will severely restrict multiple transfers. One, Jaedon LeDee, would be a third-time transfer.
“It’s kind of too late to complain about it now,” Bradley said. “I’ve heard people say certain things, from coaches to players. I hope moving forward that they let us in on what’s going on and see if we have some pointers on it. We’re the ones shooting it. Maybe take some air out of it, or maybe use this ball.
“When you’re a scorer, you’ve got to think: ‘If they give you a bowling ball, you’ve got to make it,’” Bradley said. “I don’t want to blame the ball too much because it’s not changing. I’ve got to deal with it. I’ve made shots with it in shootaround. I just have to get out of my own head and just go out there and play basketball.
