Chane Behanan dismissed from Louisiville

[MadtownGopher]

Any chance younger Pitino would offer him a second chance even though his dad dismissed him?

don't know much about him, but I'm assuming we could use him! sign him up!

I really doubt after this situation that he'd want to play for Pitino's son. Different situation here with Behanen on Pitino's bad side and a shaky relationship from what it sounds like.

"According to Pitino, Behanan has the option to transfer to another school or hire a trainer and an agent and start preparing for a professional career. Should Behanan choose to transfer, Pitino said he would like to sit down with him and find a school and a coach that is a good fit."

I'm thinking that good fit might be playing for his son...

That sounds a bit like re-gifting. In this case, though, would he be considered a white elephant?

Considering all the problems he has had throughout his career and the fact he would only have a half season of eligibility left if he transfers, I think Richard should pass.

A half season of eligibility?

A half season of eligibility?

Yes. Seeing that he already played in 12 games this season, if he transfers, he'll burn the rest of this year of eligibility. Then he'll have to sit out until the end of next December and he will be eligible to play the rest of the season after that. That will constitute his Senior season and he will have no more eligibility left in College Basketball.

Luke Fischer transferring from Indiana is available too. Long shot though, most coaches block transfers with-in the conference. But Uthoff forced the Badgers to let him go to Iowa so it has been done

 

[MadtownGopher]

8 teams have already contacted Behanan

Pass. He's solid, but he's not great. His talent doesn't come close to justifying the headaches. We don't need clowns.

I'd guess Marquette since he's from the Milwaukee area and had an offer from Buzz. Wisconsin didn't offer originally so I don't think they'll be in the mix. Wouldn't mind Pitino going after him if he thinks he can get him. Would be a better transfer than the Utah State kid.

Fred Hoiberg's head is probably spinning right now, several high profile transfer candidates available at once!!

Now now. He needs to save at least one of those scholarships for Rashad Vaughn.

And Iowa St is. Not surprising.
