Rule is you get one immediate transfer per career, and he already had one when he transferred to Duke. Just a guess, I have no idea if that's actually the reason.Quote:

I think this knocks VT down a notch for the upcoming season. Radford was a great defender and playmaker. He changes the dynamic of their backcourt quite a bit. With Storm Murphy and Hunter Cattoor as the starting guards, the Hokie backcourt is going to be good at spacing the court but much less capable of attacking the rim in my view.
Storm and Hunter will be a all-name backcourt, though.Quote:

I could have sworn he announced a while back, or at least it was announced, he would not be returning to UNC.Quote:

The more I look at it, the more I think he was going to be nothing more than a back end rotation guy had he stayed at UNC. Platek was a wing and Carolina has a pretty good complement of wings ahead of him in the rotation in returnees Leaky Black, Kewin Walton, and RJ Davis as well as a couple well-regarded (top 60ish recruits) freshmen in Dontrez Styles and D'Marco Dunn. I suppose there is a scenario where the freshmen are not ready to contribute even in a small way, but if either of them are any good at all then Platek was going to be the 5th or 6th man in the wing rotation, at best. I doubt Carolina really feels much of a need to replace him.Quote:

Still, anything that affects them negatively is good news 8-)
UC, maybe you're thinking of Walker Kessler? Sorry, (tried hard but) couldn't resist.Quote:
