The Transfer Portal and the WSU Cougars

Next Monday is the beginning
of the transfer portal for college
basketball.I know the regular
season is over however the
post season is not. I wish they
would wait until April to do so. 
It is only a couple additional
weeks.

The Washington State Cougars
will be taking on Georgetown
in a new post season tournament
on March 31. News came out
thst Isaiah Watts is entering the
transfer portal. A key loss going
into next season and so he won't
be playing against Georgetown.

Recently Isaiah lost his grandfather
Slick. A former Seattle Supersonic
that many of us watched him play.
Isaiah's father Donald played for
Washington Huskies. Growing up
in Seattle be interesting to see
whether he will go to Washington
or decide to go elsewhere.

The Cougars starting fowards who
had good season's for them Erik 
Erikstrup and Ethan Price are
graduating. So for now that is 
sixty percent of their starting
five.

As of now LeJuan Watts who
is not related to Isaiah and 
Nate Calmese are the only
returning starters at this point.
Calmese is a former Husky
who led the Cougars in scoring
while LeJuan was the leading
rebounder

Freshman Tomas Valur Prastarson
an international player from Island
will likely start in Isaiah's spot
as he did when he was out with
injury earlier on in the season.
He to.made the West Coast Conference all freshman team.

We let you know how the Cougars
will do in acquiring incoming
freshmen and any through the
transfer portal. The Cougars hope
to improve over the sixth place
finish in the tough West Coast
Conference. Go Cougs!
