Huskies Men's Basketball Transfer Portal News and More

Tge Washington Huskies men's basketball team took a hit on this

coming season recruiting class.

Incoming freshman and McDonald

All-American power forward Niko

Bundalo has decided to enter the 

transfer portal after committing

to the Huskies back last November.

Probably the main reason is the

Huskies signed two power forward a

since his commitment. He may feel

that he won't get the playing time

he anticated when signing with the

Huskies. This could be true and his

agent or coaches may have spoken

those words to him.

The NCAA needs to make some

rules in regarding to the transfer

portal and incoming freshmen

recruits.  I have mentioned before

that when a player leaves a team

they shouldn't be allowed to play

for a team in the same conference.

Schools should not go after players

as well. If the player seeks out a

school that makes sense. I believe

a player can only accept from one

school during the year. Other words

he can't change his mind. The only

exception is that the coach gets 

fired or leaves for another job. If 

the coach gets fired and is hired

elsewhere the player can follow to

that school. If the coach leaves

the player can to but not to the

school the coach goes to for a

year anyway. Those are not the

rules now but my opinion.

Tuesday Dylan Moore went on

the injured list for ten days for

a hip injury. The Mariners have 

brought up Samal Taylor from

triple A Tacoma. He most likely

play against lefties in right field

though he has played some 

infield as well. Miles Mastrobuioni

is the top utility player now though

he hits from the left side. He and

Leo Rivas will likely share second

base and he may play third base

against some righties. It looks

like Dylan won't be gone long

since retroactive to March 26.

The Mariners have a short series

having two games at home Tuesday

and Wednesday. The Mariners go

for three games beginning Friday 

At Texas Rangers then the A's at

Sacramento before coming back

home for two series against

Toronto and the New York Yankees.

Bryce Miller will start Tuesday nights

game against the Angel. Emerson

Hancock will start the second game

on Wednesday afternoon. 

Jorge Polanco was named player

of the week in the American League.

The Mariners are now in first place. 

Go M's.
