Interesting! Probably a pipe dream, but he's from Chicago and he went to Simeon. Maybe he wants to finish his career by playing in front of family and friends??? Did we offer him out of high school?

Will Moss be a grad transfer?? Or did he get a waiver from ncaa?? How many years of eligibility will he have?

I get that they were a miracle story two years ago, but is that expected to continue? Not sure I get Loyola as a destination school for a talented player.

Moss is from Chicago (literally the City and not the suburbs) and Loyola just went to the Final Four. This makes waaaay more sense to me than Benson going to Southern Illinois. And honestly, if you are talking about non-basketball job prospects, I think Loyola carries more weight in Chicago than Iowa because of the amazing alumni network.

If Loyola ate a different breakfast before their last game they could have been back in the tournament.

They've recruited well and they've developed players....such that a 4* forward just chose to leave because he can't get playing time

What’s that about a breakfast?

We hate it when “bluebloods” talk like this of us in football so we shouldn’t do it to others.

A good destination school is whatever the player feels is their best personal fit. That’s all there is to it.

Loyola coach runs a program with intregrity and is not a "jumper" as Al McGuire once put it (talking about KO) always looking for the next job.. Maybe he'll be their Fitz. I bet Illinois State is sorry they let him go after only three seasons!

just because he hasn't taken one yet, doesn't mean he isn't looking

It’s about as understandable as NU.
