Eh I wouldnt go that far. He was a good set shooter. He was awful when he had to put the ball on the floor and drive

We won't make up those points, period.

This is now an NIT team and regrouping for 24-25 when Ace gets here and Gavin has a year under his belt.

Not a big deal, very much replaceable and ultimately, not that surprising, given the current landscape of college basketball.

The RU roster needs to play a faster and quicker version of basketball, that can push the ball and get shots in transition. Griffiths is really now properly slotted as the starting SG or 2G and we don't have to have him anywhere near the 4 spot.

Think it’s already a done deal with a particular school, or do you think that when things settle he possibly winds up back at Rutgers?

I like the analysis Hawk! Could definitely see that now! Still stinks to lose him but we got a lot of good players coming too in the next few years!

My guess is a top team called with $$$ and wants a shooter off the bench. Pure speculation but this one is totally out of left field so im trying to figure out how/why
Definitely 💰💰 and schools were tampering most likely. It’ll be interesting to see where he ends up!

There's literally nothing you won't attempt to spin, Greg. It's.a crushing blow for any NCAA hopes for the upcoming season no matter how many words you'll type about it to dismiss its significance.

Lot of guards on this roster before this transfer and the more PT for Simpson and Gavin the better off we will be down the line. 2024 roster construction is the most important thing for this program at the moment. Imo

Fans were told time and again that Spencer was returning.This off season has certainly been full of surprises in regard to the coaching staff and transfers coming and going.The loss of Spencer's 3 point shooting can't be understated along with his leadership on the court.

Tbh, its hard to blame the kids. It shouldve never gotten to this. If someone offers a 22 year old $250K (random number, no inside info) to dribble a basketball for 4 months, its hard to turn down.

TBH, if youre a good player why arent you entering the portal every off season, fielding offer$ and then going back to your program and say, “match or im out”. They match, you stay, they wont, you go.

If this happened two months ago- maybe.
But it’s slim pickings right now. Not a good take Hawk.

I agree that we shouldn't be surprised by anything these days
Bright side - gives us a chance to get more athletic and get a defensive wing in the portal that wouldn't have considered us with Cam in the picture
Down side is we're unlikely to find another shooter of his caliber- that hurts

Hard to figure out his reasoning - maybe Cam knows something about Cliff that we don't?
I can't imagine him being a more important part of the offense at any good high major.
