IL reporting Sowers to Duke.

Blergh, but as a Terp fan, better than Penn State!

Agreed. Boy...he solves a lot of problems that Duke had this past year.

And the other one, goaltending, may be solved by Mike Adler from St. Joe's. Was fun having that one half a year where Duke didn't have talent in droves overwhelming you.

And when they drop 2 early season games to teams they have no business losing to, we'll have to hear the same old narrative.

D1 MEN: Princeton’s Sowers Set to Join Duke in 2021.

How does Duke do this? They have 4&5 star kids throughout the line up who must be on some sort of partial lax scholarship. I would imagine the 12.6 gets used to the max each year with Duke being an expensive school. In order to land Sowers they must have had nearly a full scholarship avail. Unless most of the kids get some merit as well?

[Farfromgeneva]

Pretty certain merit aid isn’t available when on any scholarship.

Either way, no point in trying to reverse engineer Dukes method to madness. Chalk it up to the Nifong effect.

[FMUBart]

Correct, it's either financial aid or scholarship money, not both. I would suspect financial aid is generous for those in need. That is how Hobart is able to compete when cost of attendance is $60k+/year. Often the student/athlete is much better off with financial aid vs. partial athletic scholarship.

I feel bad for some of the kids that are not going to get playing time next year, Basile being one of them.

You have three types of assistance available the only two that can not be combined is Need based and Athletic

you can receive both Athletic and Academic
or
you can receive both Need Based and Academic

Not necessarily. In theory, Sowers came to Duke with little financial help from Duke. Not all kids need financial aid.

[bulax]

Jack Rapine, a fellow 2016 UD grad, could join Sowers at Duke. As one of if not the best defensemen in the portal, it would definitely be interesting to see them playing together in '21.

what is the theory on why you can't combine need based and athletic? That seems like it should be allowed, what am i missing?

Easy to abuse by the haves over the have nots in agreeing via the NCAA to be a collective function?

Wenz looked real good, a real active player, in the couple games I saw this past year.

To me, of top 5 transfer portal intrigue is Larson Sundown from WNY potentially leaving Limestone. The obvious to many would be Cuse or Albany but Cuse returns both 1st and 2nd mid lines and all of it's starting attack.Is there room for Sundown or does he head to Albany where there are seemingly more holes and opportunities or does he stay down in the Carolina's and find a home there with Duke or UNC?

Insane pedigree and resume for both field and box. Where does he land?

Apparently, Rehfuss is not returning.

Rehfuss announces return to Orange:

Not sure they even have room to add a talent like Sundown do they at this point? Would it even make sense?
