Harry Froling transferring

[RGV Pony]

Frolings quote is priceless

[Stallion]

Rumor is that he tired and became fatigued due to long walk from Freshman Quad to Dallas Hall for class

[JasonB]

Don't forget his leg injury before the season may be impacting his foot speed, his jumping ability and his fitness.

Frustrating decision, it really hurts the depth and I liked how he passed the ball.

That said, I think we were already migrating the offense to take advantage of Semi and Shake more, which might have minimized his game. I don't think this is a coincidence in timing with the offense and defense changing over the next two weeks.

I foresee a lot of pick and roll and isolation on offense moving forward.

Defensively, I can see a lot of 2-3 zone and zone press. Frolling would have really struggled in the press. You can hide lack of depth inside with zone defense. Going straight up man is a disaster.

NCAA may want to examine the mid-term transfer-its not good for either the player's athletic or academic progress nor is it advantageous to universities

Note the affect is unique to Basketball since Football season doesn't transverse mid term. You don't get to suit up in football halfway through the season-you have to miss an entire season

Yeah its not good. It either wastes a players eligibility (by wasting two years to play half of freshman year and half of sophomore year) or they have to pull a Semi and sit out for almost two years.

Also, we better hope Froling got over a 2.6GPA this semester or signs with a pro team so we dont lose an APR points.

I guess going to the same school as his sisters meant nothing to him either.

remember that one sister transferred as well

Keely did not transfer - she returned to Australia and is now playing professionally for the Canberra Capitals. Alicia is still at SMU and playing really well for the women's team.

I don't want to put too much stock into Froling family dynamics but I doubt this had much to do with Harry's decision.

[jimhagle]

I didn't know one of his sisters transfered. Don't follow the women that much.

[Top Twenty]

Looks like Ollie, plays like Stan.

[Bergermeister]

The Greek is a German.

Was it over when the Greeks bombed Pearl Harbor?

[gostangs]

If sports is about fun - lets pretend he is Greek instead of German.

[smusic 00]

Beware of Greeks bearing gifts. Was Harry a Trojan horse?

Also, I believe he is Greek and went to upper school academy in Germany; not uncommon for young athletes in EU.

this pictures tells the story about his vertical challenges-he's at least a couple of inches off the floor

[mrydel]

He is like me. My 36" vertical consists of jumping off a 3' table.

Regardless of what y'all say. Harry had great potential. Saw him work in the post a few times, had the footwork and definitely had the size. Also was impressed with his shot. There is some blame to go all around - run a pick and pop for him more often. Get him that jumper he looks for, post him up. He got the ball in the post all but 5 times this year. That's why he was so timid, he got blocked from behind on his lay-up attempt and played timid the rest of the year because they never gave him an option to succeed. You never know what is happening in practice either, maybe he was dogging it or getting yammed on every day.

And the fans....Shame on us [including me]. He started getting cheered sarcastically like he was the towel boy getting his first rebound.

But the blame equally on him. He did not come into the season in good shape. Looked like he was a step slower then the rest of them. That's probably why he didn't get the opportunity he was looking for. Can't come into a team full of 3rd and 4th year guys and expect to be the guy. Unrealistic Expectations for yet another high-profile athlete.

Wish him the Best
