You are assuming that Coach GMAC would want him as a walk-on? that goes without saying. But he is a legacy and gave his all when given the opportunity. I doubt Courtney would be a negative in the locker room. But again it is all on the head coach. You have to think that Coach GMAC is looking to improve the roster top to bottom, including the walk-ons, given this past seasons horrific results. Looks like he is keeping 3 legacy players. I am not sure it makes sense to keep any more. New coaching staff, new team, new style of play and new path to success. Fresh start.

Again it is certainly McNamara's decision, but as walkons go at the Siena level, Courtney is better than most.

I heard most of the transfers out are waiting to see which P5 school Caem lands at as an assistant and then they can follow him

There are still over 1000 names in the portal. While more are finding new homes everyday, it will only speed up in may as teams get ready for summer workouts.

Classy. I hope he gets an offer somewhere. Agreed, he put up with a lot and he was asked to do to much. Hopefully he lands in a better situation

Maybe the word got out that he quit on his team last year. I liked Eley as a player, but the only thing on his mind last year was cashing in like his buddy McCollum. He could care less about his teammates … or Siena.

He could care less about his teammates … or Siena. You are entitled to your opinion, but I think you statement is complete BS. He was injured almost the entire season and played often while hurt. Maybe him being prone to injury or him playing on one of the worse teams in D1 is the reason why he has not landed anywhere yet. BTW, there are plenty of talented players that have not found a new team yet. www.espn.com/mens-college-basketball/story/_/id/39945519/2024-25-ncaa-mens-college-basketball-transfer-portal-tracker-updates-visits-commitments. There will be upward of 2,000 players in the portal by the time it closes for all players on May 1.
