2020 Recruiting: Transfer Thread

[husky429]

I've been having a tricky time keeping track of all the grads and other transfers we're after. Put together this list. If I'm missing anyone or some more updated info on any players let me know and I can update it. I'm not exactly doing much during the day during quarantine, so I'll have the time, lol. Mods-- feel free to delete if you don't like the idea.

Guys were still on:


Ishmael El-Amin, Ball State-- 6'1 195 -- 13.8/3.1/2.3 2.0 TO 1.1 STL. 43% FG. 39% 3FG (6.3 attempts). 76% FT (2.3 attempts) (Kenpom 116, -1.7 SOS).

• We reached out.
• 1 year eligibility. Potentially a grad transfer?

Jalen Carey, I don't want to talk about it -- 6'3, 186 -- 3.5/1.6/1.0 1.6 TO 0.6 STL. 39% FG, 17% 3FG (0.9 attempts), 63% FT (1.6 Attempts). (kenpom 39, 10.1 SOS)

• We reached out.
• 3 years eligibility.
• Stats are from 18-19. 12 mpg

Tyrese Martin, UConn -- 6'6 205 -- 12.8/7.0/1.1 2.0 TO 1.1 STL. 43% FG. 32% 3FG (4.6 attempts). 66% FT (2.3 attempts). (Kenpom 65, 4.8 SOS).

• 2 years eligibility
• Committed.

Dimencio Vaughn

What's interesting to me is 1) how close in the kenpom all these guys teams are except for Kelly. 105-187. That must be the range where kids are good players for our level, but their teams were just bad enough they want to leave for better opportunities.

Also interesting how we're only on one 3/4 combo-type player-- Nolley. Hopefully that's a signal we're feeling confident in his recruitment.

justin turner cut us. his final list is now: Missouri, Xavier, Marquette, Arkansas, Louisville and Iowa State

 

[lange10]

We’re out on Turner. Weren’t in his final 6.

Don’t love that the NCAA may postpone the vote on immediate eligibility for all transfers til June. Don’t think it’s as much as a guarantee as some are saying. Very impactful decision from NCAA in terms of who we prioritize.

 

[tcf15]

Also still in on Tyrese Martin (URI).

Thanks. Just added Jamarius burton and removed turner. Didn't add Marial Mading because I don't think the interest is very serious for now.

i'll be the first to admit it's not anymore. wont be surprised at all if the ncaa somehow justifies voting no, at least until next year, b/c of the pandemic

That's why I wanted to start the thread. Totally forgot about him.

Rothstein's latest tweet doesn't have us showing interest, but another did. Not sure what the latest news is so I'll keep him on

I'll add him! One tweet saying we called, but not much more.

Definitely a little nervous about taking a kid from a terrible team with such low 3pt%s already. But trust in the staff--I know nothing about this kid.

 

[MDHuskFan]

Martin has been knocked a little as someone we don’t want I thought? He’s listed as #2 on this list.... anyone with knowledge could dm me why we may not want?

 

[tcf15]

Out on Kelly

Brunner, Carton, Aiken?

 

[husky429]

Brunner, Carton, Aiken?

Bruner -- Cut us.
Carton -- Haven't been linked to him.
Aiken -- Haven't been linked to him.

 

[KingAG]

Nolley is the guy. I’m assuming the staff feels really good on that front

 

[ucawn]

^agree. Staff doesn’t want him feeling like we’re recruiting guys to take his minutes. We be full. I would suppose that if Sanogo or Etienne wanted to reclass he would accept.

 

[bendm]

^agree. Staff doesn’t want him feeling like we’re recruiting guys to take his minutes.

welcome to the positive spin zone. they arent nolley's minutes until he commits. regardless, why couldnt hurley just explain to nolley that he's plan A, but we need to have a plan B so incase it doesnt work out we arent left with nothing?

 

[KingAG]

Unless Hurley knows his plan A is a lock. Idk, just a thought

 

[nadavtheman]

not sure why we were linked to him anyway, not the profile we are looking for. Too small

 

[UofCT]

Nolley is the guy. I’m assuming the staff feels really good on that front

Does Nolley have to sit?

 

[HuskyBoi]

Does Nolley have to sit?

I think he will be immediate if he is academically in good standing and has no discipline issues from his current team

 

[Stainmaster]

welcome to the positive spin zone. they arent nolley's minutes until he commits. regardless, why couldnt hurley just explain to nolley that he's plan A, but we need to have a plan B so incase it doesnt work out we arent left with nothing?

Why don't you trust Hurley to be able to do his job?

 

[bendm]

Why don't you trust Hurley to be able to do his job?

i do. i'm just not buying he "doesn’t want [nolley] feeling like we’re recruiting guys to take his minutes"

 

[navery12]

i do. i'm just not buying he "doesn’t want [nolley] feeling like we’re recruiting guys to take his minutes"

Yeah I think there's a better chance it's the uncertainty with a second scholarship opening up than scaring off Nolley

 

[husky429]

Added Trey Murphy.
