D1 Transfers from Verbal Commits

Recommended Posts

Don't think Knight is an NBA player via draft or elsewhere for the foreseeable future.  He is very good and would be a great overseas player, but unless something has changed (not sure), second rounders are not guaranteed a contract in the NBA. He's listed at 6'10" but seemed shorter than Alex.  He has great skill but isnt the quickest guy in the world but at that size he's a 4 and would be tough for him to guard 4's in the league.

Personally, I hope he moves on. While he may not be super athletic, he can shoot from the outside & is a good passer. Maybe some NBA team will see him as a project & stash him on the bench or in the G-League for a year.

Up to 504 transfers. Villanova just lost Jahvon Quinnerly, a former five-star point guard from New Jersey. Too rich for our blood. 

Now Pitt/St. John's transfer Malik Ellison, I'm sure is a huge longshot, but is from D.C. Avg. 5.8ppg and shot just 3 of 16 from 3pt. but that's a small sample size. Shot 34% from 3 at St. John's. 6-6, 215

How much time does a coaching staff have to evaluate all these guys? In other words, is there a deadline by which players have to declare they’re in the transfer portal and when is the deadline for signing players? Obviously, they have to be in class in late August, when fall semester begins, but what is the cutoff date for signing?

Here’s an interesting name who just announced he’s transferring: Sam Iorio from American U. Would be a sit 1/play 2. 6’’6. Has shot over 50% on 2’s both as a freshman & sophomore. Shot 43% on 3’s as a freshman, but dipped to 35% this past season. Averaged 6.5 boards per game in both freshman & sophomore seasons. Also averaged 2apg, along with 1 steal & 1 blocked shot a game this past season. 

Competition could be stiff & not sure if he wants to go to a school comparable to AU, in terms of academics, but he is following one of our coaches on twitter

6’8 Nate Sestina of Bucknell, has transferred to Kentucky. Averaged 16 points & 8 boards a game. From the Patriot League to UK. Probably doesn’t bode well for us getting the American U transfer, Sam Iorio. Iorio’s numbers aren’t quite the same as Sestina’s, but still....

Sam Iorio is not athletic enough to play in the CAA.  He's a 6'5 230 lb (non)power forward in the PL!

Slowing down some. Now at 541. Latest is Jordan Allen from Rider, who is a r-sophomore. Now if he transfers and sits, he'll only have one year left, assuming he hasn't graduated in three years. Maybe he has. Had a very good freshman season but tailed off as a sophomore.

Another good sophomore is out there. Eric Williams Jr. from Duquesne. (he's good but pass on another Duquesne transfer)
