The NCAA Board recommended AGAINST allowing transfer players to play immediately with the new team. That was the Board, the entire membership has yet to vote on the proposal.

I’m thinking Coach Johnson would prefer getting a veteran who can contribute next season rather than an excellent player who has to sit. Thus, I doubt The USC Weaver is his top target right now. We need a PG - Buggs would have been ideal. Also, Coach Johnson won’t settle for a so-so player to fill a hole either. In my opinion only.

Nice!! Bring it on, Big East!
Coach Stan is used to recruiting against those schools.

He's at Monmouth, so clearly he likes going to school near the beach.

Just some observations:
Depaul and St.Johns both recruited him out of high school.
A teammate of his last year (point guard) transferred to St. Johns.
Can't tell if he was a true PG. His assist numbers are decent.
He is from Brooklyn.
He has some pretty good rebound numbers too, so he's an all-around stat stuffer.
He is expected to graduate soon (may already have?), so he would be a 1-yr instant eligible grad transfer.
Doubt he has made an in-person visit, which would be a shame, since LMU's campus is miles better than Depaul and St. John's.
His final three are in NYC, Chicago, and LA.
Comes down to if he wants playing time here or exposure at a Big East school.

Either way, there is no doubt that Coach Johnson wants to field a winning team stocked with experienced players this season! I expect our next guard will be from a list of guys who can take the court right away and not sit.
