Xavier 247 writer thinks Missouri favorites for Justin Turner and that X wont be a serious player despite making final cut

[TAMU, Knower of Ball]

Pretty telling that Jonah Antonio didn't even make the honorable mention.

Yep, on paper I don't see anything that gets me excited about him. However, I do believe in the old adage that who is recruiting you is often more telling then anything else. He doesn't have any blue bloods chasing him, but he's got a few respectable high majors giving him a call. Those coaches are certainly more qualified than I am when it comes to evaluating talent.

Can someone who is following this closer than I am give me a summary of what transfers were still in on that haven't announced? 

Carlick Jones (grad PG)
Bryce Aiken (grad PG)
Justin Turner (grad SG)
Amauri Hardy (grad PG)
DJ Carton (sit 1, play 3 PG)
Mark Gasperini (grad big)

Who am I missing?

I think that's all of them. Some of these guys may have trimmed their lists and I missed it

Thanks TAMU.  Appreciate the response and all the work you do to keep us all informed on this stuff.  Cheers.

Also - maybe Wojo is confident that traditional transfers will be eligible right away, but I am surprised we're only after 1 grad transfer big (Gasperini).  We really need some insurance behind Theo, even if the guy isn't the sexiest.  Which is why I am fine with Gasperini, assuming other two spots go to some combination of Mane/Carton/Jones/Turner/Aiken.

I was thinking about this recently. I would like another center behind Theo but I'm not as angsty as I once was over it. Garcia has the size to play the 5 and I think that could lead to some fun uptempo lineups. My concern with that was him defending other 5s but then I started to think about the rosters of the other Big East teams. The biggest baddest bigs from last season are all graduating or likely to go pro. Gill, Yurtseven, Jones, JRE, Young, Reed...they're all likely not in conference next season. Most of our conference mates don't have big bruisers next season but more players like Garcia, face up bigs who like to stretch the defense. Watson at Providence, Carlton at UConn, and maybe Wahab at Georgetown are the only three bigs I'd be worried about Garcia getting overwhelmed by physically. Epperson too if he is healthy. All the others, it may be an advantage to have a lighter quicker forward at backup C.

Sacred Heart guard Koreem Ozier is in the NCAA Transfer Portal, per a source. Averaged 14 PPG and made 60 three-pointers on the season.

[dad's couch]

TAMU. You forgot Epperson at Creighton coming back although he has some 3 pt range. I would also like a C to back Theo up, especially with the possibility of him needing surgery. With the CoronaVirus who knows if what Theo needs can be considered elective and put off until a much later time impacting his recovery time greatly. But I've also read the coaching staff thinks Osa and Lewis flexibility allows them to play the 5. And as you mentioned, the guys they'll face in conference aren't bruisers so going with athleticism over brute force may be the way to go.

Everyone stay healthy.

San Francisco's leading scorer, Charles Minlend, is in the portal, source told @Stadium. 6-4 junior guard averaged 14.4 points and 4.7 boards this past season. Will be a grad transfer.

Agreed, though I didn't forget Epperson

He's from the northern suburbs of Chicago and was all-state in Illinois. I don't think Marquette had any interest in him coming out of high school.

Why would they, given the whole killing his ex-wife thing.

Tremendous work, Pride.

Could really use a Harry Froling right about now.

I do not like this immediate transfer thing. We have three freshmen that I am pretty excited about. The thought that they can jus jump ship after one year makes me nervous. I rather see them all get huge playing time, than bring in a grad transfer that would reduce their playing time. The way I see it is that the more they play the less likely they will just decide to go else where after their freshmen year.

Nope, that was beyond tacky.

It was obviously a joke. I doubt that he would be offended.

Obviously a very tasteless  joke.  But, then, this is Scoop.
