Big East Roster Updates

[TAMU, Knower of Ball]

Figured we could use a thread to track players from around the conference who are deciding to transfer in/out, use/not use their COVID year, and declare for the draft.

A few notes to add...

• Shaheen Holloway expected to be announced by Seton Hall no later than today.
  
• Aaron Wheeler is leaving St. John's to go pro.
  
• Tyrese Martin is leaving UConn to go pro.
  
• RJ Cole has signed with an agent.

Could they announce it earlier than today?

Figured we could use a thread to track players from around the conference who are deciding to transfer in/out, use/not use their COVID year, and declare for the draft. Mostly quiet so far with the biggest news being Cole declaring for the NBA.

What I've got so far:

Butler:
Bryce Golden transferring

Creighton:
No updates

DePaul:
Courvouisier McCauley transferring
Javon Freeman-Liberty hasn't declared yet but has publicly talked about leaning towards going pro

Georgetown:
Wayne Bristol Jr transferring in from Howard (2020 MEAC ROY)

Marquette:
Greg Elliott hasn't officially announced but has talked publicly about this being his last season

Providence:
Ed Croswell confirmed he is coming back on his COVID year

Seton Hall:
Kevin Willard to Maryland, no word on new coach yet
Jared Rhoden hasn't declared yet but said he's "90% certain" he's going pro

St. John's:
Jalen Rosemond transferring (walk on)
Julian Champagnie hasn't declared yet but said before the season started that this was his last year in college

UConn:
RJ Cole has declared for the NCAA Draft
Rashool Diggins transferring (former top 75 recruit but didn't get off the bench this season)

Villanova:
No Updates

Xavier:
Sean Miller hired as coach
Hercy Miller transferring from Tennessee State (walk on)

Any chance you'd do graduating players?  Or would that get too cluttered?

This list will be quite the undertaking to maintain. Good luck and thanks in advance. And, what pick does Marquette have in the NCAA draft? Wonder if Cole will still be available.

It's been reported since Sunday that it will come no later than today.

[Boone]

Great recap. Small nit to pick: Samuel is from Seton Hall

Edited...it was Tyrese Martin from UConn that declared.

Is that a new term for the transfer portal?

Former Wojo target if I remember correctly

For those of us that are super lazy.

Who is all leaving the BE due to eligibility.

[brewcity77]

Tyler Beard, Timothy Ighoefe, and Jalin Billingsley from Georgetown have all entered the transfer portal.

Manny Bates to Georgetown.

Reported by fake account.

Caught it after replying.

Not Big East, but future opponent related. Blake Wesley of Notre Dame declared for the Draft. Johnny Davis from Wisconsin will announce his future tomorrow on NBA Today. Pretty sure you don't go on NBA Today to say you're staying in college.

That would be hilarious if he did.  Anytime ESPN is duped I'm happy.

Thanks for all the updates and suggestions everyone. I originally thought this would just be a place to post updates but I like the idea of keeping the first page updated as we go. I updated the layout and will fill in the updates when I have time. Started with Butler to see how it would look

[PointWarrior]

Lots of senior talent in the league this past year.  Butler and Providence all seniors.  Top talent in UConn, Xavier, Nova seniors.  Maybe a one year older MU team has a chance in a younger, less talented BEast next year. 

Leaving out seniors with an added year (like Greg Elliott)

Butler:
Aaron Thompson
Ty Groce
Bryce Nze

As one who is not up to date on all things MU/college basketball I really appreciate it.

Yor Anei from DePaul will be returning to take advantage of his final year.
