2024 NCAA Transfer Portal Megathread

[Lobot]

As Xavier continues to add solid pieces in a total roster overhaul and they get hyped up from the likes of Fox's John Fanta, Desmond Claude (16.6 points, 4.2 rebounds, 3.2 assists) just hit the portal.

So between he and Quincy Olivari, that is 35.7 ppg gone, and they seem to be putting a lot of faith in the return of Zach Freemantle (hasn't played since 1/28/2023) and Jerome Hunter (missed all of this season too).

Has Hunter been cleared to play yet?

Adou Thiero from UK is in the portal. He was a guy that we had targeted late in his class cycle out of HS. We finished 2nd in that race. Expect contact here

Thiero reportedly down to Pitt, UNC, Arkansas, Kentucky (stay put), Indiana

Baylor being mentioned with a couple big portal names. Big 12 doing big things in portal season.

Kansas adds A.J. Storr -- a Wisconsin guard ranked among the top 10 or so transfers.

Jayhawks may be loaded next season.

Maybe. I think the guys they've brought in are overrated. All three are negative defenders and only Mayo is an efficient scorer.

Recent Big 12 portal entrants include UCF's 4th-leading scorer Marchelus Avery and TCU's 4th-leading scorer JaKobe Coles.

Coles commits to Grand Canyon.

I think we should hold out for a premier player.....a difference maker, regardless of position. Go for the gusto!

Intriguing name - 6'6 senior from Indianapolis who played two at Louisville and two at Seton Hall - COVID year (one year) left)

@jeffborzello
Seton Hall senior Dre Davis plans to enter the transfer portal, sources told ESPN. Averaged 15.0 points and 5.9 rebounds this season. Was terrific in the Pirates’ run to an NIT title, scoring 18 points in the championship game win over Indiana State.

Ole Miss for DD

UCF grad transfer CJ Walker staying in the league - TCU

No longer committed to TCU

[Lobot]

Someone told me today unofficially he is not visiting. I'd be surprised any more players would be added in the backcourt.

I'm ok with that. Doesn't seem like a good fit to me.

[coach]

Best info I can find is post SJU visit a few days ago and he did not commit, so I'm assuming it's on. Nothing on the social side to indicate either way. It's not going to surprise me if he double dips on this visit and gets in some time at XU.

Warrick visiting Missouri this weekend, per The Portal Report

Sounds like NKU's Warrick is likely Missouri bound. Cannot say UC would have gotten him, but I imagine their pursuit ended when they took Hickman -- who probably fits the roster best anyways.

UPDATE -- Marques Warrick has committed to Mizzou

Yohan Traore is in the portal 6’11 C that’s a former UC target . 5 star that started at Auburn and is currently at UC Santa Barbara.

UC among the many to reach out to Yohan Traore https://twitter.com/247HSHoops/statu...84516773773355

6'11 C from France who averaged 14.5 points and 5.1 rebounds this year as a sophomore. Surprisingly has not blocked many shots.

Tyler Bilodeau from Oregon St is on the radar for the coaches. 6'9 Multipositional big man. Would have 2 years remaining.

My hope if not for a pure floor leader although Connor H. is said to make few mistakes, is to get a guy with more than one year and if he is productive, keep him.
