2024 NCAA Transfer Portal Megathread

Out of curiosity, hIstorically what was CJ Fredrick stats-wise in comparison to HIckman? That's pretty much what we're attempting to replace here.

Thanks. This is a lot more smoke than just the "reached out" notices we get from Twitter.

Hickman is a top 20 transfer (as of now) per box plus minus and one of the best shooters in the portal at 41% from three on 6 attempts per game. He's not a good slasher, defender or rebounder, but he could replace what we were hoping to get from CJ this year. What concerns me is he was a negative defender in the 10 top 100 level games he played this year.

Yes, but the first meeting was an Adams solo trip. Miller's on this one. Also, Nebraska are in to see Hickman today as well. Indiana went to Peoria yesterday.

It was mentioned in this thread that Adams just met him in Peoria last Wednesday. Is this the second meeting in less than a week?

Chad Brendel on the radio just now said Wes and Drew Adams are in Peoria today visiting Bradley guard Connor Hickman. He scored 14 against us in the NIT.

Omaha Biliew into the portal. We offered Biliew out of HS and he choose Iowa St where he didn’t see the court much. Has 3 years left.

East Carolina's second-leading scorer has a final six schools of Mississippi State and five ACC schools.

Man, ECU has really brought in some good kids who have transferred out (Tristen Newton, Jayden Gardner, etc.). Every year.

WVU's Kerr Kriisa is portaling.

Add Jamarii Thomas to the list, a 6'0" PG from Norfolk St. He's a high usage distributor who gets to the line, makes 39% from three, and is a good defender.

Goldin will probably follow Dusty May to Michigan.

[GoBearcats31]

Per On3's Jamie Shaw, UC has reached out to Norfolk State transfer Jamarii Thomas:

- 6'0 junior from Greensboro, NC
- Two years at UNCW, averaged 16.9, 3.8 and 3.8 this past season at Norfolk, where he was named MEAC Player of the Year

Vik's compatriot Vlad Goldin is in the portal, I wonder if they might try to play together.

I'd be happier if Golden chase to replace Vik.

BearcatBunch maintains a running list here: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets...P20/edit#gid=0

So far 11 guards and a couple of forwards.

PortalReport grades for six of the players we've contacted: https://twitter.com/ThePortalReport/...153025/photo/1

Ra'Heim Moss ranked first, Jason Edwards last.

Interesting about the guards with possible bigs leaving.
