2024 NCAA Transfer Portal Megathread

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.

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.

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.

Fredrick and Hickman are very similar players. CJ shoots a few percentage points better for his career, but he also puts up fewer shots and doesn't do much of anything inside the arc. Hickman is asked to be more of a volume shooter and create his own shot on a mid major squad. Neither is a great defender or rebounder. Identical career assist rates of 14% (ok for a wing). Both saw dips in production in 2023. They're both 6'3" pure shooting guards.

CJ: 41% from three on 338 attempts in 94 games
Hickman: 38% from three on 407 attempts in 93 games

UC among the many who have reached out to Zeke Mayo, a 6'4 junior at South Dakota State from Lawrence, KS (per Joe Tipton).

Zeke averaged 18.8 / 5.7 / 3.5 - including 19 points in an NCAA Tournament lost to Iowa State last week.

Kansas bound. Makes sense.

He's going to the G-League and trying for a 2 way contract.

We are out on Tony Perkins. He's cut his list to 6 and we're not on it.

With All-American Jamal Shead expected to leave, Houston will turn to the transfer portal for a replacement at point guard. “If you are not utilizing the transfer portal today then you’re getting behind,” coach Kelvin Sampson said in a lengthy interview this week. “The portal has been great for us.”
