Little Rock grad transfer Rayjon Tucker (20.3 PPG, 6.7 RPG) has heard from Arizona, Arizona State, St. John's, Utah, Ole Miss, Memphis, TCU, Nevada, Pittsburgh, Georgia Tech, Miami, South Carolina, Auburn, UConn, Texas Tech, Maryland, West Virginia, Grand Canyon, Rhode Island.

Is he forbidden from transferring to another SBC school? Damn we need a SF after Benlevi graduates.

That's got to sting, didn't he play one season in LR?

If we as a conference don't start taking basketball more seriously we will see more and more of our players taking advantage of the relaxed transfer rules.

Trojans went 10-21 and 5-13. That's a tough situation when transferring is so easy.

I am not sold on Walker as a coach (I'm not sold on my coach either) busting as an NBA coach isn't a strike against him, but his Division II record while nice, came in one of the weaker leagues in Division II and went 0-2 in post-season.

BOP probably remembers better than I do, but my recollection is that we had a two or three year stretch when we lost the Sun Belt Freshman of the Year to transfer each year.

Tucker's hometown is Charlotte, although from the school's he's hearing from (considering?) that may not matter at all.

Yep, as a GT fan I remember Atlanta native Brandon Reed coming over from Arkansas State after his FOTY season...but in a strange twist he actually ended up back at stAte for his final year.

i remember the FOY from Western Kentucky and FAU transferring after winning the award. There may be more.

It's very possible Tucker won't be the only LR player to transfer. From what I understand, they were in near revolt after the Cajuns beat them in the final weekend.

Brandon Reed from AState was the second or third in a row.

Rumors of revolt at UALR have been rampant since the start of the final home stand.

Not much talent to drain at Troy.

All of the best talent Cunningham has ever had just graduated these past two seasons.

I wonder if there's ever been a player besides Reed that transferred away, and then back to the team they originally started with
