Change is seemingly the only constant in college basketball, as NCAA transfer data shows that nearly 40-percent of players who enter Division I out of high school transfer by the end of their sophomore year.

A Sports Illustrated study of transfer data reveals that since 2012, the amount of players who’ve transferred up to higher-rated leagues from the low- and mid-levels of college basketball has more than tripled. This has gutted rosters, led directly to coaches losing their jobs and twisted the culture to the point where star players leaving small schools has gone from an anomaly to an expectation.

“Small colleges are becoming the minor leagues for the big schools,” says Sonny Vaccaro, a longtime sneaker company executive who has been involved with college basketball for decades. “The small schools are being penalized for their success recruiting and developing players.”

SI’s study found that in 2012, 28 players left their schools for distinctly higher levels—19 traditional transfers and nine graduate students who were immediately eligible. Last off-season, that number jumped to 91, with 42 traditional transfers and 49 graduate transfers who were immediately eligible.

This is interesting. He's a thick, athletic 6'8". Left NU (he said) so that he could go somewhere where he could be more of a 3 or 4 (He was a 5 for two years in Lincoln) since that's where he sees his best chance to make it to the next level. I have no idea if he can shoot well or not, but if he can score from mid-range and handle the ball a little bit, he could be a nice get. He's tremendous on the glass. I assume Wojo has assured him that he won't have to play the 5 in Milwaukee.

What do you guys have for size the next few years?
