Per Verbal Commits, Blake Francis of Wagner is transferring. Francis was 2nd team All-NEC.
 
I think I'm pretty obsessive looking for updated info, but some of you guys really get down in the weeds to dig up stuff. Thanks! I've missed conversion here the prior couple of days. Maybe we should be happy there has been no unfortunate news, at least.
 
The transfer list on Verbal Commits just keeps growing and growing. Considering they don't have Dachon Burke listed yet indicates that the list is far from complete.
Obviously, the NEC, including, or especially, RMU, has a problem losing transfers, but it is a national epidemic.

The high-level programs are facing a challenging problem that has been increasing the last couple of years, a lot of players are conditionally declaring for the NBA draft
with the option of returning if they do not hire an agent. That leaves those programs in a bind not knowing how many scholarships they have to fill.

Being a college coach today is a challenging proposition regardless of being in a high-profile program or a low-profile program.

Dunn from SFBK is another transfer to add to this this.

I’m sure there are more.
 
Noticed that 6'4 freshman PG Torrey Patton is transferring from Akron. The 2 time all Ohio player had HS offers including RMU and Duquesne (probably after Akron's coach moved to Duq). Maybe a good target for a move to the Pittsburgh area?

Might have had contact with the Williams before (Josh).

Maybe he could help bring him to RMU.

On top of the offers u listed, he had Wright St. & Miami (Ohio) as his 2 other D1 offers.
 
Per VC Bryant was very active this week making almost 20 offers, with numerous going to HS freshmen and sophomores.
