Michigan State guard A.J. Hoggard in the portal. 

He has his COVID year remaining, and Izzo apparently didn't want him back.

Initially said he'd test the NBA waters. Don't know if he still will, but he has entered the portal. 

11 points, 5 assists in nearly 29 minutes game last season. Nearly 35% shooter from distance. 

 

 

I have a feeling there's gonna be quite a bit of action on this one.

Granted I haven't had a chance to see Humrichous play really... but I'd call that a winning trade

Hard to say.  I’ve not seen enough. Both sides benefit. Indiana gets it’s shooter off the bench that is probably Goode enough to be a starter on a lot of teams and in a lot is situations.  
 

Illionis gets a bit rangier guy that they project to be a definite starter.  
 

Jury is out.

Definitely big benefit for both teams... I give the edge to Goode just based on the fact he's been playing in the B10 already in this role (very well) and has another year of eligibility. We'll find out if Humrichous' game translates up... the stroke looks pure, for sure.

In portal , can play 4 and 5 and some 3 mostly considered a center or pf has outside shot needs the weight room. IU could help get him to NBA

May be looking for starting slot but

Could get many minutes backing Ballo and Malik

Dude from BYU is looking for a new school for his COVID year. 

Played one year at Texas A&M. One at Arkansas. Two at BYU. 

So he will be on his fourth school in five years. 

This is just silly.

I say you get one free transfer, then you have to start sitting out a year. Unfortunately, the NCAA is pretty toothless these days, so even if they tried to bring some sort of order to this craziness -- they'd just get sued!

Academics have to be a nightmare when you transfer that often.

They did and they did. They lost. That is why there are unlimited transfers with immediate eligibility.

The NCAA's/schools' long time argument that the athletes are students first and definitely NOT employees in any fashion is really biting them in the @$$. When they then try to restrict the "student" athletes from doing things other students are allowed to do, they lose. It's that simple.

Imagine playing 5 or 6 years of CBB only to finish with 0 degrees. Yikes
