Real good one enters -- and he's an all name team one:

Xzayvier Brown, St. Joe's 6'2" guard.  Two years eligibility left.  17.6 ppg, 5.2 rpg, 4.6 apg.  Shot 42/35/90.  Over two seasons has averaged 15 pts, 4.6 reb, 3.8 ast, shot 44/38/86.

Sources: Oklahoma’s Porter Moser is expected to hire St. Joe’s Associate HC Justin Scott as an assistant. The expectation is that Xzayvier Brown — who entered the transfer portal today — will follow Scott to Norman

Kansas State guard Dug McDaniel is entering the transfer portal. The 5-11 junior averaged 11.4 points, 2.8 rebounds, and 4.9 assists per game this season. Had three games in which he scored 20+ points (24 on Arizona, 22 on BYU, and 20 on Iowa State). Began his career at Michigan.

This is what Evan Miya is putting at the 'valuation' of the players added via the portal, not what has actually been paid.  Iowa pretty much has had a full rebuild with a lot of spots being filled by transfers from Drake.  FWIW, Bennett Stirtz's valuation is off the charts (on On3, he has a valuation North of $2 million).  But there is no way that Iowa paid that much......rumor was their offer to Dix was only $1 million and Iowa doesn't have big NIL.

Personally, I also happen to think that Stirtz is going to show some struggles this upcoming season when he faces Big Ten competition game after game.

I think this year the valuations are probably pretty close. That tells me the three portal guards for Louisville that I would've killed for were probably roughly 1.5m each. Which is on par with what On3 had them at. We need every bit of that 10-12m.

Kansas guard AJ Storr is entering the transfer portal,  has learned. Storr is a former four-star recruit who played one season at St. John’s, one at Wisconsin and then last season at Kansas. Native of Rockford, Illinois. Averaged 6.1PPG this season.

 

Have suitcase; will travel.  Wire Storr.

Assuming Conerway commits this week, a 3&D as your 3rd guard/wing and a big with size and strength who can defend the rim for ~20 mpg need to be the biggest priorities.

Conerway

Wilkerson

3 and D

DeVries

Bailey

Would make an incredible and efficient offense to watch. Do still need to add some levels of size and athleticism however.

Hopefully, some of them will have multiple years of eligibility left. I know there is a need to win immediately but we also don't want a total rebuild again next year. I think maybe another 4 players from the transfer portal and a couple more freshmen will be what it ends up being. 

It's nice seeing some of the names being mentioned now do have multiple years left.

Overton and the kid from North Florida visiting today as that 3rd wing spot make sense as they have both have multiple years of eligibility left. The JUCO kid is intriguing to me although I'm not sure I'd be totally confident with him in that first big off the bench role. 

But the roster is coming together and Wilkerson and DeVries are two players who you can absolutely build a successful team around.

A.J. Storr may drive Chris Beard to drink....more.

Every coach thinks they’re the guy who can pull it all together for a kid.

I know nothing at all about this kid's overall game but wonder if there will be any IU interest with Drew Adams now on board.

Cincinnati guard Daniel Skillings Jr. plans to enter the transfer, he tells @TheAthleticCBB He averaged of 9.3 points, 3.8 rebounds and 1.4 assists per game Skillings Jr. is a former top 100 recruit

The 6-6 guard with a 7-2 wingspan lead the Bearcats in points, rebounds, and blocks as a sophomore last season — earning All-Big 12 Honorable Mention honors.

Or Someone who missed on a target upped the ante.  LOL.  I guess we will find out soon.  Truly wild wild west behavior

Yep, I don't think it's a coincidence it happened after Wilkerson's commitment. I think he'll end up at UK.

Ironic... would that be considered "tampering"? Are schools allowed to contact players signed to another school? Or is it only "tampering" when UK says it is? What a load of horse manure...

Your question incorrectly assumes there are enforced rules.
