They took a sit out big already in Williams

There's the mention of 5* transfer Royce White from 5 years ago I was waiting for. Knew it would come.
What no mention of the fact we landed arguably the best transfer in the country last year in BDJ? Deonte Burton was a Top 50 recruit he chose ISU less than a year ago when transferring. What explanation are you looking for? We became known as transfer U for a reason. Why you are having a hard time understanding the fact that we have been landing stud transfers the past five years is beyond me. Again though...great insight!

Memphis is in a tournament with Iowa, Virginia & Providence in the future. That's why those 3 are restricted. And I'm guessing that Memphis plays Tennesee in the future as well.
BDJ wasn't the best transfer in the country last year. He was wanted by pretty much nobody.
Argue all you want about whether or not each individual on this list is "Blue-Chip". However, I challenge you to name a team who has consistently recruited high-level transfers over the past five years at the same rate as ISU. Show me a team with a better list than this. I didn't even name them all.
Scott Christopherson
Chris Allen
Korie Lucious
Royce White
Chris Babb
Deandre Kane
Deonte Burton
Will Clyburn
Bryce Dejean-Jones
Jameel McKay
Proof is in the puddin, folks. Players see this and it is why we get a look from most quality transfers.

We landed Royce because he didn't want to get on a plane to go to Kentucky. I don't recall that anyone seriously wanted BDJ either.
We have had great luck with transfers, but simply haven't gotten any of the highly sought after transfers recently. Also, transfer recruiting 5 years ago was far less competitive. Apples and oranges, IMO.
Why are you quoting me? I was commenting on 1 player only. BDJ. He wasn't a highly sought after transfer. Nobody wanted him.

Conditions on Austin Nichols' release per source: No AAC school. Nobody on Memphis schedule. And four to-be-determined schools.
Meh...from my recollection he was quick to pick ISU, and ISU was quick to reach out. Not a lot of teams had a chance to even show interest.
I know he was recruited out of Juco, but was he recruited heavily when he transferred? I honestly can't remember, but I don't seem to recall any competition after he decided to transfer.
Either way, no one we've taken was had the ability to go to any school they want to like Nichols will.
Nobody wanted him. He was cancer and everyone out West knew it. We saw at ISU why nobody wanted him.
