Transfer marketModerators: PonyPride, SmooPower Transfer marketSo it's well known SMU is in the market for a transfer big so let's have a thread to discuss potential targets.
I'll start with Chase Jeter a 6'10 player from duke. He had an injury this year that derailed his season. Was a top 100 recruit out of high school. His stats aren't impressive but he was getting minutes making me think he was in the plans as a role player.
Re: Transfer marketWould LOVE to get Chase Jeter. He is from vegas and pretty sure he said he wants to go somewhere closer to home, but we should contact him. I will add to this.

Re: Transfer market
Yes, he did mention being closer to home. SMU is a lot closer than Duke, if you want to look at that statement optimistically. http://www.goduke.com/ViewArticle.dbml? ... EM_ID=4200
Re: Transfer marketNevada seems to be the major favorite to land Jeter. But maybe Semi met him on his recruiting trip and can make a sales pitch for us.
Re: Transfer marketDoes anyone know the rules regarding 'recruiting' transfers? Does a school have to wait until someone announces that they are transferring to be in contact? Can a school be in contact or does can the student contact them only?
Re: Transfer marketWe have 0% chance of landing Porter. He's gunna go join his dad at Mizzou and then be off to the NBA after a year. Plus won't win any sort of championship.
Re: Transfer market
He also has a 6'10" younger brother that is looking to re-classify to this year as I recall. He is also highly rated.
Re: Transfer market
Yeah, I think he already has a top 4 and is either going to end up at Mizzou with his dad (most likely) or at OU with Trae Young. Of course either would be a great get, but we have no chance and aren't trying. They are a package deal.
Re: Transfer marketKameron Rooks from Cal (7 footer) is transferring and immediately eligible. Great size but hasn't put up much in terms of number (or minutes) in his time at Cal. Son of the late Sean Rooks - not sure if George Lynch ever played with Rooks or not, may know the family if we have any interest.
Re: Transfer marketNot sure, but Lynch and Rooks almost played together with the Lakers. However at the same time LA brought Sean onboard they traded George to Vancouver. This would have been mid-90's.
Re: Transfer market
If you're playing by the rules, then you are NOT supposed to solicit a transfer, The player has to make the initial contact, and has to inform his original school that he's doing it. If a player contacts another school without telling his original school, then the coach at the second school MUST inform the original school that he's been contacted by the player. After initial contact, that specific school can stay in touch with the player, but schools the player hasn't contacted cant, first contact must be made by the player. Another school cannot give a player a scholarship until he is released from his original school. Thats the rules. The reality is that only a minority of transfers follow the rule book. Most have people behind the scenes, relatives, high school or AAU coaches, agents, etc. that have stayed in touch with college coaches that originally recruited them, and the behind the scenes people will have conversations with recruiters that fall outside the guidelines. It's called tampering, and it's a violation, but it's almost impossible to enforce. You have to be very blatant to get caught.
Re: Transfer marketThere is zero question in my mind that Semi is being CONSTANTLY contacted (or his people in his inner circle are being contacted) by other programs for him to transfer there as a grad transfer. Not saying I think he'll go that route (I don't - I think he enters draft or comes back), but I'm quite certain he's being recruited plenty, even though that is against the rules.
Re: Transfer market
Why would you think so? Because he's a good player? I don't think anyone thinks that Semi would do anything outside of returning or declaring. I think any program who had someone in charge with a brain in their head wouldn't waste their time.
