    So if he is walk on where does that put us scholarship wise? I thought people were saying the North Dakota transfer was going to pick X also. Are we going to have more transfers than returning players?

    He's walking on, but also a traditional transfer, so he won't be eligible until next year. He put up pretty decent numbers when he actually played significant minutes.

    I actually know a guy from the same hometown from him in Minnesota, just looked it up, Chaska, texting him right now to see if he knew him, and if he might know anything about it. Worst case scenario, I think the sentiment is right that he fully knows what he's walking into. Think about how bad that would look on X's part if they just completely lied to the guy, it would make recruits think twice before committing here you know?

    Minnesota just had a player transfer out, makes the Crandall sweepstakes much more interesting. Gopher fans think it’s a done deal

    Matz Stockman is a center leaving Minne after transferring from Louisville

    What if we got Stockman and Crandall?

    Someone let me know when the roster is set. Agree with others. This is getting exhausting.

    Grad transfers can only go to a school that offers a graduate program their school does not offer. What in the world does Xavier offer as a Masters program that these other schools don't? Or does Xavier specifically have a weird program the kids can select and then change once they get here? Is that even allowed? Who monitors that? Could a grad transfer select the Graduate Level Welding Program to make the move and then change the program once enrolled to an MBA? It seems like there are so many moves and I can't believe that all of these transfers are to programs that don't exist at the current school. I could be wrong, though. It's like free agency once you complete your first contract.

    Good point. Really, what graduate program that X offers that other big universities do not offer?

    The grad transfer rule is bullshit. These kids can pick some obscure program that I am sure each school has set up and then once they get here change their major again. No one monitors it.

    My guess is they told him "Hey. We can't promise you a scholarship, but any year you're here where we don't use all 13 you will be getting one." Which is almost all the time.
