Starting five X players who’ve transferred out

[IM4X]

Most X players who’ve transferred out were likely never going to be one of the stars on the team if they had stuck around. Some (like Kyky and CJ) may have been, but weren’t getting lots of minutes. There were even some who were starters on the team, yet left for some other reason than a lack of playing time. If you had to make a team out of players who transferred out, what should that team look like?

Which transfers would be in your starting 5 and who would be first two off the bench

Problem I’m having is finding any forwards worth a damn that I can remember.....maybe others can reach back into their memory banks better than I could:

Dez
Lyons
Kyky
Makinde London
Dontarius James

Off the bench:

CJ
J Martin I guess but hated his attitude

Gonna get outrebounded by a ton but gonna put on a show on offense

Starting 5:

1. Larry Austin Jr.
2. Lyons
3. Dez
4. Justin Martin
5. Boubacar Coly (not many great big guy transfers)

Bench
6. David Young
7. CJ Wilcher
8. Makinde London
9. Kyky
10. Johnny Wolf
11. Jay Canty

I am probbaly cheating a little bit with putting Martin at the 4. If I had to go bigger I would put Makinde there.

Also I dont think D. Finn counts as a transfer, he played 4 years at X then obviously had his issues and never played anywhere else again.

Finn is a great example of someone who could have been special had he not had his off court troubles.

Finn didn't transfer. Just got kicked off the team near the end of his senior season.

True...DWest is right though, i thought for some reason Finn had only played 3 years. Shows where my memory is....anyways, switched it out for Justin Martin, though his attitude was crap

That’s right. Technically he did not make it on another team after being dismissed by X... correct? That would disqualify him.

Does Lloyd Price count? I think he played at a D2 school for a while after getting bounced from X. As I recall, Churchill Odia actually ended up being pretty solid at Oregon.

If Price counts he definitely makes my starting 5. I couldn't really remember or find online any transfers out prior to like 2001.
