Verbalcommits.com reports that Nick Rogers is transferring to IUPUI (Indiana University-Purdue University Indianapolis).

He is going back home. I hope it is a good fit and he has success.

PUIUI is a good opportunity. Wish him the best.

Rogers will have some competition for pt at IUPUI. Kent State's starting point guard Kellon Thomas has been granted his transfer request and will be immediately eligible next season as a graduate transfer

The transfer rules will require Rogers to sit out next season. Transfers can only play right away if they are graduate transfers or if they get a waiver for special circumstances.

If the think grad transfers are a bad thing read the cleveland.com link on Kellen Thomas

So Kent also has three players leaving their program.

Well, at least with a coach named "Send-em-off", they are up front about it.

Weird-one story lists three end-of-benchers and states Thomas is returning, other says he's leaving. A "deep" position just got shallow. And Jimmie Hall is a sophomore? Or is this a different Jimmie Hall?
