Does go to show why the coaches are casting such a wide net, for every grad transfer we lose to a power program, one or two may slip through to the mid/low major levels.

There are so many options beyond simply level of play or ability to go deep in the tournament that go into a transfer's decision. Previous relationships with coaches and current athletes, proximity to home, and the ability to continue a degree in their major to name a few. Simply writing off a kid because he played in the Big10 or ACCbis short sighted and not doing due diligence.

Oh I agree. Sometimes it's a little discouraging to see grad transfers who were mid major role players seemingly all go to P6 schools, but it's nice to see someone who received good minutes at an ACC school go to the OVC.

Yes, it's back home for him, but the Eastern KY HC was Beverly's coach at Hargrave.
