Multi-Regional Topics / First-years to watch
July 14, 2023, 12:33:31 PM
This is wildly speculative, of course, but figured it would be interesting to have one place to list first years who could make an impact on the D3 landscape.  Here are some names to watch (with the understanding that folks from the pertinent region will likely have much better guesses than these; this is very New England-heavy at this point).  From this list, I'd say that Scott, Johnson, Henderson, Harris, Fagbemi, Ofcarcik, Dalton, Fletcher, Mosely and Devine are all definitely worth keeping a close eye on ...

Justin Bardauskas - Bowdoin
Jordan Scott - Calvin
Ryan Johnson - Carthage
Tyson Henderson - Christopher Newport
Will Franks - Claremont McKenna
Gavin Carter - Colorado College
Noah Beaudet - Emmanuel
A.J. Harris - Emory
Jalen Reese - Hamilton
Brayden Fagbemi - Johns Hopkins
Elijah Farrington - Mount Union
Jahlil Graham - Mount Union
Jason Ofcarcik - Nichols
Simon Percy - Nichols
DJ Wallace - North Park
Jamarirea Dalton - Oshkosh
Seth Miron - Oshkosh
Xander Fletcher - Oswego
Max Lucey - Platteville
Adrian Mosely - Redlands
PJ Scalisi - RPI
Mason Prey - Stevens Point
Jared Berry - Trinity (CT)
Tristan Davis - Trinity (CT)
Matt Garside - Union
Reid Celestin - Wesleyan
Collin Madson - Whitewater
Aidan Chisolm - Whitewater
Matt Devine - Williams

Given the strangeness of this COVID year, I thought I'd start a topic tracking top-tier players (all-region caliber) who are listed as seniors but who have a year of eligibility remaining.  I imagine some of these types of players will return to their current schools, and some may try to leverage their extra year of eligibility into a graduate opportunity (including, potentially, in D1).  I'm curious if any of them have actually publicized their intentions?  From the northeast corner of the country, there are some really strong players who could prolong their careers if they choose:

Ryan Turell, Yeshiva
Jaecee Martin, St. Joseph's
Marcus Azor, UMD
Sam Peek, Wesleyan
Terion Moss, Maine-Farmington

I think all of those guys might be able to generate some higher-level interest if they pursued it.  Certainly, all have been dominant players at the D3 level (and Martin and Moss were originally D1 recruits before transferring to D3). 

Besides Jaecee Martin, most of St. Joseph's listed seniors (all but Powell I think?) have an extra year remaining, so there is the potential for them all to come back to form an absolute juggernaut next year (they are already pretty darn good this year!). 

Turell will, I think, have the most options -- playing pro ball at a high level abroad, returning to Yeshiva as a grad student, or seeking out a D1 opportunity, which I assume would be abundant for a player of his reputation.

Multi-Regional Topics / 2021 Transfers
April 18, 2021, 07:58:43 PM
Between the extra year of eligibility due to COVID (first and foremost), the recent success of D3 to D1 transfers (now TWO NBA players), and the waiver of the redshirt year for transfers, I imagine we will see far from transfers both from D3 to higher levels as well as within D3 this year.  I figured I'd consolidate all information on transfers as well as guys seeking to transfer (some of which has already been shared on various boards here) into one thread.  What I've seen so far:

Division 3 to Division 1:

Jack Nolan: Wash U to TBD
Collen Gurley: Mount Union to Youngstown State
Fru Che: Amherst to TBD
D'KQuan Davis: Arcadia to TBD (originally Texas State but withdrew his commitment)

Division 3 to Division 3:

Griffin Kornaker: Middlebury to Case Western
Dan Masino: Hobart to Rochester
