Jamison Lynam on there twice. (Fun fact: he's the grandson of former NBA coach Jim Lynam.) Also, Shane Crissman from East Stroudsberg (D2) to UMW (D3).

Another update. Octavio Alexander is heading to Jarvis Christian University, an NAIA program.

One more! Matthew Cadogan has added NYU hoops to his X bio. Seems to me that is a sign. No official commitment/statement though.

A pretty good pick-up for NYU. I am still waiting to see where teammate Alex Zakheim ends up...

Calvin snags a second D2 transfer.
Matthew Elderkin, 6-6 wing, from Grand Valley State University to Calvin with three years of eligibility.

Buffalo coach Halcovage probably got a lot of scouting info from his former HC at Babson (Brennan) and his former Villanova coaching friend and current Babson AC (Flannery) who have watched John for 2 years in the NEWMAC.
I think he'll get plenty of chances to prove he belongs at the D1 level. Really tough for Buffalo to recruit and hold onto talent in the portal age.

I realize Shay John didn't put up huge stats, but he just LOOKS like a D1 athlete so I imagine it's a bet on his upside with the thought that with a lot of coaching the skills will start to catch up to the size and athleticism.

So far, eight D3 to D1 transfers with likely at least a few more to come. The guys still on the board who I expect would make the biggest potential impact in D1, or would be locks for the top two pre-season D3 all-American squads if they return: Sam Grieger, Dorion Glogovac, and Jevon Yarbrough. As of now, Kye Robinson, Myles Barnette, Mason Funk, and Soren Richardson are the only returning all-Americans, so all are locks for either first or second team pre-season all-American next year (Robinson of course is a lock for first-team).

Not really relevant at the moment, but we do try to field AA teams that can actually take the court together. A lot of the returning guys on your list are guards. We could probably put Richardson in the four spot, but there will be a big guy on there somewhere.

Gotcha Ryan. The returning crew of centers looks pretty thin next year. Front-court guys who seem like all-American contenders (unless they transfer up!): Remijo Wani, Elijah Kinney, Babacar Pouye, Jack Plesser, Elijah Farrington and all-name team member Carvin Fish. But only a few from that group are true bigs I think? I guess it makes sense that big guys who can really play will attract the most D1 attention ...

Don't forget Ethan Fauss. He's not a traditional post, but he's plenty big enough. It was way guard heavy down south, so he didn't make all region, but he's a big contender for that spot, too! Jay Randall, as well, coming off the national title.

nescac1 · **Today** at 11:18:23 AM

Yeah I was just looking at all region selections, those guys are good inclusions. And it's not even clear that Fauss is going to be Emory's best big next year, Awasum seems like a guy who really broke through in the tourney and has tons of upside going forward to expand his game. Of course it helps to have two all-American guards getting all the attention and Emory won't have that next year!

Randall is really tough, he reminds me of those quick, undersized bigs who are nightmare matchups for most teams that Virginia Wesleyan used to have during their title runs. The D2 transfer Mary Washington added looks like a legit shooter and with all they have back, they could be utterly dominant next season. They certainly deserve two pre-season all-Americans.
