Around the Big East

Wonder if this kids skill translate up two levels? I recall someone from there transferring up last year and it not working well -- to Rutgers maybe?
Sub 6 foot guard who shoots 15 shots inside the arc, on the surface I’d say it will be a tough transition.

Yeah if you have arguably the worst team/roster of any Power conference this past year and you were looking to seriously upgrade your roster I am not sure a volume scorer from a decent MAAC team is going to do it.

SHU needs some dudes and a lot of them to get back in the mix in the Big East.

I did hear they are in good shape with a once promising high level recruit who went to Bama but slid down a lot of rankings and then redshirted at Bama this year as he was just not physically ready, Naas Cunningham.

Sounds like SHU is going to take a flier on him hoping maybe he pans out.

They are losing Middleton though it seems. That one surprised. Middleton was basically Cunningham as a freshman except Middleton actually played some for Ohio State, whereas Cunningham did not. On paper, I think I'd much rather have a junior Middleton than a redshirt freshman in Cunningham.

At one point that kid was ranked #1 in his class but slid down to 40th.

Jordan Derdack. He started a few games at Rutgers and was a rotation guy. I met his uncle while up in Providence for the NCAAs and his nephew is supposedly transferring again.
 
With Butler and Georgetown both losing in the Crown tonight, Villanova is the last Big East team still playing.

They will face USC in a Crown quaterfinal game on Thursday night at 9:30 pm eastern time.
