Technically, it isn't the school paying him that. Technically...

[Jackson96]

Ha yes. Technically that is true.

RJ now out until at least late December with some kind of shin injury.

RJ now out until at least late December with some kind of shin injury.

He's only played in 1 game this year. On another note, there's an issue with Gapare at Georgia Tech but no details so far.

Gapare has missed the previous two games due to an undefined issue, and it is unknown if he will take on Duke on Saturday.

Big game from Sean East again today powered Mizzou over Wichita St. Leading scorer with 22, 3 of 4 on 3s, 7 of 8 FTs, 9 assists, 3 steals. Mizzou led all the way, but Wichita cut the lead to 2 with 3 minutes left. Sean assisted on a 3, then hit one himself and made 4 straight FTs to put the game away.

TJ Weeks scored 13 points w/8 boards today but 1-7 Rider lost to Fairfield 88-81.

He starts and is averaging g 6.9 points and 6 rebounds per game.

^^That was a kid I hated to see go. Sean was a very talented kid

Here is some info on other noteworthy transfers from the last few years. I left out Mitchell, Luis, Gapare and Weeks as they have been covered recently. Stats are per game and rounded:

Tre Wood - George Mason - 7 minutes, 1 point
Noah - Rutgers - 27 minutes, 8 points, 2.4 assists, 33% from 3
Sy Chatman - Buffalo - 32 minutes, 16 points, 6 boards, over a block per game
Preston Santos - SNHU (yes, they have a BB team) - 15 minutes, 5 points, 4 rebounds
Wildens Leveque - Texas A&M - 11 minutes, 3 points, 4 rebounds
Javohn Garcia - McNeese State - 27 minutes, 9 points, 4 rebounds, 39% from 3
Ronnie DeGray - Wichita State - waiver has not been granted
Dyondre Dominguez - Arkansas State - 29 minutes, 13 points, 9 rebounds
Cairo McCrory - stopped playing BB after leaving UMass. I think it was injury related.

Gapare got 20 today for Ga Tech vs PennSt

TJ had 9 points and 8 boards to help Ryder improve to 3-8 by beating Delaware (8-4) 88-85 in OT.

I saw that Seton Hall improved to 8-4 with a win over Uconn last night, which made me look at Seton Hall's schedule. They just beat Missouri the other day. Sean East went for 16/6 in 36 minutes. In today's day and age he never would have played his whole career here anyway, but the fact he was only here for 1 year is one of the biggest what if's in the last 10 years (if not longer) for Umass basketball. He's averaging 17.1 PPG for an SEC team. Quite impressive.

^ I think it's been discussed before, but I'm pretty sure you can lay that one on Tony Bergeron. He brought in Noah, one of his Woodstock guys, as a transfer and Sean figured his playing time was going to go way down.

[natwam2547]

For sure - And as much as we enjoyed Noah's time here, it didn't end well and East ended up having the higher ceiling.

Sean was told to pack his bags, wasn’t his choice to leave.

I blame that on McCall. It was his program and didn't see what he had in Sean. He's better off now anyway, good for him. Kid is a player
