Noah Dickerson C/PF would have been very good add on for the Aztecs , was a former Florida commit . PAC schools have done a very good job of recruiting for 2015 . 2016 off to a good start for them also . So maybe unless the " mystery transfer " the Aztecs are looking at is still out there this Transfer thread could be over and out .

As long as we have a spot available on the roster & as long as there are over 50+ transfers still on the market I don't see any reason to close it down.
A lot of movement could still happen between today & September.

If there are any good players left that want to be certain of having a great chance of playing in MM they should make a visit to see what is happening in SD.

So at most we have 1 scholarship for 2015 , if Narain decides on 2016 rather then 2015 . If he wants 2015 then we have zero unless Max walks on? Any one have a list of those "valued transfers " remaining out there, if we do add another regular transfer, then that also means one less for 2016 goes from 9 to 10 scholarships, and some would suggest we stop at 11 or 12 in case a transfer pops up. So it really should be a "starter" quality or hold off for 2016 .

So it really should be a "starter" quality or hold off for 2016 . You don't know who will and won't turn into a "starter"; anyone can. Did you think AQ was going to start? Did you think DA wouldn't at some point in his career?
Here's a list of the transfers: insider.espn.go.com/blog/jeff-goodman/insider/post/_/id/4899/top-10-transfers-and-complete-transfer-list
I doubt we add anyone but wouldn't be surprised either. They may see a 6'11 or 7'0 project out there who they think might be a good addition. Who knows.
Rosters rarely stay as projected. There's usually 1 or more players who leave unexpectedly, so I wouldn't get hung up on the #'s yet.
Long time between now & June 2016.

Former Rutgers and Florida guard Eli Carter will visit UNLV this weekend according to Jon Rothstein and Jeff Goodman.
Carter is 6-foot-2 guard that has one year of eligibility of remaining and could play right away for Dave Rice in 2015-16. Last year in Gainsville, Carter started 17 games and averaged 8.8 points per game on 36.2 percent shooting.

Fish was on the radio and said that they now plan on rolling that last scholarship over to next year.

would be interesting to find out if you can give a player a semester rather then a full semester scholarship if they start the year with your school ? Then pull it if there is a mid season transfer ?
So recap for 2015 Excellent news Winston and Malik decide to come back to SDSU with others . Great news Gain freshman B. jones , JH and red shirt freshman Zylan . Lose Zabo as PG option for 2015 gain Max for 2016. 2016 will me a major reloading to replace the complete 3 Front Line starters and C/5 reserve . So as of today 8 scholarships signed for 2016. Have Verbal from Narain . So maybe use 2 or 3 scholarships if we want to have 1 or 2 open for transfers. Need at least another 5 or 4 or two , and player that can score at the 3 or 2 position . More important quality then quantity .

Narain has said he may have enough credits to graduate from high school this summer and reclassify as an incoming college freshman, thus enrolling at SDSU for the fall semester with the intention of redshirting. He has said he won’t make a decision until August. BTW MJ Cage has also said he would announce at the end of the Summer before his senior year. Looking forward to August 2015!!!

This is CRAZY 749 MBB transfers and counting for 2015: D1 = 266 (35.5%), D2 = 162 (21.7%), D3 = 5, NAIA = 28, CIS = 3, JUCO = 117 (15.7%), Unaccounted = 168 (22.5%)

It is a nice method to balance power (school/player) but is also a device that unbalances power more (school/school).

Bottom line for all the transfers we lost Zabo , a guard that could have played either guard position in 2015 Added Max 6'8" as a red shirt transfer for 2016 with three years to play. BJ did screw up chances for other transfers .
For 2015 , Chol could be our only eligible scholarship transfer player . Building the team with quality HS players.

One # that also stands out is 168+ "unknown/unsigned". This is the information age where every school makes announcements about signings (we went public/national with a walk-on), so to see so many who haven't landed is really interesting. Many of them were 3-star recruits out of HS (e.g. Tanner Lancona, Zabo until last week, etc.).
It's also why so many players do not want to RS their FR year. Gotta save it in case they transfer, at least giving them the option to go straight to D1 & not lose another year.
It will be very interesting if the NCAA does what most propose, and that's require senior-transfers to sit a year as well. I'd guess that # would go down considerably.
As Bill points out, kids have options but they're also more impatient. It also doesn't do many of the mid-majors or lesser power conference teams any favors as their better guys will bail for a better chance to win. Thus setting the program back further.

Interesting they are trying to penalize grad transfers - athletes that actually graduate . Do they require regular transfers to have at least a 2.5 GPA ?
For the most part what good does it do to keep a guy that is not happy with their situation at a school ?

For the most part what good does it do to keep a guy that is not happy with their situation at a school ? I don't think most of the grad guys are transferring because their "not happy with their situation at a school". I think the majority are happy, but just shopping themselves for a BETTER opportunity and appreciate (& even thrive on) the "free agency" process. Being courted & having the chance to pick & choose whether you want to be THE man, or go to THE team is pretty attractive, even to a happy guy.
If they were truly unhappy I'd have expected them to transfer before their final year. And if they're truly unhappy they can still transfer - they'll just have to attend the school for 2 years (vs. 1 - which would be required to complete most grad degrees anyway), or they could still transfer down a division.
In theory, the whole grad transfer situation was created so when kids graduate & their current school doesn't offer graduate courses they're interested in, they can transfer to a school which DOES have that graduate degree. To transfer the new school must offer grad course of study their current school doesn't offer. Don't think that's being applied very well right now.
Hardly anyone is actually transferring as a grad student & finishing. So if the original intent is not being followed why not change it so it does, meaning forcing them to decide if they truly WANT to pursue grad school somewhere else?
The debate would be do they want to RS their senior year? And schools will need to debate whether they want to offer 2 years of school for 1 year of ball?
