Sterling Smith Sr Transfer

[Gundo]

Smith is a 5th year transfer from Coppin State and was all league in the MEAC and was born in Sacramento, lives in Chico,CA.  He is 6'4 200 SG. His visits are Rutgers, Wake Forrest, Louisville and Pittsburgh...so far. We could use a shooter with California roots. 

He is looking for a winning program that needs a shooter. Smith averaged a team-best 13.9 points in 31 games…He was also second on the team in rebounding (4.9)…Smith was among the conference leaders in field-goal percentage (46.8 %) and three-point shooting (41.8%).

He got an offer today from Pitt, headed to Louisville tomorrow. Prior to the east coast swing only Neveda and UNM had offered him a spot. Not sure if we looked at him? Orginally from Nor Cal, 40% from 3.

Im sure our Staff know what they are doing. It has been pretty quiet , I wonder if they have a transfer PG tucked away that we don't know about.

It has been pretty quiet. I haven't seen SDSU linked to anyone.

Its been eerily quiet on the transfer front.

I would guess the staff is content with Kell and Shrigley at our 2 guards... Even Winston played that roll during his sophomore season.

Things should start to rekindle as the April 26 th date passes and the final HS pick their schools . for the Aztecs primary is getting Winston back . then Narain . Also confirming the idea with the coaches that JH can handle the PG position.

Believe the only transfer that has visited is M. Tollefsen PF/SF, grad transfer from SAN FRAN .

Interesting from Aztec fans , some want a PG , others SG , others the grad transfer . others any scorer . Some want grad transfer others any transfer .

We all consider SDSU a great place to transfer to but the news is out there . If you do not play D. no matter points you may score you are not getting much PT .

So the scorer may need to come from improved play from numerous returning players. Would not expect a major splash .from a new comer . other then JH at PG .

Time to end this thread as well. Adam Smith too, at GA Tech.
