Top Transfers: Immediately Eligible

    Keep an eye on these 20 transfers next season.

    Hopefully, you’ve managed to stay up to speed with the many college basketball players who will be transferring this spring, but who are the top names that are eligible to immediately play once the 2020-21 season officially tips off?

    I’ve got you covered…

    Top Transfers: Immediately Eligible

    1) Carlik Jones, 6-1, 180, G, RS Jr., Radford
    Stats: 20.0 ppg, 5.5 apg, 5.0 rpg
    Scout’s take: “He’s a true three-level scorer with an elite basketball IQ. Can play on or off the ball. He has a great change of speed and hesitation. He wants the ball in big moments and has made several game-winners in his career. He relishes being “The Guy.”
    ● COMMITTED TO LOUISVILLE

    2) Matt Haarms, 7-3, 250, C, Grad, Purdue
    Stats: 8.6 ppg, 4.6 rpg, 2.0 bpg
    Scout’s take: “He can really run the floor and protect the rim. He plays with energy and is a good shooter to the 3-point line, but needs to shoot the 3 at a higher percentage. He is an average rebounder and is also a good passer.”
    ● COMMITTED TO BYU

    3) Cartier Diarra, 6-4, 185, G, Grad, Kansas State
    Stats: 13.3 ppg, 6.4 rpg
    Scout’s take: “Really has the ability to create offense, but can get out of control at times. High-level athlete and change of pace speed. Takes and makes tough shots. At times, can be reckless. Thought he was much better as a sophomore because of who he was surrounded with.”
    ● COMMITTED TO VIRGINIA TECH

    4) D.J. Carton, 6-2, 190, PG, Fr., Ohio State
    Stats: 10.4 ppg
    Scout’s take: “Scoring guard with elite athleticism. Needs to improve decision-making, game-management skills to become point guard. Extremely hard to stop when he is on his left hand with space to get going downhill. Tons of potential and upside.”
    ● COMMITTED TO MARQUETTE

    5) Dimencio Vaughn, 6-5, 220, SG, Grad, Rider
    Stats: 14.8 ppg, 6.6 rpg, 39% 3-pointers
    Scout’s take: “He can score inside and out. He’s a strong, athletic wing who is a MF’er. He’ll dunk on you at the rim, and his shot has gotten much better. He’s still learning to be a 3-man.”
    COMMITTED TO OLE MISS

    6) Terrell Brown, 6-1, 175, G, Grad, Seattle
    Stats: 20.7 ppg, 6.2 rpg, 4.9 apg
    Scout’s take: “Physical, driving guard who is fearless and has a high-major body. He’s a high-major defender, but his weakness is his ability to shoot it from deep.”
    COMMITTED TO ARIZONA

    7) Seth Towns, 6-7, 215, SF, Sr., Harvard
    Stats: Did not play the last two years due to knee injury; 16.0 ppg, 5.7 rpg (2017-18)
    Scout’s take: “Smooth, skilled combo-forward. Elite shooter — off catch, jab, bounce. Excellent ball-handler for a player his size. Creates offense for himself and others. An underrated passer, especially out of the pick and roll. Just an average athlete, but savvy in his ability to drive it and get by guys. The key will be rust since he’s coming off missing the past two seasons with a knee injury.”
    ● COMMITTED TO OHIO STATE

    8) Bryce Aiken, 6-0, 175, PG, Sr., Harvard
    Stats: 16.7 ppg (7 games)
    Scout’s take: “Dynamic scoring and playmaking guard. Uniquely gifted in his ability to create offense. Elite ball-skills and scoring package around the rim. High percentage shooter with limitless range — off bounce or catch. Extremely confident. Improved defender, especially on the ball. Undersized but makes up for it with his effort and toughness.”
    ● COMMITTED TO SETON HALL

    9) Johnny Juzang, 6-6, 215, SG, Fr., Kentucky (HAS RECEIVED WAIVER TO PLAY THIS SEASON)
    Stats: 2.9 ppg
    Scout’s take: “He has good size and can shoot it, but didn’t get much run at Kentucky. He can definitely help a high-major program, but he’s probably more of a specialist as a shooter.”
    ● COMMITTED TO UCLA

    10) Jordan Bruner, 6-9, 205, PF, Sr., Yale
    Stats: 10.9 ppg, 9.2 rpg, 3.8 apg
    Scout’s take: “His greatest attribute is his skill. Excellent feel for his size. That, plus his athleticism makes him a very tough matchup. Can float around at times.”
    ● COMMITTED TO ALABAMA

    11) Marcus Santos-Silva, 6-7, 250, PF, Grad, VCU
    Stats: 12.8 ppg, 8.9 rpg
    Scout’s take: “Below the rim guy, but carves out a lot of space. Strong lower body and can seal and duck-in deep. He actually moves pretty well laterally and can hedge ball screens, and do things defensively he doesn’t get credit for. Non-shooter and a poor FT shooter. One-hand dominant inside and struggles to score over length. Has to play the 5 and doesn’t give a ton of rim protection.”
    ● COMMITTED TO TEXAS TECH

    12) Romello White, 6-8, 250, PF, Grad, Arizona State
    Stats: 10.2 ppg, 8.8 rpg
    Scout’s take:
    “He’s a guy who can rebound at a high level, and plays with a level of toughness. Not a big-time scorer, but can really get after it on the glass.”
    ● COMMITTED TO OLE MISS

    13) Justin Smith, 6-7, 230, F, Grad, Indiana
    Stats: 10.4 ppg, 5.2 rpg
    Scout’s take: “He’s an athletic forward who can defend, but isn’t much of a threat – especially shooting the ball from the perimeter.”
    ● COMMITTED TO ARKANSAS

    14) Terrell Gomez, 5-8, 165, G, Grad, Cal State Northridge
    Stats: 19.8 ppg
    Scout’s take: “He has unlimited range, doesn’t hunt shots and plays with toughness and confidence. He’s not a primary ball handler, but can initiate offense with him and then run him off screens. Doesn’t get rattled.”
    ● COMMITTED TO SAN DIEGO STATE

    15) Jalen Tate, 6-6, 195, G, Grad, Northern Kentucky
    Stats: 13.9 ppg, 5.4 rpg, 3.6 apg
    Scout’s take: “He is a game-changer. With his size as a guard, he’s a tough matchup. Very good at getting to the rim, and in the post. Defensively, he can disrupt your offense with his length ands size. Very good rebounder. Not a great 3-point shooter.”
    ● COMMITTED TO ARKANSAS

    16) Ray Salnave, 6-3, 205, G, RS Jr., Monmouth
    Stats: 14.5 ppg
    Scout’s take: “Very good offensive player. Shoots the 3 and can beat you off the bounce. Strong and very hard to guard. Very good on the line and a big-time shot maker at the end of games. Good on-ball defender who needs more focus off the ball on D, and needs to get in better shape.”
    ● COMMITTED TO DEPAUL

    17) Kevin Marfo, 6-8, 245, PF, RS Jr., Quinnipiac
    Stats: 10.2 ppg, 13.3 rpg
    Scout’s take: “He’s a physical, hard-playing center and one of the top rebounders in the country, especially on the offensive glass. Will help any team that needs a physical presence around the rim. Undersized for a high-major, but will compete. Scores on putbacks and drop-offs. Not great [with] back to basket.”
    ● COMMITTED TO TEXAS A&M

    18) Mike Smith, 5-11, 185, PG, Sr., Columbia
    Stats: 22.8 ppg, 4.1 rpg, 4.5 apg
    Scout’s take: “High-level scoring point, scores off every action. Will have to guard better at the next destination to be really successful.”
    ● COMMITTED TO MICHIGAN

    19) Rapolas Ivanauskas, 6-10, 230, PF, Grad, Colgate
    Stats: 13.1 ppg, 7.6 rpg
    Scout’s take:Can play the four or the five. Can pick and pop, pick and roll, capable 3-point shooter who is very aggressive in the post and can score over either shoulder and either block, but he’s best when his isolated on the right block. Will back you down and usually it’s not coming back out.”
    ● COMMITTED TO CINCINNATI

    20) Davion Mintz, 6-3, 185, G, Grad, Creighton
    Stats: DNP – 9.7 ppg in 2018-19
    Scout’s take: “Strong and athletic combo guard that can score and facilitate. Can make 3’s or get all the way to the rim. Probably at his best in the open court. Has the ability to be a Solod defender.”
    ● COMMITTED TO KENTUCKY

    21) E.J. Anosike, 6-6, 245, F, RS Jr., Sacred Heart
    Stats: 15.7 ppg, 11.6 rpg
    Scout’s take: “High character, tremendous motor and will rebound the ball at a high level on both ends in any league. He does all the dirty work. While I don’t think he can be your best player, I do believe he can be a starter on a Top 25 team.”
    ● COMMITTED TO TENNESSEE

    22) Brandon Johnson, 6-8, 200, F, Jr., Western Michigan
    Stats: 15.4 ppg, 8.1 rpg
    Scout’s take: “Inside/out guy who has a motor. Can defend BCS size at the four. Shoots 3’s and can score in the post. Is a competitor. Can definitely help a high-major team and carve out a role on a good team.”
    ● COMMITTED TO MINNESOTA

    23) Amauri Hardy, 6-2, 190, SG, Jr., UNLV
    Stats: 14.5 ppg
    Scout’s take: “Dynamic ball-in-hand guard. Outstanding finisher at the rim and very capable from 3. He can definitely play at the high-major level.”
    ● COMMITTED TO OREGON

    24) Vance Jackson, 6-9, 229, F, Grad, New Mexico
    Stats: 11.1 ppg, 5.3 rpg
    Scout’s take: “He’s an extremely versatile forward that can really stretch the floor. His ability to shoot the 3 at a high level makes him dangerous. He’s can play multiple positions.”
    COMMITTED TO ARKANSAS

    25) Rich Kelly, 6-1, 175, PG, Jr., Quinnipiac
    Stats: 16.7 ppg, 4.5 apg
    Scout’s take: “High-IQ point guard with great vision and deep range. Really good playing off ball screens.”
    COMMITTED TO BOSTON COLLEGE

    26) Isaiah White, 6-7, 205, G, RS Jr., Utah Valley
    Stats: 14.5 ppg, 8.4 rpg
    Scout’s take: “Athletic, tough, and really competes. Although an inconsistent shooter, he scores by running the floor, direct drives and offensive rebounding.”
    ● COMMITTED TO USC

    [RELATED: Jeff Goodman’s Postseason Awards and All-Americans for the 2019-20 Season]

    27) Darius Perry, 6-2, 195, PG, Jr., Louisville
    Stats: 5.2 ppg, 2.5 apg
    Scout’s take: “Good quickness, doesn’t play vertically, but has speed. Better shooter than people realize. More of a 2 than a 1, goes through stretches where he makes poor decisions with the ball — especially against pressure. Would be best in an up-and-down situation. Can be a double-figure scorer in the right high-major situation if he plays a lot and is allowed to rip it on both ends.”
    ● COMMITTED TO UCF

    28) Patrick Tape, 6-10, 230, PF, Sr., Columbia
    Stats: 11.3 ppg, 5.9 rpg (2018-19)
    Scout’s take: “Strong, physical, aggressive post. Scores most of his points around the basket: post-ups, drop-offs, rolling to rim. Has significantly improved his feel & touch around the basket in his three years [with] jump hooks. Not much of a perimeter shooting presence, but can handle the ball well enough to facilitate offense. Protects the rim on defensive end. Ideal 5-man for a team that needs someone who is tough, strong, and plays a role well.”
    ● COMMITTED TO DUKE

    29) Drew Buggs, 6-3, 195, G, Grad, Hawaii
    Stats: 9.4 ppg, 5.4 apg, 4.5 rpg
    Scout’s take: “The consummate competitor and leader. Really understands his abilities and plays to them. His greatest strength is his ability to be a floor general and set his teammates up. Plays with great pace and rhythm, great court vision and ability to pass. Weakness is his shooting ability.”
    COMMITTED TO MISSOURI

    30) Charles Minlend, 6-4, 210, G, RS Jr., San Francisco
    Stats: 14.4 ppg
    Scout’s take: “He’s a scorer, a high volume guy who needs to work on being more consistent with his shot. When he’s willing to facilitate, he adds a dimension to his game.”
    ● COMMITTED TO LOUISVILLE

    31) Aaron Cook, 6-2, 185, G, Grad, Southern Illinois
    Stats: 15.0 ppg – 6 games
    Scout’s take: “Really good on-ball defender, basketball IQ is just OK. More of a scoring guard than a point guard. Good first step, good athlete who needs to become a better perimeter shooter.”
    ● COMMITTED TO GONZAGA

    32) Jalen Johnson, 6-7, 205, F, Grad, Louisiana Lafayette
    Stats: 15.5 ppg, 6.6 rpg
    Scout’s take: “Really good rebounder, active and was productive. I’m not sure why it didn’t work at Saint Louis, but he can be a solid player at the high-major level. Versatile forward.”
    ● COMMITTED TO MISSISSIPPI STATE

    33) Kobe Webster, 6-0, 160, PG, Jr., Western Illinois
    Stats: 17.1 ppg, 3.6 apg
    Scout’s take: “He’s gotten better each year, and has the ultimate green light. Scores at all three levels. Prefers to play off the bounce to pull-ups. Bad-shot taker, and bad-shot maker. Really good in ball-screen actions and in transition. Played hard and with a purpose.”
    ● COMMITTED TO NEBRASKA

    34) Tahj Eaddy, 6-2, 165, G, RS Jr., Santa Clara
    Stats: 9.1 ppg, 2.1 apg
    Scout’s take: “Skilled combo guard. Very quick and explosive off the bounce. Great range and good from 3. Best in transition and a solid decision-maker.”
    ● COMMITTED TO USC

    35) Ferron Flavors Jr., 6-3, 190, SG, RS Jr., Cal Baptist
    Stats: 13.5 ppg, 3.5 rpg
    Scout’s take: “Elite shooter with deep range, and a good one-dribble pull-up. He actually shoots a higher percentage when the shot is contested. Needs to think the game better, and give more of an effort on defense but can really help a team offensively.”
    ● COMMITTED TO OKLAHOMA STATE

    36) Nate Johnson, 6-3, 180, SG, Jr., Gardner-Webb
    Stats: 13.5 ppg
    Scout’s take: “Nate Johnson is a big-time shooter who worked to make himself a good shooter. Really developed in his time at Gardner-Webb. I think he’s a specialist at the high-major level.”
    ● COMMITTED TO XAVIER

    37) Quan Jackson, 6-4, 180, G, Grad, Georgia Southern
    Stats: 13.6 ppg
    Scout’s take: “Very aggressive and athletic wing who is an effective downhill transition player. Needs to become a more consistent perimeter shooter.”
    ● COMMITTED TO UAB

    38) Andrew Garcia, 6-5, 230, G, Grad, Stony Brook
    Stats: 13.4 ppg, 6.7 rpg
    Scout’s take: “Undersized 4-man. Strong powerful and tough.  Excellent straight line driver. Only shot 22 percent from 3 in conference and had 100 turnovers.  Poor ball handler and passer.”
    ● COMMITTED TO GEORGIA

    39) Justin Kier, 6-4, 200, SG, Grad, George Mason
    2019-20 stats: 9.6 ppg (9 games)
    Scout’s take: “Led the team in scoring two years ago, but was hurt most of this past season with a foot injury. Versatile guard who can do a little bit of everything. Can shoot it from deep, rebounds well for his position and has really improved throughout his career.”
    ● COMMITTED TO GEORGIA

    40) Chudier Bile, 6-7, 200, F, Grad, Northwestern State
    Stats: 14.3 ppg, 7.6 rpg
    Scout’s take: “Junior college kid who does a little bit of everything. Athletic, rebounds it well, is active and showed he can make shots — both around the rim and also from 3-point range.”
    ● COMMITTED TO GEORGETOWN

    41) Payton Willis, 6-4, 200, SG, RS Jr., Minnesota
    Stats: 8.9 ppg
    Scout’s take: “Combo guard who can shoot the 3 and has a good mid-range game. Works hard on the defensive end. Sound decision-maker who rarely turns the ball over. Has not shown the ability off the bounce to create for others or get to the rim.”
    COMMITTED TO CHARLESTON

    42) Jair Bolden, 6-3, 215, SG, Rs Jr., South Carolina
    Stats:
    8.5 ppg
    Scout’s take: “Good player that can make open 3’s. Needs to improve his ability to handle the ball under pressure and create for others.”
    COMMITTED TO BUTLER

    43) Ryan Betley, 6-5, 200, SG, Sr., Penn

    Stats: 11.6 ppg, 5.8 rpg
    Scout’s take: “Good size and has gotten stronger. Shoots at a high level, but not elite. Has some craftiness to his finishing and good cutter. Good positional defense but not great otherwise. Good rebounder.”
    COMMITTED TO CAL

    44) Chavez Goodwin, 6-9, 225, PF, RS Jr., Wofford
    Stats: 11.9 ppg, 6.2 rpg
    Scout’s take: “Long and athletic, decent rim protecter, scores around the basket, cannot step out, cannot make FT’s, defense ahead of offense, bad body language when behind. Not a HM player.”
    ● COMMITTED TO USC

    45) Makale Foreman, 6-1, 200, G, Grad, Stony Brook
    Stats: 15.6 ppg
    Scout’s take: “Elite shooter with NBA range.  Can make shots off catch or bounce.  32 percent 2-pt FG and negative assist-to-turnover ratio.”
    ● COMMITTED TO CAL

    46) Michael Ertel, 6-2, 190, G, Jr., Louisiana Monroe
    Stats: 16.2 ppg
    Scout’s take: “Threelevel scorer that can really shoot the ball. He moves very well without the ball and constantly makes the defense work and stay alert. High IQ player.”
    ● COMMITTED TO UAB

    47) Jalen Coleman-Lands, 6-4, 185, G, Grad, DePaul
    Stats: 11.1 ppg
    Scout’s take: “Can be a really good catch and shoot guy, but wants to play more with the ball in his hands and that’s really not his strength.”
    ● COMMITTED TO IOWA STATE

    48) Ian DuBose, 6-4, 210, SG, Jr., Houston Baptist
    Stats: 19.0 ppg, 7.3 rpg
    Scout’s take: “Good size, can score all three levels, and he’s creative — more athletic than you think. But they [Houston Baptist] play as fast as they can, so his stats are a little skewed. He’s disinterested on defense at best, but that’s more because of their team and style.”
    ● COMMITTED TO WAKE FOREST

    49) Jeriah Horne, 6-7, 220, F, Grad, Tulsa
    Stats: 11.1 ppg, 5.2 rpg
    Scout’s take: “He’s a 4-man who wants to put it on the floor, but really is just a jump shooter. He can make shots, but can’t really guard.”
    ● COMMITTED TO COLORADO

    50) Justyn Mutts, 6-7, 220, F, Grad (2 years left), Delaware
    Stats: 12.2 ppg, 8.4 rpg
    Scout’s take: “Athletic forward who rebounds and is getting better with the ball and leaning how tp play. Not a stretch forward, more of an undersized big at the high-major level.”
    ● COMMITTED TO VIRGINIA TECH

    51) Evan Cole, 6-10, 230, F, Grad, Georgia Tech
    Stats: 4.4 ppg, 3.6 rpg
    Scout’s take: “Tremendous cutter/slasher who loves to crash the offensive glass and get out in transition. Best with movement and playing downhill, has struggled finding his perimeter shooting consistency. Tough kid who is capable of guarding bigger guys and can surprise you guarding better athletes.”
    ● COMMITTED TO UTAH VALLEY

    52) Jalen Johnson, 6-6, 195, F, Grad, Tennessee
    Stats: 3.5 ppg
    Scout’s take: “Freaking leaping athlete who is a better shooter than his numbers suggest. Good defender and teammate. Struggles handling the ball. Will have a big impact at a mid-major.”
    ● COMMITTED TO WAKE FOREST

    53) Frederick Scott, 6-8, 230, F, Grad, Rider
    Stats: 12.6 ppg, 5.2 rpg
    Scout’s take: “It didn’t work out for him at DePaul, and now he’s going to the ACC. He’s a solid piece at the high-major level. Fairly skilled and can step out and make shots, but he’s not the toughest kid.”
    ● COMMITTED TO BOSTON COLLEGE

    54) Devin Gage, 6-2, 190, SG, RS Jr., DePaul
    Stats: 9.1 ppg, 3.0 rpg, 3.9 apg (2018-19)
    Scout’s take: “Big, strong and physical guard who can really defend on the ball. Can get downhill in the paint. Needs to improve his perimeter shot.”
