Word has it that Derrick Gordon of UMass is transferring and will be immediately eligible since he will be graduating this year.
Though not a game changer, he is a steady player who will average about 12-14 PPG and will play smart ball.
Being he's from Plainfield, would be real nice for RU to pick up Freeman (JUCO) and hopefully another schollie mysteriously opens for Gordon.
On Gordon transferring, I don't like it from a UMass perspective as they supported and protected him when he came out last year and I personally feel he owes it to UMass to finish his career there - though word has it that he wants a shot with a squad that will propel him to the NBA - for which he is nowhere near a NBA talent IMHO.
