April 17 (before 5pmET)

C Kyle Arrington (6-10, 225). Former school: Western Illinois (4.1ppg, 3.8rpg). New school: Siena.

Comments: Arrington averaged just 12.7 minutes per game last year, but does have size.

F Maurice Calloo (6-9, 225). Former school: Oklahoma State (2.5ppg in 2018-19). New school: Oregon State.

Comments: Calloo played last season at Indian Hills Community College and is going back to a P5 school. Certainly, an intriguing prospect because he can play right away and has size.

F Justyn Hamilton (6-10, 220). Former school: Temple (3.3ppg). New school: Kent State.

Comments: Big man with one year left. Has some talent, but never showed much at Temple. He did start in 15 games last year, but only averaged 10.5 minutes per game.

G Juhwan Harris-Dyson (6-6, 204). Former school: California (4ppg). New school: ?

Comments: Harris-Dyson suffered a hand injury last season and played in just 13 games. Has some talent, but should go to a mid-major for his final season.

C Brandon Hoffman (6-10, 255). Former school: North Carolina (1.3ppg). New school: Nicholls State.

Comments: Huffman rarely played at North Carolina in three years and it's not a definite that he's eligible right away. But it's not the worst pickup for a low-level D1 program.

F Dontarius James (6-7, 228). Former school: Xavier (1.4ppg). New school: Jacksonville State.

Comments: Another big who played sparingly in two seasons at a great program in Xavier. He will likely have to sit out, but will have a chance to play at Jax State.

C Hayden Koval (7-0, 220). Former school: Central Arkansas (12.2ppg, 7.6rpg). New school: UNC Greensboro.

Comments: Koval may have to sit out because he's not considered to be a grad transfer, despite playing three seasons. Very productive big man, who blocked 3.1 shots per game. Good pickup for NC Greensboro.

C Tayler Mattos (6-11, 250). Former school: Bowling Green (4.9ppg, 5.1rpg). New school: New Hampshire

Comments: Not a big scorer, but has great size and could help in the America East. Good rebounder who started 30 games, but averaged just 15 minutes per game. Will have two years left.

F Francis Okoro (6-9, 235). Former school: Oregon (3.3ppg, 4.2rpg). New school: ?

Comments: Okoro was a role player in two seasons for Oregon and showed some flashes as a rebounder. Somebody will take a chance on a big man with some ability to rebound.
