Obviously, with 3 scholarship offers taken for the Class of 2021, NU is not taking another high school senior for the class of 2020, nor any transfer who would take up a scholarship in 2021.
Thus, NU must be looking at only grad transfers, or Collins is content to roll with 10 guys this year and let them get a lot of developmental minutes (maybe not a terrible idea, given the uncertainty around what the season will look like anyway).
Here's who they reached out to, per reports, and the current status:
Justin Smith: Transferred to Arkansas
Francis Okoro: Transferred to Saint Louis
Ian DuBose: Transferred to Wake Forest
Nate Johnson: Transferred to Xavier
Darius Banks: Transferred to Chattanooga
Mike Smith: Transferred to Michigan
ESPN's rankings at least suggest there aren't many players out there who remain uncommitted.
