An apparent 'mass exodus' (<--) at Virginia. Since UVa's coach Tony Bennet is thought to be a strong candidate for Indy's HC position, this situation may have an impact in that respect.

USAT on UVa's stampede.
Ii seems guard Darius Thompson is the latest to announce his decision to transfer, joining two other teammates. Apparently DT could play immediately next season as a grad student.

I haven' checked whether any of the mentioned players looks like a good fit at NU.

None of them will want to play in a 6,800 seat refurbished urban renewal gym.

DT apparently had an offer from Vandy, which suggests that out of HS he was viewed as a strong student. He also had offers from Purdue and Virginia. He spent a year at Tenn before transferring to UVa. Sounds as if he would qualify academically at NU, if he has done well as a student at UVa, in case the coaching staff felt he could help next season.

6,800 seat refurbished gym. No way he comes to NU.
