No, not the wife-murdering Bolingbrook, Ill., cop who’s now in jail; the basketball player from Libertyville (Ill.) that NU recruited but never offered a couple years ago. He wound up at Rice and is now transferring into the Big Ten with Minnesota.

Always wondered what happened to him. I saw him as a kid who could develop into a bench guy like Taphorn. This is one area where I think Collins has developed a blind spot in recruiting. But since the advent of the transfer culture, it's not apparently as important to fill out the roster with a couple of developmental kids.

Why does damn near every tweet about a commitment or a transfer include the phrase, "With that being said . . ."? :rolleyes:

Drew did not have an offer above mid major. He tailed off in HS after his sophomore year but then had a nice college career at Rice.

His friends said that we didn't have a scholarship for him. He would take one from 21 and 22.

We could take a grad transfer but not a 3 yr (sit out one and play 2)

Maybe Haywood knows

As someone who just complained about a potential future rotation guy transferring, I think he might have ended up as a potential future rotation guy who transferred. Kopp, Nance, and Beran will likely soak up most forward minutes the next two years.
