Harvey looks like he could really be a high-impact transfer

This kid appears to be really good. Don't laugh....   🙂 but if you go watch some of his videos his game is a lot like Larry Bird's.....Im not saying he is Larry Bird, but he has a midrange jumper , can post up and drills the three....10 pt average as a freshman in any D1 league is impressive. He will have to sit a year though I believe, if he chooses SIU.

Good article on why Harvey chose to go to EIU despite other offers:

Why is he leaving EIU?

If I were just guessing, he realized he can play at a  higher level....kids don’t fool around today, for better or worse.

 Wow - I really like what little I saw of Harvey on tape.  He could play a role like Matt Shaw did for the Salukis, except perhaps not as strong- YET.   A LOT to like here !!!!!

Here's the most current transfers list I could find.  There are a lot of big men still available.

The ratio of inbound to outbound transfers is going to improve substantially with Mullins. 

In general, it's great to have a steady stream of quality recruits in town, and the campus definitely shows well in the spring. Looking forward to seeing which guys end up choosing to be Salukis.

One of the things Hucky did so poorly was take advantage of the ever-growing transfer market in college basketball.  Have a feeling this is gonna change going forward.

Anyone hear anything on the Reeves kid? He looks to be a heck of a player, but all has gone quiet since his visit...

Harvey could turn out to be a STUD in the MVC.   I really hope they are able to sign this kid.  Has the skill AND the work ethic to be a difference maker IMO

I completely agree. Having a freshman year like he just completed at any D1 level is impressive. Reminds me of a Larry Bird, Bob Harstad type.....
