On Friday morning, ESPN posted its ranking of the top 100 college basketball transfers so far this offseason.
Of the top 25 players on the list, eight are headed to SEC schools. More importantly, the league has lost just one top-25 transfer.
Moving further down the list, the SEC still comes out ahead with four incoming transfers ranked between 26 and 50, along with the intraconference transfer of Xavier Pinson.
All told, the conference has so far come out with a net gain of eight top-50 transfers. No other league has net gained more than one top-50 transfer.
Eleven SEC teams have picked up at least one Top 100 transfer, including seven teams with gains in the top 25 of ESPN’s list.
