Matthew Mayer narrows transfer options down to 4 programs
Former Baylor forward Matthew Mayer has reportedly narrowed down his potential transfer options to four programs, according to Jeff Goodman of Stadium.
Mayer, who has one year of eligibility remaining, entered the transfer portal in April while also testing the NBA pre-draft process. He announced this week that he would withdraw from the draft and transfer to a different program next season.
He heard from several programs after entering the portal and unveiled his top four options: Illinois, Memphis, North Carolina and Texas Tech. However, the NCAA is in a recruiting dead period, meaning Mayer will not be able to take official visits until May 28.
Mayer averaged 9.8 points, five rebounds, 1.2 steals and one assist on 40.9% shooting from the field in 33 games last season. He is viewed as perhaps the top transfer on the market and could help a program make a deep run in the NCAA Tournament next season.
