Forrest says he's heard from Racers
MBB: The 6'4 guard has two seasons of eligibility remaining
North Carolina A&T sophomore guard Ryan Forrest tells Dylan Lutey he’s heard from several schools, including Murray State, since entering the transfer portal.
Along with the Racers, Forrest has reportedly been contacted by Arkansas, SMU, UNLV, and Dayton.
After averaging 11.8 points per game as a freshman at Northwestern State, Forrest transferred last season to North Carolina A&T, where he averaged 19.1 points and 3.7 rebounds per game. Forrest has struggled to shoot from the outside, as he’s made just 24.2% of his three-pointers so far in his career.
In late January, North Carolina A&T Head Coach Monte Ross suspended Forrest and two other Aggie players indefinitely for an unspecified violation of team rules. Forrest would not play again this season for NC A&T.
Forrest scored at least 20 points in ten of the 21 games he appeared in this season, highlighted by a 33-point performance against Morgan State.
Here are some highlights of Forrest’s season from Dylan Lutey.
The transfer portal officially opened on Monday, and will remain open until Tuesday, April 22nd.
There has not been any confirmation that this is why they were suspended, but the investigation happened around the same time. https://www.si.com/college-basketball/three-mens-college-basketball-programs-identified-in-alleged-game-fixing-scheme
