When is 'signing day' for transfers?

I assume just whenever they choose to lock it in before the deadline ends

I don’t think there is an official signing day.

This guy looks interesting and mentioned Furman. Big guy that can shoot.

Charles Johnston, 6' 11" 220 , is a sophomore at Cal State Monterrey Bay. He is from Sydney , Australia. Johnston averaged 13 ppg and 10.7 rpg and was picked second team all conference in the CCAA. D2 conference.

His father was a professional cricket player from Ireland, and one of his uncles was a pro rugby player in Australia.

Another transfer once recruited by the Paladins is on the move again. Zane Meeks , 6'9" forward, is leaving Arizona State. Meeks is from the Kansas City area. He signed with Nevada originally. Later he transferred to San Francisco and helped them make the NCAA tourny while there. He then transferred to ASU before last season. He may have been injured last season and only played in 5 games. His previous year at USF he avg. about 11 ppg and 5 rpg. Playing style similar to Hien. Maybe not quite as athletic, but a better shooter. He hit over 32% of his threes at USF and over 70% of his FTs.

Love his game for our system!

Pictures of spring practice have been posted on Instagram, Hien was involved in practice activities it looks like... I guess that means we'll have him back for another year?

Hien will be back for another year.

A quick scan of the 1619 players listed on Verbal Commits as transferring shows 189 as having picked a new school. There are 14 who announced transfers but appear to be staying put with their current schools.

lots of commits so far (for other teams). With the visits this WE and mouning pressure of open slots (300 good slots ... 100 good D1 teams with 3 avg open slots per) with over 2000 players, have to bet that many kids will commit this weekend

Would make sense!

From the Timmons event, #32 was on the screen at the very end. After some research, looks like it was Josh Corbin from Robert Morris
