Sorry if I missed any discussion regarding his transfer from Stanford, but I couldn't find anything on the boards. Was curious to see if we've shown any interest? He would obviously be a great pickup, and immediately eligible as a graduate transfer (at least I think so). It still upsets me that we just missed having his father in a TU uniform, so it would be a little consolation to have the younger version on campus, if only for a year haha.
