Indiana Basketball Transfer Portal Watch List: April 6, 2024

  • Apr 6, 2024 11:04 am in

We’re now 19 days into the 45-day period for entering the transfer portal. The list of prospects who have mentioned Indiana as a potential suitor continues to change.

As IU’s recruiting efforts come into more focus, we’ll continue to publish new transfer portal watch lists. This list is a compilation of prospects who IU has reportedly been in contact with.

Of note: A dead period for recruiting begins Thursday, April 4 and runs through Thursday, April 11. Here is the definition of a dead period, per the NCAA: A dead period is that period of time when it is not permissible to make in-person recruiting contacts or evaluations on or off the member institution’s campus or to permit official or unofficial visits by prospective student-athletes to the institution’s campus.

For the first time, we’ve split the watch list into two tiers. The first tier is prospects that IU is believed to have significant interest in and the second tier is a list of those who have mentioned IU, but the interest beyond that is unclear. 

Within each tier, the prospects are listed in alphabetical order by first name. The listing is not in order of importance or perceived mutual interest.
