Butler has no grad transfers (so far), targets high school prospect

INDIANAPOLIS – Some of Butler’s Midwest rivals in college basketball — Xavier, Purdue, Ohio State, Northwestern — have all landed transfers in recent days.

As for the Bulldogs’ fishing? Few nibbles and no bites. So far anyway.

Butler has two scholarships available for the 2018-19 season. Given that many programs hold onto one for a last-minute transfer, that leaves just one, for all practical purposes.

The Bulldogs have not given up on the 2018 high school class. Butler is among six possible destinations for 6-9 power forward Bryce Golden of Saint James (Md.) School. Others are Connecticut, Georgetown, Illinois, Syracuse and Wichita State.
