Sophomore forwards Jeantal Cylla, Jesse Hill and guard Nick Rutherford, will be transferring out of the Florida Atlantic men’s basketball program, according to a source close to the program. FAU Owl Access first reported the news.

Cylla came to FAU after earning all-state and all-academic honors during his time at Lake Worth High School, and appeared in all 33 games for the Owls during his freshman year, including 24 starts.
