Georgetown sophomore Brandon Murray, a small forward, has announced he will transfer to Ole Miss as Chris Beard’s first portal commitment. It has taken longer than most expected, and the first transfer isn’t incredible, but he’s a solid piece to join the team.
The 6’5” Murray averaged 13.7 points per game last season on nearly 40% shooting overall and 32% from three. He wasn’t very efficient at Georgetown as a shooter, but it can be tough to maintain focus and composure when your team is in the midst of going 7-25. He was the #80 overall player in the country coming out of high school, originally signing with Will Wade’s LSU, where he spent his first season.
