The point is he has a terrible assist/turnover ratio for a point guard, which made me question if he even is one. You're splitting hairs just as much as I am. Nick Norton's assist/turnover ratio is 3.06. Nate Mason's, who is not known as a pass first point guard by any means, was 2.8. Nixon's is 0.95. That's a pretty big difference and only slightly better than Reggie Lynch's (0.93). I think it's fair to question how much of a point guard he is and whether he would actually be competing with Washington for the starting spot.
Norton off the board after committing to Drake.

Well, there's nothing special academically about Drake, particularly at the graduate level. Maybe he just wanted to get this over with. These are the last few weeks of the semester (possibly a pretty busy time for him) and he didn't want to spend time visiting a bunch of places. Maybe he saw Drake and just thought it was a good enough fit.
I think Reid Travis name has popped up somewhere in this thread. Found this article interesting.

I saw that too when it was posted. It does say in the article that Reid Travis has not publicly announced that he is transferring. The logic seems to be “If he’s testing the NBA draft waters, it’s a sign he might be interested in playing elsewhere next season.” So it’s still largely speculation as to whether he will transfer at all.
