The big man decides not to transfer
Ernest Ross, who had announced he was transferring to UTSA, has decided to decline that opportunity and return to the Pack this season for his final season.
This is outstanding news. It was unlikely we would be able to sign anyone as good as Big E.
Ernest was one of Coach Keatts’ highest ranked recruits coming out of high school, top 100, 4 stars.
He has played 62 games at State with no starts, averaging 2.3 points and 1.8 rebounds. But he has played a significant role in several wins, my favorite being the Miami game in which he almost single handedly won with 17 points and 9 rebounds.
Welcome back big guy, we are looking forward to seeing you on the court next season!
