Not surprisingly, Washington transfer Nigel Williams-Goss has become one of the top targets this offseason.
He told Percy Allen of the Seattle Times on Friday that Arkansas, Georgetown, Gonzaga, Michigan State, Providence, Texas and UNLV have all reached out to him. Williams-Goss averaged 15.6 points, 4.7 rebounds and 5.6 assists per game as a sophomore. He was granted his release on Thursday.
From the Seattle Times:
Williams-Goss told Allen that reports that said this move was due to a “lack of cohesion” were false. The Huskies were ranked in the top-15 in December until an upset loss -- on their home floor -- to Stony Brook started a four-game losing streak. Lorenzo Romar kicked off Robert Upshaw of the team, the nation’s top shot blocker, on Jan. 26, right at the point of the season when the wheels came off, as Washington lost 10-of-12 to close out the year.
On Friday, two more Huskies decided to transfer, as Darin Johnson and Gilles Dierickx were both granted their release.
