Georgia Tech Transfers Fueling NCAA Success
26 Jan
Summary
- Georgia Tech transfers are making significant impacts on multiple teams.
- Dani Carnegie leads surprising Georgia Bulldogs with 18.9 PPG.
- Tonie Morgan leads SEC in assists with 8.6 per game for K-State.
The departure of Georgia Tech's coaching staff has led to a significant talent dispersal, with former Yellow Jackets players now making substantial impacts on various NCAA teams. Dani Carnegie, a sophomore guard, is a standout for the surprising Georgia Bulldogs, averaging 18.9 points per game with exceptional efficiency and recently delivering back-to-back 30-point performances.
K-State's rise is partly attributed to point guard Tonie Morgan, a transfer from Georgia Tech. Morgan is currently leading the SEC in assists with an average of 8.6 per game, effectively running the Wildcats' offense. Iowa has also benefited, with Chazadi Wright providing crucial perimeter creation for the Hawkeyes, who are enjoying their best Big Ten start since the 1995-96 season.
Kentucky is navigating the absence of Teonni Key, with Clara Strack seeing a dip in scoring and efficiency. Duke has achieved an 11-game winning streak, notably with Riley Nelson in the lineup, boosting their offense. South Carolina experimented with a four-guard lineup, securing a decisive victory over Vanderbilt. Freshman Mia Pauldo has become a steadying force for Tennessee, providing crucial scoring.
