I couldn't disagree more. Baylor, Kentucky, Illinois, Iowa State, LSU, Auburn, and Marquette are all where they are because of transfers. Just look at this list from midseason alone:
College basketball transfer rankings: Oscar Tshiebwe, James Akinjo lead 20 most impactful at midseason point
These 20 transfers have stood out among a group of more than 1,700 for their impact so far this seasonwww.cbssports.com
I haven't analyzed any of those teams at all so I don't know what their situations are or were. I think just off the cuff many of those teams were solid tournament teams before they added a guy who ended up being good and some of the teams on the list didn't fair much better.
We're not Kentucky.
