Transfer guard Jermaine Couisnard lists Ducks in top seven

South Carolina transfer guard Jermaine Couisnard listed the Oregon Ducks among his top seven schools on Monday.

The Oregon Ducks already lost a trio of players to the NCAA transfer portal this offseason, but help may be on the horizon for coach Dana Altman and his staff.

Jermaine Couisnard, a guard transfer from South Carolina, is down to seven schools he is choosing between – and Oregon made the list.

Oregon is listed alongside Gonzaga, Ohio State, Houston, DePaul, Maryland, and UMass, according to Joe Tipton of On3.

Couisnard entered the portal after two seasons with the Gamecocks, likely due to the firing of head coach Frank Martin.

The six-foot-four guard from Indiana averaged 12 points, 2.5 rebounds, and 3.2 assists last season, and he will have two years of eligibility remaining wherever he does end up.

Couisnard would fill the hole left by guard Eric Williams quite nicely in Eugene, as the team is in need of some scoring reinforcements on the wing.

Will Richardson has yet to announce whether he is returning or going pro, but either way this team could use another score first guard on the roster, and Couisnard would provide experience, scoring, and quality defense to Oregon’s guard rotation.

Did he stay or did he go? Tracking the biggest NBA draft decisions

All prospects who declared early entry for the 2021 NBA draft without foregoing their collegiate eligibility had until July 7 to withdraw.

All prospects who declared early entry for the 2021 NBA draft without foregoing their collegiate eligibility had until July 7 to withdraw.

While the official date from the league is not actually until July 19, the NCAA has mandated the deadline of July 7 for players who wish to play college basketball next season.

Prospects who declared as early entry candidates but were just “testing the waters” often opt to return to the collegiate ranks so as to improve their draft stock for the subsequent year instead. But there are several reasons why a player might be even more willing to return to college for another campaign than usual.

For example, seniors have the option to use another year of eligibility because of the massive impact of COVID-19. Others may be interested in playing another year of college in front of fans after last season was met with many restrictions.

Meanwhile, all NCAA athletes also now have the ability to profit from their name, image and likeness (NIL) for the first time. This offers an avenue to collect some money while still in college without needing to fully commit to turning pro.

Here are the latest updates about who is still testing the waters, who will be turning pro and who will be returning to the NCAA.
