Arizona Wildcats fans are no strangers to players transferring from the program in recent years, from Sidiki Johnson (who transferred to and then from Providence), Angelo Chol, Craig Victor, and Justin Simon just this year. Occasionally, like with "Momo" Jones, there is a desire (if not necessity) to be closer to home which motivates the transfer. Occasionally a player has graduated and can play one year at another school, immediately at that. But more often than not the issue is role and/or playing time.
Much was made of Gabe York choosing to stay with the program despite limited minutes and the fruits that came from that commitment, including being an All-Pac-12 Second Team selection as a senior and now having an opportunity to work out for NBA teams.
