Eli Carter led Rutgers in scoring in both his seasons here, and is one of many players to transfer from the program in the past three years.
The Rutgers men's basketball team has had an unfortunate historical pattern with annual transfers leaving the program over the years. As the current team sits at 6-21 overall and 0-14 in the Big Ten, depth has been a major issue. Even before the injuries and suspensions, Rutgers had just 11 active scholarship players to start the season. Kansas State transfer Nigel Johnson is sitting out per transfer rules and the other spot remained open after the staff was unable to fill it before the season.
