Last April, a top-100 recruit, Alex Galindo backed out of his plans to attend UTEP when the coach there left for Texas A&M. Galindo, who lives in New Jersey, narrowed his choices to Kansas, Rutgers and Pitt. Ultimately, he chose Kansas.

Now, it appears that Galindo is looking to transfer. He is apparently interested in playing closer to home. It isn’t clear whether that means New Jersey, or just somewhere closer.

Galindo is a 6’7″ guard/forward (you know, the position Pitt couldn’t seem to find a consistent starter at all season). He cracked a very deep Kansas rotation to average 10 minutes/game and 4.1 points/game. He was a fairly accurate 3-point shooter at 41.9% (17-44).

If he transfers he has to sit out a year. Still, it is something to keep an eye on. The article is worth clicking, just so you can click the link to review the “Women of KU” 2005 calendar.
