Frain: Ten Underrated Mid-Major Transfers to Watch for--The Portal Report
2.) Noah Reynolds – Green Bay
Green Bay hasn’t had a season with
10+ wins since 2019-20, but under first-year head coach Sundance Wicks
and Reynolds, the Phoenix sit 9-8 and are primed to change that. After
spending two seasons at Wyoming, averaging 14.5 PPG as a sophomore,
Reynolds wanted a new challenge and an opportunity to lead his own team
while continuing to showcase his skills. Following over Wicks, a former
Wyoming assistant, Reynolds has only further developed his game in Green
Bay, averaging career-highs of 18.4 PPG, 3.6 RPG, and 4.2 APG, while
shooting a career-best 51% on field goals and 36% from three.
And he truly has become a leader for
these Phoenix, starting all 17 contests of the early season Reynolds has
contributed a 24-point effort at Valparaiso, 31 points to beat out UIC,
and more recently, notched a career-high 39 points against Wright
State. With Green Bay off to a 5-2 start in the Horizon League despite
being picked dead last in the preseason poll, look for Reynolds to
continue exceeding expectations throughout the rest of this season.

9.) Jalen Jackson – Purdue Fort Wayne
After back-to-back seasons with a winning record but falling short in either Horizon League play or the conference tournament, the Mastodons are back with a vengeance, off to a 13-3 start despite being picked eighth in the preseason poll. With a new cast of transfer contributors in this offseason, Jackson has been critical to Purdue Fort Wayne’s early success averaging a team-leading 15.1 PPG.
Shooting 52% from the field and 43% from deep, Jackson’s consistency has been evident throughout the season with 13 points to upset DePaul, 19 points in a win over Green Bay, and recently notching a career-high 24 points over Wright State. The Mastodons have a 4-1 record in conference play thus far and the UIC transfer has been a major factor in leading this offense. Look for him and Division II transfer Rasheed Bello to finally break through for PFW in the Horizon League Tournament later this season.
