Miami and Providence Friars are vying for the services of a top player.
Bensley Joseph, a guard from Miami, will go to Providence.
Miami transfer guard Bensley Joseph gets signed by Kim English.
According to 247Sports, Bensley Joseph, a junior from Miami, will play for the Providence Friars after transferring to the New England area. Arlington, Massachusetts-born Joseph, a 6-foot-2, 195-pound guard, made his selection after seeing Providence’s campus this week. During the previous season, Joseph played in 32 games for the Hurricanes, averaging 9.6 points, 3.4 rebounds, and 3.4 assists per contest while shooting 36.4 percent from outside the arc.
Due to his dedication, he will be one of Kim English’s new additions this summer, along with three-star rookie Ryan Mela. Erhunmwunse Oswin, a four-star junior big man, is another possibility to make the squad this offseason after improving his class. As Joseph gets to campus, he will still be eligible for one more season.
The transfer gateway is scheduled to be available until Wednesday, May 1st, having opened on March 18th. A player may request a transfer at any point during that time by submitting the necessary papers to their present institution. The player then has 48 hours to enter the information into the NCAA Portal database.
Players who have accrued enough credits to graduate may access the portal at any moment, identified as a “Grad Transfer,” before the window opens on March 18 and after it ends on May 1. Players on that team are also granted a 30-day opportunity to access the portal in conjunction with any coaching change, such as a head coach being sacked or taking a new position. This window is not limited to the period between March 18 and May 1. Other schools are allowed to get in touch with a player and start the recruiting process once the athlete has formally registered on the transfer site.
This off-season, a new regulation was also implemented that will significantly impact the transfer market. Players were allowed a one-time transfer waiver in the past, and the NCAA required a waiver to be issued in order for them to become immediately eligible again if they transferred again. According to a recent directive from the NCAA, transfers this spring should be eligible for the 2024–25 season right away.
