I went through and tracked the roster changes for every Big Ten team going into this season. I've found it difficult to keep track with the extra eligibility due to COVID and the massive number of transfers. I'm certain I made several mistakes, which is why I'm reach out to you all to help fill in pieces I might have overlooked. One thing worth noting-- I didn’t account for players that sat out last year that are still on the roster (eg transfers, injuries, etc.). The only one included was Parker Stewart since we've all heard about how he's guaranteed to average 25 ppg next season and shoot 55% from three.
The roster additions include the abbreviation of the school they're transferring in from in parenthesis if they're a transfer. If they're a true freshman then I included their 247 composite ranking after their name.
Please let me know if you notice any inaccuracies. I'll try to update this initial post as news comes in, but please feel free to post links to announcements here if anything gets changed/clarified. Oh, and Penn State and Minnesota are going to be doormats next year and have had so much roster attrition that I didn't bother. If someone feels the urge to do a summary for either of those schools have at it, and I'll add it in.
