La Salle's Murray likely choices Kansas, West Virginia

  •  

La Salle big man Aaric Murray is likely to transfer to either Kansas or West Virginia, several sources confirmed late Saturday night.

There is no timetable to when an official decision will be made.

The 6-foot-10 Murray will have two years of eligibility remaining but must sit out next season per NCAA rules.

The value of Murray to both the Jayhawks and the Mountaineers would be monumental. Should the power forward wind up with the Jayhawks, he would give Bill Self a ready-made product to step in for Thomas Robinson after next season when Robinson is expected to leave for the NBA.

Meanwhile, a marriage between Murray and the fans of Morgantown would give Bob Huggins an heir apparent to Kevin Jones at power forward.

Last season for LaSalle, Murray averaged 15.2 points per game and 7.7 rebounds per game while notching seven double-doubles.
