Georgetown sophomore guard Jeremiah Rivers has made the decision to transfer, becoming the second Hoya to do so this offseason. Rivers is the son of Boston Celtics head coach Doc Rivers. Jeremiah said that he discussed the idea with his family, deciding to move on to a school better suited for him. Rivers played in all 34 of Georgetown's games this year and averaged 2.5 PPG and 2.4 RPG.This is a good decision by Rivers and it shouldn't hurt John Thompson III and Georgetown. Rivers was getting the minutes, 18.6 per game, but wasn't producing with only 2.5 PPG and 1.0 APG. Rivers should be more effective and a change of scenery might allow him to have an impact. Georgetown shouldn't be missing out because they are consistently at the top of the Big East and Thompson III is a great recruiter.
