Buffalo’s 2021 class just got a big bigger, both in the number of players and their size.
Eddie Zinn Turner, who was a grad student at Vanderbilt announced on twitter that he is transferring to Buffalo to complete his education.
After further consideration, I am happy to announce that I will be playing at the University of Buffalo for my last season of eligibility. I would like to thank (God) everyone who has helped me get to this point, and the coaches at UB for this opportunity. #GodSpeed pic.twitter.com/09fv5AqQNF

Buffalo was among Zinn’s final choices when he picked Vandy last season, the Marist transfer.
Zinn was able to play after passing a post graduate entrance process which included the Miller’s exam and interviews with faculty.
But all the hard work ran up against a roadblock when Zinn-Turner suffered a season ending knee injury in the preseason. He had an operation in October and was granted a 6th year by the NCAA.
