  * Announced his intention to transfer in, and play a graduate year, on 4/7/2021.((https://twitter.com/Trent_Buttrick/status/1379815770717323269))((https://www.blackshoediaries.com/2021/4/7/22371896/former-penn-state-basketball-forward-trent-buttrick-transfers-to-umass))  UM confirmed the signing on 4/15/21.((https://umassathletics.com/news/2021/4/15/mens-basketball-minutemen-add-trent-buttrick-as-graduate-transfer.aspx))
  * Coach [[mccall_matt|Matt McCall]] comments on the signing: "We're very excited to welcome Trent to our program in 2021-22. Trent brings significant size and strength to our roster, along with the ability to stretch the floor and a tenacity under the bucket will greatly benefit our team. Having played four seasons in the Big Ten, he will be able to pull from his experience facing some of the top players in the country when going against the talented bigs in the Atlantic 10. Trent is a high character kid. We're confident that the way he conducts himself on and off the floor will rub off on his teammates. We're looking forward to having Trent join our program."((https://umassathletics.com/news/2021/4/15/mens-basketball-minutemen-add-trent-buttrick-as-graduate-transfer.aspx))
