Roster changeover continues with the Husker men's basketball program.  Scoring guard Trey McGowans announced on Twitter over the weekend he was planning a move from Pitt to Nebraska. 

Starting in all but one game this past season, McGowans scored 11.5 points a night and made 41 threes in his sophomore year for the Panthers.  Two of his biggest nights were against Louisville and at North Carolina during when he scored 24 points in both games over a three-game stretch.

McGowans could find playing time immediately and become one of Nebraska's top go-to scorers as soon as he lands in Lincoln.

Prior to beginning his first season in Lincoln Head Coach Fred Hoiberg brought in the top two junior college transfers in the country, Cam Mack and Jervay Green.  Both have announced their intentions to leave the NU program after just one season.  Dachon Burke Jr, the team's second-leading scorer, has also announced he is leaving.
