    Share Zagsblog Share Zagsblog
    Rutgers guard Eli Carter is considering six schools for his next stop.

    “The schools that I am considering are Maryland, Florida, Memphis, Creighton, Buffalo & Pittsburgh !!” he Tweeted.

    Carter met Tuesday with Florida and Pitt and was slated to meet with Maryland on Wednesday.

    “Right now his dad wants to talk to a few coaches and see what their plans are for him and where they see him fitting into their program,” Sports U coach Brian Coleman previously told SNY.tv.

    “He’s kind of open, he’s looking for the best fit where he can get a chance to showcase himself.”

    The 6-foot-2 Carter averaged 14.9 points, 2.8 rebounds and 2.1 assists before fracturing his right fibula in mid-February against DePaul.

    He would have two years of eligibility remaining and could apply for a waiver to play immediately given the extenuating circumstances surrounding Mike Rice’s firing.

    Carter’s former teammate, junior wing Mike Poole, announced plans to transfer to Iona on Tuesday.
