Jerod Haase, who had been head coach of Cardinals basketball for the past eight seasons, was recently let go, which could have factored into Andrej’s decision to enter the transfer portal.
It will be interesting to monitor where Andrej Stojakovic will continue his collegiate basketball career and what year he will enter his name into the NBA Draft, assuming that is the eventual goal for the 6’6 wing.
As a five-star recruit from Jesuit High School, there should be plenty of interest from schools around the country, including those that previously attempted to scout him during his initial commitment stage just one year ago.
