Jordan Tyson, a 6-foot-10 power forward, may be transferring to Georgia State.

The website panthertalk was the first to notice a tweet sent from Tyson’s high school coach congratulating him on his move.

Tyson averaged 2.3 points and 3.2 rebounds last season.

He will have to sit out next year, per the NCAA’s transfer rules and then will have two years of eligibility remaining.

Tyson is originally from Columbus Ohio.

A Georgia State spokesman declined to comment.
