Earl Pettis is coming home. The Philadelphia native is transferring out of Rutgers and has decided to head back to the City of Brotherly Love and attend La Salle. Within the last 15 minutes a source close to the situation informed me of the move. Pettis, who will have two years left to play at the A-10 school, averaged 4.6 points, 2.5 rebounds, and 1.1 assists per game this year, playing 17.6 minutes a contest. Pettis, a 6'5 wing, played in all but one of RU's 32 games this past season, and played 20+ minutes in 13 of those affairs. Again, according to a source close to the situation, Earl Pettis is transferring from Rutgers to La Salle.
