Looking to go to a mid major close to home... Oakland may be an option. He was a very highly touted guard out of high school.

Jeff Goodman of FoxSports.net tweeted, "The word I am getting is that Illinois/Kentucky transfer Alex Legion will likely end up at a mid-major D-1 school." That could rule out an NAIA school (though we still think an NAIA institution would be a good fit for Legion). So, if Legion still wants to play close to home, Summit League, Mid-American and Horizon League teams are definitely in play, as they are the closest mid-major leagues in the Illinois/Michigan/Ohio area.

Another possible destination could be Illinois State. The Redbirds are losing Osiris Eldridge to graduation but Legion could sit for a calendar year or three semesters and then have a similar impact of former one-season Redbird Champ Oguchi.
