Georgia Bulldogs

The Bulldogs added a pair of top-100 guards this offseason in Silas Demary Jr. and Blue Cain to be part of the future core. They also have Jabri Abdur-Rahim and RJ Melendez, a pair of juniors and former top-100 recruits as well. Only Niagara transfer Noah Thomasson has to leave after next year but without true wings on the current roster, there’s definitely a path for playing time for Swartz.

Indiana Hoosiers

The Hoosiers were looking for additions at shooting guard this offseason but failed to land anyone. So that presents opportunities for CJ Gunn, Trey Galloway, and Anthony Leal. Assuming that projected starting wing Mackenzie Mgbako is only around for one year, there’s certainly a path to playing time out of the gate for Swartz.

Miami Hurricanes

Despite losing ACC Player of the Year Isaiah Wong, the Hurricanes still have plenty of depth at the shooting guard position. Wooga Poplar is back for his senior season, along with four underclassmen guards, including Kyshawn George and Paul Djobet. Swartz has the chance to be better than any of them but Miami has bigger needs at all four other positions, mainly filling up the frontcourt.
