Sucks Brandon's leaving but I get it

When the "portal closes"... I assume that means when college players can no longer ENTER the portal? But players who are already in the portal can still transfer to a new team after the date that the portal "closes"?
Do you have any ideas or opinions whether that additional guard will be someone who's now in the portal? Or a European player?
Plenty of time to add an international player before or during the summer
Not likely too many backup minutes available there.
Interesting, 247 shows that we offered Nasir Anderson on Feb 2, but we don't appear in their "College List - Interest" section
I agree completely, though that wasn’t the basis of the argument. The idea was Blackwell would be guard #5 behind Coleman, Vaaks, Morillo, and Brown

At the risk of being rude, what precisely did y'all see from Brandon Lee that you're gonna miss? Seems like the staff got better guys and played them over him, and they got better guys again this offseason. I wish him the best and will be rooting for him but am not at all sad.
Rowan Brumbaugh?
DGL back?
Joel Goodson
- how was I to know, she was with the Russians too?
is Blackwood Greenwell's cousin? does he have game?
I was just going to ask if he had another year left
his jumper is still sort of broken but man it would be nice to have a cooler we could bring in off the bench.pretty sure Blackwell would not be behind any of those guys unless we get another unicorn this year
I am confused yet again. Are we talking about getting him for the next year, the 2027-28 season, and not this season? Isn’t Anderson in the class of ’27? Is he re-classifying?
By the way, Illinois offered him Feb. 3 of this year.
He was WCC freshman of the year and 6th man of the year. Watched him twice against Oregon State. Got in foul trouble both games but very productive when he was in.
I eat a lot of cottage cheese and it has never occurred to me to put sweet fixin's in it.
It's greek seasoning and crumbled saltine crackers for me.
If you view the complete list, there are almost 30 schools.
About the 5th year for Boswell. Even if they decide to change the rule, I think there's zero chance it applies right away.

How about 6'3" junior G Tylen Riley (Tulsa)? [15.0/3.9/4.4 and 44.8/38.9/87.1] And how about 6'10" senior F Kyle Evans (UC Irvine)? [12.1/8.7/0.9 and 62.0/20.0/78.8]
Another previously mentioned big man is 6'10" sophomore PF/C Danilo Dozic (Pepperdine). [Misko is his agent.] He averaged 11.3/2.7/1.5 while shooting 43.1/36.3/77.0 this past season.
Until the parameters are finalized, there still exists a probability of this happening. That said, said probability may begin with a decimal...and maybe followed by a zero...or two...or three.
