The NC State Basketball staff is looking much better after a busy week. The official roster page had only Coach Gainey listed a week ago, but look at it now. “I couldn’t be happier to have these five coaches join me at NC State,” said Gainey. “This coaching staff brings championship experience and a mindset […]
‘Tis the season for words like “bag” and “speed dating” in reference to college hoops portal activity. The Illini are always an ever-present force in Portal Kombat. Whether it’s their most notorious misses (RayJ Dennis, AJ Storr, Josh Dix) or their most glorious hits (Terrence Shannon Jr., Marcus Domask, Andrej Stojakovic), Illinois is a major […]
This piece is dedicated to Illinois alumni. If you have ever called the University of Illinois home, I am writing this to let you know that I hear you. This run to the Final Four was amazing. Many of us didn’t experience these heights as students. Some, like our fearless leader Stephen Cohn, had to […]
TCU men’s basketball lost another player to the transfer portal. This time, it’s sophomore center Malick Diallo, who missed practically the entire 2025-26 season to a knee injury but will depart after two years with the Horned Frogs. A former four-star recruit, Diallo played in six minutes before suffering an ACL injury in TCU’s season-opener […]
Arizona Wildcats head coach Becky Burke posted several teases over the past two days. A comment about a “big dog” visiting, a partial view of a video shoot, and a post of a McDonald’s gif. Was it a current or past McDonald’s All-American visiting Arizona? The truth is known. Former California guard Aliyahna ‘Puff’ Morris […]

This is awesome:
We’ve made it through one more week and that means we’ve got more survey results headed your way. This week we are once again focused on the men’s basketball program as we look ahead to next season. The transfer portal is open and I wanted to know which position Purdue should focus on as they […]
Andrija Jelavic will not be returning to Kentucky Basketball, instead opting to commit to the Ohio State Buckeyes on Friday, according to Jonathan Givony. When Jelavic first entered the portal earlier this week, the belief was he’d still consider returning to Kentucky once he saw what he could get on the open market. But whether […]
The 2025-26 Kentucky Basketball season was filled with injuries, crazy moments, and more injuries. Mark Pope’s team tried to overcome every obstacle that was thrown their way, but it just wasn’t meant to be. The Wildcats played the majority of their season without potential lottery pick Jayden Quaintance, who was rehabbing from a torn ACL, […]

Jaeden Mustaf, a rising junior wing out of Georgia Tech, will be in Bloomington for an official visit with the program. If the name sounds familiar, it’s because he was an Indiana recruiting […]
Softball vs. Maryland When: Today, 3:00 pm PT Where: College Park, MD Watch: Big Ten Network The Ducks (29-9, 10-2 Big-10) travel east to face the Maryland Terrapins (14-23, 1-14 Big-10). Maryland occupies the cellar of the Big-10 rankings, and they are dreadfully awful even by Big-10 standards. Even so, we will be watching the […]
Before the Trent Sisley loyalists get on me, let me note that he was an exception to Darian DeVries’ original blank slate rework of the program, being a Mike Woodson recruit who stuck around for the new regime. Andrej Acimovic is a second hold over, but having entered zero games last season, he has a […]
Indianapolis Colts CB Kenny Moore to be traded! IU Basketball hosts Mustaf! Pacers loss tonight key!
Maryland men’s basketball guard Isaiah Watts is entering the transfer portal, On3’s Pete Nakos first reported Friday.

Sophomore forward Malcolm Flaggs has entered the transfer portal. The 6’6” forward appeared in one game this year, recording one rebound and missing one shot in two minutes played against Penn. Flaggs, who followed Duke Brennan from Arizona State to Grand Canyon to Villanova, will presumably be looking for somewhere he can get some minutes […]
Okay, maybe this isn’t Tom Izzo’s Wishlist. But it should be – somebody send him the link! Here are four centers that I think Michigan State should be pursuing in the transfer portal – two that may be more of a reach and two that may be more realistic. I’ll be referencing On3’s list of […]
In three years under head coach Mike Hastings, each year has delivered peaks and valleys. The Wisconsin Badgers ascended to the nation’s top ranking in 2023-24, Hastings’ first year at the helm, before a late-season collapse resulted in a first-round overtime loss to Quinnipiac. The valleys were lower in year two as they struggled to […]
