2025 Transfer Portal Thread

[Orange.]

They pushed it to the Summer meeting, according to reports.

If so, that would nix "Free Bargo" for the rest of this season.

PG: Budd Clark

SG: Ryan Conwell

SF: Alex Chaikin

PF: Elyjah Freeman

C: Felix Okpara

6: Jordan Marsh

7: JP Estrella

8 Cade Phillips

9: Amari Evans

10: Dewayne Brown


Let’s ride

Clark and Marsh would be nice.

I really hope we get 2 PGs from the portal. One that can start, and one that can step into the starting role the following season.

This would fit that, and both are ballers.

Seems like we are getting in on the portal action early this year whereas last year not so much.

Lots of big players we are going after too

I think one thing that last couple of years of portal action has shown. Get offensively talented/gifted players and teach them defensive concepts.

Another nice thing about the two I mentioned is they both average 2.0 steals per game

Mackenzie Mgbako entered the portal. Wonder if he’s someone we would be interested in?

Taco Bell locations be warned

A bit different when you have 3 returners haha

Rod seems to be the one that develops the closest relationships with players and is lead recruiter. He was fundamental on Knecht and Chaz.

similar to Coach Oliver before him.

But do we know how the scouting responsibilities are shared? Never heard it talked about much.

Supposedly Gainey is the superior scout on staff

Saw a guy from on.3 on Finebaum today. He stated that the dollars to get/keep players are rising exponentially this year. Whereas budgets at the big basketball schools might have $3 to $4 million last year, there will be a number of schools spending anywhere from $8 to $12 million on the roster this year. Absolutely crazy.

I wonder if you will start seeing some schools save their money for a few years and then go all in once every 3 or 4 if it’s going to take that much coin to be successful.

Does UT have interest in Quimari Peterson from ETSU? He was terrific for the Bucs this past year

Ranked No. 9 in portal by 247 and 11th by On3. Florida is reportedly among 30+ high-major programs that've reached out to him, not sure about UT.

What about Jalil Bethea Freshman PG from Miami. With the turnover at Miami he's one I'd be interested in.

 

[Hoosier_Vol]

I have officially entered my work portal

 

[PowerT.]

We got a prediction for somebody from a on3 insider but I can’t see who the player is… anyone know?

 

[Milehigh_Vol]

The Freeman kid from LMU is intresting. Could have traction there.

Given those names, what is your ideal class of transfers?
