UC among the many schools to show interest in Oklahoma State standout Javon Small, who finally entered the portal today (per Jamie Shaw)

Small to West Virginia

Mark Pope is rebuilding UK into BYU East, as far as offensive emphasis is concerned. He's brought in Brea (#1 trey shooter in the country last season) and Kriisa (42%). Add in running the offense through Aly Khalifa at the high post and away they go.

Kerr Kriisa to Kentucky

This makes it even easier to root against Kentucky.

I saw this rumor yesterday and it was allegedly debunked -- but then caught a portion of the BCJ BBP podcast last night and the way Chad B spoke about things, didn't sound overly optimistic about UC (so perhaps it is TOSU and G'Town either way/nonetheless).

First it would be interesting to see who the source was. Second, NIL is the name of the ame and usually it comes before a coach and other things : From Bucknuts ($)
"I think it may come down to Ohio State and Georgetown for him," one source indicated. "I'm not sure Cincinnati would have enough NIL money to sway him. Georgia Tech may also be in the running for a visit as well."

@AdamJardy
Friendly reminder everyone that the transfer portal closes for men's college basketball at 11:59 p.m. TONIGHT. Players cannot enter it after that point and be eligible for next season, but they do not have to commit anywhere by that deadline to be eligible to play.

Add Jamarii Thomas to the list, a 6'0" PG from Norfolk St. He's a high usage distributor who gets to the line, makes 39% from three, and is a good defender.

VCU for Thomas

Yohan Traore is in the portal 6’11 C that’s a former UC target . 5 star that started at Auburn and is currently at UC Santa Barbara.

SMU for Traore

Kansas State forward Arthur Kaluma plans to enter the transfer portal, sources confirmed to ESPN. First by @JonRothstein. Averaged 14.4 points and 7.0 rebounds this past season, shooting 34.5% from 3-point range - all career-highs. Began his career with two seasons at Creighton.

Minnesota transfer guard Elijah Hawkins has committed to Texas Tech, he tells @On3sports. Was also looking at Kentucky.

The 5-11 junior averaged 9.5 points and 7.5 assists per game this season.

Yeah, this came from an OSU troll. Even if he doesn't pick us, it's wrong.

Glad to hear that.

I just read that Stewart is down to tOSU and Georgetown.

Yeah, this came from an OSU troll. Even if he doesn't pick us, it's wrong.

Saw Illinois senior Coleman Hawkins is hitting the portal -- guy loves Illinois, this surprises me. I wonder if we'll see a bunch of kids do the same right before the deadline just in case.

Hawkins clarified that he's staying in the draft and is in the portal just in case he gets bad feedback from the NBA guys. He graduated.
