Potential 2025-26 Roster

Over the summer Donnie should pull some old tape on a couple of PF’s who played in the Dome back in 1987 and 1996. He needs to add some interior grit and shot blocking to his game, and expand the offensive weaponry. The kid oozes talent and potential. Just needs a really strong off season to get his body ready and his skills rounded out. I can’t wait to see him back on the court.
I do think this was a major reason for him coming back. His role at the next level will be a spacer and good rebounder. His shot is beautiful and that he can make it while his space is crowded about anywhere is a plus.

And who better to teach him about scoring at the next level than Mr. Anthony? As a matter of fact, Petar could learn a lot from him too. Melo was one of the all time greatest scorers in international history. He and KD together were unstoppable.

I know it’s still early but we really need to see at least one or two portal commits by the end of next week. The top targets will go early. We can’t be in a situation like we were last year where we were picking over leftovers to build a roster.

I don’t agree with that. The earlier you sign someone the higher chance you overpay. It’s not like guys are coming off the board and there’s still players not in the portal yet that are playing.

There’s only 16 teams playing (maybe add a few more if you in NIT, etc). Chances are we’re not building our roster from those teams outside of 1 or 2 guys.

I’m not saying the roster needs to be finished next week, just a commit or two.

I am not saying we will, but it adds to the population of players available and drives down market costs.

Haven't we seen the opposite the last couple years? We waited too long and ended up driving up the price because we were desperate.
 
I’m thinking Quincy Ballard will be our starting center with Kyle as the backup.
That is a pretty great Center combo and makes the whole Petar situation understandable. I want Petar to stay, but if he's looking at Quincy, William, Donovan and Sadiq blocking his PT, I get his reluctance to sign off on this.
 
Kyle is just the start folks

Stands right now

Portal/Fennell
JJ/Anthony
Portal/Womack
Freeman/Kyle/White
Portal/Kyle/Petar

Then I also think we take another portal wing 2/3 type. 4 more portal players I think for a total of 5.
slight change just for visual
 
I've really not followed college basketball closely in a while, who are the best players that we're going after in the portal? Are we in the running for any game changers?

We already in Kyle, White, and Donnie have more athletic ability then anytime in the last 10 years. That at least is a good start in being able to pressure, and possibly run a fast break.
Maybe get a few turnovers and run outs for layups.
