All Things 2026 Transfer Portal Thread





If Puke wants another national championship it needs to go into the portal for star potential and not just complementary players. Freshmen are not reliable under the pressure of one and done.
So, I think you are saying Blackwell would be a good fit for "Duke"? Amirite
 



Didn't play for IU last year, sounds like he was hurt and will have last year count as a redshirt
 







Here we go.....should be an interesting couple weeks.....I'm optimistic that Niko is going to go find some quality players to add to the guys that are returning.

I still hate all the roster churn but at least it is kind of exciting feeling like we have a coach now who is going to be able to retain guys and also draw in true difference makers from the portal.
 







So....... would you want him here?

Certainly wouldn't be my first (or second) choice but I guess we have to take who we can get. Let's see what happens. If last offseason is any indication, we won't have much advance notice of potential commits. During the Johnson era, there were a lot of posts about potential targets, visits, etc. The bad part of that from a coaching perspective is that we could see how often Johnson failed to land primary targets of interest.
 




I don't know much about the Tommies, but many others do.

Perfect Summit League player does a lot of work on the block at 6’2… trust me this won’t happen in Power 4… not real athletic or real fast that’s a reason why he left Nebraska.. in the Summit he was not fast or athletic.. incredible footwork on the block Mchale like but that will struggle to translate not great lift.. dude is a gamer play hard… struggled on D at times.. I will miss watching him.. interesting to see if his Offense translates.. I thought Rohde and Blue would struggle offensively when they moved up and they were bigger and more athletic than Janowski.. UST did a gear job with Janowski like with Rohde to post them up and isolate them on the block… that ain’t happening against the big boys..
 




He was the first player to declare for the 2026 transfer portal having declared his intention without playing a game for Princeton this season. He was the only player listed in the portal for months.

Minessale would be the only UST guy id be interested in. As he's from WI feels like we'd be out anyway on him so.
 

Minnesale if he had better handles could be like a Reynolds possibly…
