Doesn't the Big 12 get a season of Texas and Oklahoma with Houston, Cincy and UCF? I thought they were joining as of June or July 1st of 2023.

Yes. What I listed was the 2024 group which sees Houston, Cincy, UCF and BYU replacing Texas and Oklahoma.  Overall I think that’s a net loss in basketball.  Not sure how BYU, UCF and Cincy will compete.

They're talking about transfers. Just schools instead of players. ;)

Very minor news, but Wilhelm Breidenbach will be taking his goggles with him and transferring from Nebraska.

Damn, felt like he was a year away from being a solid piece....Nebrasketball is going to Nebrasketball, I guess.

FWIW, they've brought in a solid group of transfers this year -- 247 ranks their incoming transfer group as 25th best.  They've brought in Rienk Mast (Southern Illinois, 13.8 ppg, 8.0 rpg), Brice Williams (Charlotte, 13.8 ppg, 5.3 rpg), Ahron Ulis (Iowa, 6.1 ppg, 2.1 apg), and Josiah Alick (New Mexico, 8.4 ppg, 7.3 rpg).  Downside is that they have to replace Derrick Walker and Sam Griesel, but IMO Nebraska could finish in the upper half of the Big Ten next year.

Agree, honestly I thought coming into the '22-'23 season they wouldn't be playing on Wednesday of the Big Ten Tourney - but here we are.  My N=1 thoughts, it feels like Hoiberg has lost his fastball, and they may have been better off with riding it out with Miles.

Isaac Mushila, Texas A&M Corpus Christi enters the portal.  6’5” wing who rebounds like a demon.  14.5 points, 9.9 reb.  Shot 37.5% from three in low volume (37.5% on 15 of 40 attempts).

Three.  Played two years, would get a Covid year.

EDIT:  actually one year and not three.  Started his career at a JUCO

Jordan Dingle training in Noblesville. Might be worth his time to maybe pop his head in down south for a day or 2.

I think he’s got the athleticism to be a fine team defender, at least. That was my one concern here.

Didn’t know much about him before he popped up in the portal. Was hoping he could provide a Mike Smith/Michigan sort of contribution. Nah, he’s a good bit better than that.

He had limited portal choices because he only looks good in orange.

No idea but they’d almost have to be better from a dead cat bounce

Kebba Njie follows Shrewsbury to Notre Dame.

FWIW, I still think Jaylin Sellers of Ball State is a viable option should would not get Dingle or Dennis.  Excellent shooter and is more athletic than you would think.  Certainly can come in and give minutes at the 2.
