2025-26 Roster Chatter (UPDATE: Oweh Returns, Roster Complete)

[George]

Might need to dream bigger, Perry for one.

The House v. NCAA settlement, which resolved a lawsuit regarding compensation for college athletes, includes new roster limits, with men's and women's basketball teams capped at 15 players each, alongside other sports having their own limits.

You talking about something coming up next week? If so, it involves revenue sharing, too, which is why we're seeing so many big names rushing to commit by the end of this week. If they do, they'll be grandfathered in, so to speak.

THATS what's supposed to happen on the 7th. The ruling. Revenue sharing up to 22% of school revenue with a 21 million dollar cap. Distributed to former players as well. Sounds like the first payout will be like a class action suit with all participants getting a couple hundred dollars. Counting all athletes in all sport in all schools...well..going FORWARD could be something to watch. Also starting April 7th all NIL agreements over 600 dollars have to be reported. (NCAA? IRS?).

[justford]

I was wondering about this....saw it yesterday but it was April 1st.

Oh well, kid had a change of heart...on to the next portal candidate

Or mission accomplished seeking more NIL money.

[Mr.Nezzer]

Money can change someone's heart😉

Graf reporting now that it's unlikely that Smith enters the portal.

[George]

Silas Demary supposedly down to St. John's, BYU, and UConn. If he and Braden are both off the table, the PG options are suddenly pretty lackluster. May have to start thinking about guys who will remove their names from the draft.

Watched this guy a number of times. I don’t know if he’d have a break out year or not….

Yikes.

[GOCAT15]

Any updates on anyone on our current roster entering the portal?

[Bluesong]

Hello, I haven’t read through all the posts here but it looks like Pope is interested in this guy.

1. F Yaxel Lendeborg
Transferring from: UAB
The scout: The top dawg in the portal, Lendeborg is a 6-9 forward who can pass, dribble, shoot and defend. He's a matchup nightmare with power and finesse, fresh off a historic 30-20-8-0-4-5 stat line in the AAC tourney. Lendeborg is considering entering the 2025 NBA Draft, where he profiles as a fringe first-round pick. If he stays in college, he's a First Team talent in any league. Kentucky, Michigan, Auburn and Alabama are in the mix here.

Ok, Im a noob… I tried to upload the site information link and it didn’t show. Can someone help? I posted the link in “Upload URL” but it comes up blank.

I've seen some chatter of the kid from Illinois that had a good game against us. Boswell, maybe? But I don't think he's officially entered yet.

Yeah, Pope’s after him, and some say UK leads. Yaxel’s arguably the best in the portal, as of today.

UK is having another Zoom meeting with him tonight.

$2.5 million is the rumored number, we're going to have to spend money at some point.

It sounds like the gamble will be if he decides to stay in the draft.

For Yaxel? I’d say that’s way too low.
