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

[DA#23]

Sounds like UConn might get Demary

Cal could have just paid Darnell in weed.

We've had some smokers at UK, but that dude stayed high.

Lamb did, too. My friend bought from a guy up there who kept a special premium stash that he only sold to Doron.

[George]

My dad used to always say Davis deserved $10 million.

I’d gladly pay $1omil for a championship if I had it.

[KCKUKFan]

A 6'7" three-point specialist rumored to be as deadeye as Dodson was rumored to be would probably command at least a mil now. At least.

I mean Auburn's in the Final Four with two D2 transfers in their rotation. You best believe if they had a chance to pick up 6'7" Dodson from the JUCO ranks they would've jumped at it.

Its forgotten now, but Dodson had some HUGE games at Kentucky, especially early in the year.

[KCKUKFan]

Watch Bama coming on strong for Yaxel.

Little-known fact: if not for Darnell Dodson, Kentucky loses to Miami (OH) in John Wall's first ever game as a Wildcat.

I think Dodson annoyed the crap out of Cal as the season went on, not as much with his play but just his personality.

Watch Bama coming on strong for Yaxel.

Folks are saying someone on the Discord made up the Bama rumor to mess with the Kentucky feed, then Drew Franklin saw it and ran with it on-air.

Who knows? UK and Michigan have been the top two names over the last week or so, though, with Auburn seen as third.

This guy right here has the potential to be a real problem for whoever gets a commitment. Because that's gonna go down to the absolute wire, and there's a really good chance he just breaks your heart and decides to go pro. I'm convinced he's a first-rounder.

I'll be happy if Kentucky gets him...but this thing is freighted with risk.

I'm sure I've told this story, but I'll tell it again.

A friend of mine had class with Dodson. One day, Dodson rolls in 45 minutes late, and the prof. sorta stopped in the middle of lecture and stared at him as he made his way to his seat. Dodson says, "Sorry teach. Had to finish my dynasty," referring to the NCAA Football video game, lol.

It's worth the risk, but yes, he could very easily bail for the NBA at the last minute. Have to hope that the staff builds relationships with other guys who are testing the waters and are prepared to pivot to someone who withdraws, because at that point those guys would be the only high-quality names remaining in the portal.

That's also why I'm not freaking out about things, as of now. There will be a whole slew of talented dudes who want to go pro, but can't. They'll need somewhere to play.

When the final four is finished, players involved on those teams will announce their future plans. That will energize the portal and we will see players being signed.

Auburn and Duke are going to lose most every contributor. Florida, most. Houston is always a wildcard with their roster but guys like L.J. Cryer and J'Wan Roberts have been around since Hakeem played there. (Honestly, Cryer played for Baylor what feels like 20 years ago.)

[Joneslab]

AJ Storr, a beast at Wisconsin two years ago and one of the biggest busts in the portal last season at Kansas, is back in the portal.

A lot of folks are trying their hardest to will Milos Uzan into the portal. I don't see it happening, but I'd take him.

Oh, heck yeah. Will be an all-conference player for somebody next season.
