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

Stojakovic’s agent is almost unbelievably named Drake U’u.

Some Euro basketball account makes a prediction of Dame Sarr to Kentucky College.

Love that place. Might ask them for a juris doctorate.

Which is actually kind of a positive because that account has nailed a few other picks and referred to every school as ______ College. Probably an ESL thing.

You would expect West Virginia decommit Braydon Hawthorne to commit today on his visit, I guess.

Would likely be a very end of the bench player but not sure he'd be anything more than that right away. Has GREAT size.

This would be a nice addition imo. He’s a guy the staff could develop and work with. His build is almost Tayshaun Prince - esque.

KSR has a post about him, hope to see a commitment soon.

Ament to Tennessee?

Ament to Tennessee?

That's the word. Lame.

Houston looks like the one program that has hacked the portal era and is continuing with business as if it's the olden days.

KC's bestie Chad Baker-Mazara is in the portal, according to Goodman. Somehow that guy has more eligibility.

According to Goodman Baker-Mazara signed a contract with Auburn recently, so whoever gets him could get somebody embroiled in a weird legal battle.

He would be one of the oldest college basketball players since they were allowing players to come back and play after World War II.

Read he would be 26 when conference play begins.

Meanwhile, Baylor...hasn't.

What in the world is going on there? They literally have no roster. None. Zero players. Not a one.

Kentucky may have dodged an immense bullet there.

Kansas transfer and former Alabama guard Rylan Griffen will visit Kentucky this coming week.

Had a pretty mediocre year for Kansas last season, but was a big factor in Alabama's Final Four run two seasons ago.

Interestingly the only time Griffen played against Kentucky in Rupp, he led Alabama in scoring with 21. (In a game that Kentucky won big.)

Plus he's still recruiting out of high school pretty decent

Was wondering if Pope would take a look.

[KentuckyWild2020]

Glad to see Chandler return but honestly right now I could care less about Pope, Kentucky, or anything sports related 😆 🤣

I say this because the last two days I shoveled 5 tons of rock off the end of my drive way and moved it with awheel barrow. Then this morning push mowed 2.5 acres of grass since my riding mower is in the shop.

Needless to say, I got old man problems today but feeling accomplished 😆 🤣

[Joneslab]

Kansas was a mess last year and Griffen wasn't much of a factor in most games, but his best game of the season was against Houston. Looks like his second best game was probably against Michigan St. Had 19 in the Sweet Sixteen against North Carolina two years ago.

May be one of those players who's a gamer.
