He is going to be senior. I doubt he will get any NIL money.
I am not surprised Ratliff would enter the portal. I thought he would be one of the most likely to leave and try to find a spot where he could get more playing time.

Hopefully we can keep Todd Jones.
Karris Bilal to the portal
I guess we will basically have a whole new team. The transfer portal and NIL is one big cluster fâŚ

Fortunately I think Coach Q is built to thrive in the current environment. At least I hope so
I agree with this until we see different. In the landscape today, its what we have to expect. If we can get quality players in the portal ourselves, players leaving is a nonissue.
Joshua Lewis is entering the portal with a âdo not contactâ tag
Well, that is disappointing.
Was wondering when he would pop up. One of the better recruits Quannas was able to land. This program has become a complete embarrassment.

College athletics has become an embarrassment and the term amateur athlete is a joke

This program or the tampering thatâs allowed by the NCAA? If a player enters with a âdo not contactâ tag, that means the offer from their next school is already agreed upon before entering the portal.
This program. The tampering is disgusting, but it hasnât stopped our conference mates and instate peer programs from competing at a higher level than us. Just like baseball. Just like softball. Just like football.

Dont forget we also signed Christian Bernard. 
We need a few more 2/3 and 4/5 players
Just signed a 4/5. Dani Pounds from Tennessee Tech. Started his career at ODU
If we get to see the Senior Olajuwon sitting court side like he does at Rockets games, that will be the highlight of 2026.
Should I give enough credit to our marketing department in that hopefully theyâre working on leveraging 2 Dadâs who are celebrities in some sort of way that doesnât overshadow the young men??

The Dani Pounds signing seems to be a good one and definitely fills a need.
I think you just want to see Senior Olajuwon do the Cupid shuffle at halftime.
