The Miami Hurricanes had a disappointing 2023-24 college basketball season, and now coach Jim Larranaga will have to rebuild without Norchad Omier or Wooga Poplar after the two stars entered the NCAA transfer portal on Thursday. Kyshawn George won't be of help either as he is keeping his name in the 2024 NBA draft, putting the 'Canes in a tough spot as they look to compete in the ACC.
Sticking with the ACC, Louisville and new coach Pat Kelsey have added eight big time players in the transfer portal, the latest being former Wisconsin point guard Chucky Hepburn. Joining Hepburn will be Koren Johnson from Washington, J'Vonne Hadley from Colorado, Terrence Edwards from James Madison and Aboubacar Traore from Long Beach State. Will Kelsey be able to get the Cardinals into the NCAA Tournament in his first season?
We close the show discussing the Big 12 - Big East challenge, wondering why the three marquee matchups - Baylor vs UConn, Kansas vs Creighton, and Marquette vs Iowa State - are all on the same day, and why Houston drew Butler and Texas Tech drew DePaul.
