Only 10 players listed so far. Most of the international players are not listed yet. Petkov, Makitan, Icke, Ledegen missing. One addition is Christian Trudic (Freshman from Chagrin Falls) Back to Top shabamon General User Member Since: 11/17/2006 Location: Cincinnati Post Count: 7,431 Status: Offline     RE: 2026-2027 Roster    Posted: 7/25/2026 8:46:47 AM  RufusCat09 wrote: Looks like they've updated the roster.

This group includes Pav, Hadaway, Sheldon, and Conners.

Isn't Hadaway playing pro ball in Europe somewhere? He is yeah. He could technically come back but if the miami message board post around march madness was true it would be pretty unlikely the staff brings him back.

They'd been the loudest opponents until yesterday. So it may be more headache than it's worth to try and bring back 5th year guys whose eligibility may only be temporary.

If anything, we were once linked to Matthew Mayes, a D2 transfer repped by the agency Mike Cifliku works for. He was waiting on a 5th year. Someone like Mayes feels more like a more realistic addition.

According to an interview I saw with a member of Congress, the act was gaining momentum without the support of the Big2. I suspect they decided to support it because they didn’t want to look weak. Appearing invincible is very important to these guys. The only BLSS Certified Hypocrite on BA "It is better to be an optimist and be proven a fool than to be a pessimist and be proven right."

What an awesome development, but please let’s not start three 6’1 guys again. Hopefully all the international guys are in tow as well. We’re just missing Siebe and Marin on campus from what it sounds like. KDA and Jack are arguably the best 1-2 in the league. Granted, they've never played a single second together, but on paper you have two of the best G5 PG's from last season now on the same team. An incredible stroke of luck we have found ourselves after a real poop show of a year. Kolton first off the bench. He actually probably won't be, but could likely play 6th man minutes. Which is huge now that Jack doesn't have to play 35 minutes a game (hopefully). And Jack can now re-assume true PG1 status, with KDA shifting to the natural 2 and really running the offense with the plethora of big wings and a solid 4/5 with Dusan and Simmons. Kuany, Siebe, Che, etc etc, etc run around and get buckets. Safety net in front of and behind you. Solid. Ultimately, I don't think the rest of the guys are affected *that much*, and this is clearly better situation for all to have a veteran like Jack run the offense for a team that is mostly thrown together the last few weeks and to have that reliance and assurance he can and has run this team at a high level - the biggest hurdle remains allocation of minutes, Boals putting it together and allowing an 8-10 man rotation to develop. I was bullish on this euro all-star team before, putting Jack back in the lead role... this is a Top 3 team. I'd love an outsiders view, because on paper... call me crazy... I think they get some #1 votes.

We can speculate on the euro players' cost, but overall this has to be in the $1.5-$2 million range with Pavs' return.

Did they re-allocate some discretionary funds? Been about a decade since I've looked at a university budget. They have money to repave the convo parking garage and decided to pay a bunch of europeans instead?
