Didn't we recruit him previously? Or just a familiar name for some reason?

There was a Tray Buchanan on the roster during Hendo's first two years as head coach. JUCO transfer guard who was injured much of his time as a Jack.

Yep thats probably it. Name seemed way to familiar.

Seems to have respectable stats in Europe. If had stayed healthy, may have shown that here.

Summary of portal. Midwest ties are evident.

The roster seems to be in a good place with a nice mix of returning guys we know can play, experienced transfers who look to be at minimum rotational players in Haetle and Delzell, and a few high potential guys like Kerns and Burton we haven’t seen yet as wildcards. This feels like a team that will be picked 1 or 2 in the summit while coming off a major coaching change. Not a bad place to be. Do we have any more scholarship openings on the roster or are we now full?

[OldHare]

It appears there are 13 scholarship players with Cascio Jensen as a walkon.

I realize its not easy to replace the caliber of recruits we lost with South Dakota and Nebraska player of the year going to Drake. Will judge Peterson on what he brings in for 2026, but had hoped we could bring in some real D1 experience with all the players in the portal.

I haven’t followed the other SL teams, so I’m not sure what the peer group is up to. I’ll probably wait until November to figure it out.

Nine players stayed with the team from last year. Did Bryan think the players up front were fine?? I’m guessing Burton will play one position at times along with Delzel and perhaps Davis at the same position. But, I’m wondering about PG…is it Jackson or a combination of he and Garry and Saylor….even Buchanan?? Seems like we have solidified the roster quickly…was that partly because no other Div 1 talent was interested or does the coaching staff believe we have a great group…like to hear from that ‘little mouse’ what’s going on!!!

Whoops….forgot about Haertle…he will have the extra guard or wing activity…still don’t know about the PG prospects!

The Jacks and Omaha would appear to be in the best shape with 3 returning starters. The losses are big though with Oscar and Larson for us and Sutton and White for the Mavs. The two ND schools return two starters each, while St.Thomas, KC, USD and ORU all bring back one. Denver returns no one after the dumpster fire coaching situation. Lots of star power lost on the first and second all-Summit teams to the portal and graduation.

St Thomas had some big time portal additions. I think they will be the clear preseason favorites
