Transfer Portal 2025

Randomly happened to see an article about the transfer portal for NCAA men's basketball: over 1150 players in the first two days!!

Makes sense. There's a lot of programs, and most of them have 15 or so people on the roster. Teams play 8 or 9 of them. The rest likely don't have all that much loyalty, unless it's their dream program. Those that play but don't start likely think they should start. Those that start at a program that isn't making them rich hope another program will. The people who have everything going their way keep one eye on the NBA. Even the coaches don't stay in one place to the extent that they did 40 years ago. As a fan, it's hard to form much of a connection to an NCAA MBB program these days, unless you're a fan of that school, period.
 
Out of the five MN Ms. Hockey finalist below for the award last year, only Lindzi Avar with 21 points, (15 G, 6 A) had a significant immediate impact for her college team.
The rest mostly played in limited roles. Crazy how competitive and difficult it can be to break through and adjust to the college game especially in the WCHA.

Kate Kosobud - Minnesota
Lindzi Avar - Cornell
Ilsa Lindaman - St Thomas
Ayla Puppe - Minnesota
Josie St. Martin - Ohio State
