The transfer portal is officially wide open, and UConn men’s basketball is feeling the ripple effect. In this emergency episode of The Hoops Cap, we break major portal news regarding Solo Ball, Jayden Ross, Aidan Mahaney, and Tarris Reed Jr. — including who’s testing the NBA Draft, who’s 50/50 on transferring, and who’s expected to enter the portal soon. We discuss how Dan Hurley and the staff are navigating a volatile portal landscape while preparing to supplement their monster freshman class for 2025-26. Whether it’s draft waters or transfer rumors, one thing is clear: the portal is now a prominent part of UConn’s future, and Hurley is built for it.

On today’s episode of The Hoops Cap, Co-Host's Mark Zanetto and Tee Baker  dive into the emotional and cultural impact of JuJu Watkins’ heartbreaking ACL injury and what it means for the future of women’s college basketball, especially in comparison to Paige Bueckers and Caitlin Clark. We preview UConn’s Sweet 16 showdown with Oklahoma, a dominant rebounding team and home to Raegan Beers, who famously chose OU over the Huskies. Can UConn’s frontcourt hold up? And in our final segment, we break down UConn’s evolving roster strategy as Geno pivots toward size, with portal targets like Serah Williams and international standouts Gandy Malou Mamel and Blanca Quiñonez. The Huskies are going big, and the women’s game might be shifting. Part of the Big East Energy Podcast Collective.
