  • Coaching Shake-Ups, Rule Changes, and Transfer Portal Chaos: College Basketball's Evolving Landscape

    Coaching Shake-Ups, Rule Changes, and Transfer Portal Chaos: College Basketball's Evolving Landscape
    Jun 4 2025
    What a whirlwind these past few days have been in college basketball. As the summer settles in, the sport remains anything but quiet. Coaching changes are the talk of the moment: North Florida’s Matthew Driscoll, after years leading the Ospreys, is taking his talents to Kansas State as an assistant. That’s a big move for both programs and adds another layer to Kansas State’s ambitions for the coming season.

    Meanwhile, the coaching carousel spun out a true surprise. Mike Bibby, the longtime Sacramento Kings guard, accepted the head coaching job with the Alabama State Hornets. No one saw that coming, and it instantly sent ripples across the college basketball world. The Hornets had a rough go last season, finishing 7-24, but Bibby brings a new energy. Eyes will be on him to see if his NBA experience can turn the program around.

    News from Saint Francis is bittersweet. The team just made their first NCAA tournament appearance since 1991, a feel-good story for the ages. Yet, less than a week after their exit, the school announced it would transition to Division III, driven by the new realities of collegiate athletics and revenue sharing. Rob Krimmel, who poured his heart into the program, announced his retirement in almost perfect sync with the school’s decision—a poignant end to a remarkable chapter.

    Across the country, Samford made a deft move by hiring Lennie Acuff away from Lipscomb. Acuff guided his last team to three consecutive 20-win seasons and an NCAA Tournament berth, and now he’s charged with keeping Samford’s momentum alive after the departure of Bucky McMillan.

    Off the court, the NCAA Men’s Basketball Rules Committee is looking to shake things up. They’re considering a major switch from halves to quarters, which would create a different rhythm to the game, and the introduction of a coach’s challenge system, a nod to making officiating more transparent and precise. There’s also talk of stricter officiating guidelines and a push for a smoother flow of play, all aimed at keeping the game fresh for athletes and fans alike.

    Of course, the transfer portal continues to churn, reshaping rosters almost daily. With players entering and finding new homes, team lineups for 2025 could look vastly different from last season. The dust is far from settled, but if these past few days are any indicator, college basketball’s future promises no shortage of drama, change, and compelling stories.

  • Groundbreaking NCAA Basketball Rule Changes Shake Up the Sport for 2025-26 Season

    Groundbreaking NCAA Basketball Rule Changes Shake Up the Sport for 2025-26 Season
    Jun 2 2025
    Hey basketball fans, I'm coming to you live with the latest buzz from the college basketball world. It's been quite an eventful few days in NCAA basketball, and there's plenty to talk about.

    The coaching carousel continues to spin as we're deep into the 2025 cycle. North Florida's Matthew Driscoll has just taken an assistant coaching position at Kansas State, joining a growing list of coaching changes. In fact, there have been 56 Division I men's basketball coaching changes this cycle alone, showing just how much movement we're seeing in the college ranks.

    But the biggest news that has everyone talking is the potential major rule changes coming for the 2025-26 season. The NCAA rules committee is seriously considering switching men's basketball from halves to quarters, bringing it in line with the women's game format. This would be a fundamental change to how men's college basketball flows and is experienced by fans.

    That's not all though. Both the men's and women's committees are looking at implementing a coaching challenge system. Imagine this - coaches would get at least one challenge per game that they could use for specific situations like out-of-bounds calls, basket interference, or whether a defender was in the restricted area. This is all about getting calls right while keeping the game moving.

    Speaking of pace of play, that's been a major concern, especially with those long stoppages near the end of games for reviews. The committees are determined to enhance the flow of the game, making it more enjoyable for fans while maintaining the integrity of officiating.

    Looking ahead to next season, bracketologists are already hard at work forecasting the 2025-26 field of 68. Despite all the portal movement and NBA draft entries, some things remain consistent. Purdue continues to be a model of consistency under Matt Painter. They've never been seeded worse than 5th since the 2015-16 season and have reached at least the second weekend in six of the last nine tournaments.

    What's remarkable about Purdue is how they've built their program. They're not landing lottery picks left and right. Instead, they're focused on player retention and development, succeeding as an old-school college basketball team in this new era of constant movement. This approach could earn them a preseason No. 1 ranking for 2025-26.

    So as we head into summer, keep an eye out for more coaching changes, rule adjustments, and roster movements. The college basketball landscape continues to evolve, but one thing remains constant – the passion and excitement that makes this sport so special.

  • Seismic Shifts Reshape College Basketball's Landscape: Prepping for the 2025-26 Season

    Seismic Shifts Reshape College Basketball's Landscape: Prepping for the 2025-26 Season
    Jun 1 2025
    It’s been a whirlwind in college basketball these past few days—a real turning point as the landscape continues to shift in preparation for the 2025–26 season. The off-season is usually filled with rumors and speculation, but this year it’s different; change is coming, and it’s coming fast.

    One of the biggest stories centers on the NCAA considering significant rule adjustments. For years, men’s college basketball clung to its traditional two-half format, a quirk that set it apart from the NBA and even women’s college hoops. Now, the rules committee is seriously debating a change to four quarters to match the women’s game. The main driver? Improving the pace and flow, reducing those endless late-game reviews that can drag a close finish into eternity. Coaches may soon get the power to challenge calls—think out-of-bounds plays or basket interference—a move that could add fresh strategy and keep games moving. The committee is meeting again in early June, and there’s a real sense this isn’t just talk; we could see men’s basketball looking noticeably different come next season.

    The coaching carousel hasn’t slowed down either. Fifty-six Division I programs have made coaching changes, a staggering number that proves just how tumultuous and competitive the landscape has become. One of the biggest surprises comes from North Florida, where Matthew Driscoll, long the face of Ospreys basketball, stepped down to take an assistant position at Kansas State. That’s a rare move for a head coach at a mid-major, but it speaks to the allure and resources of a high-major program. Meanwhile, Samford replaced Bucky McMillan with Lennie Acuff, fresh off an NCAA Tournament run with Lipscomb, and Saint Francis, despite celebrating their first tournament appearance since 1991, announced a move down to Division III. It’s a stark sign of the challenges smaller programs face in the era of revenue sharing and escalating costs.

    Behind the scenes, the transfer portal remains a frenzy. Top scorers and high-impact players are on the move, reshaping rosters and expectations everywhere. The mix of fresh coaching blood and player turnover means next season’s preseason rankings are anyone’s guess.

    No matter where you look, college basketball feels like it’s on the edge of a new era. Rule changes, sudden coaching shifts, and an ever-churning roster cycle—all signal a sport not just reacting to the times but racing ahead. Fans, buckle up. The 2025–26 season could be one of the most unpredictable and exciting in years.
