Welcome to Episode #80 of the No Conference for Old Men Podcast.
This is our 1st offseason episode of season three. And just as in the previous two years, the 3 old men discuss the major portal commitments and roster decisions made after one week of the portal season. The Houston coaching staff clearly had a plan and executed it well, retaining all three top returning players and identifying and locking down four impact portal additions.
The coaching staff has constructed a roster that will be rich in offensive firepower and size, deep in D1 experience, and back to the “Dawg Mentality” that was missing this past season. Add two elite freshmen into the mix, and UH has the potential recipe for another run for the Final 4 and a national championship next year.
So we’ll kick things off with our thoughts on the transfer portal additions: Thomas, Gillespie, Hadnot, and East. Then take a look at how we each see rotations playing out going into next season. And then we’ll close things off by taking a quick look at how some of our counterparts in the XII fared so far in the Portal ahead of next season.
