It’s officially transfer portal season.
That means college basketball programs all across the nation — including Utah and BYU — are looking to retool their rosters. The portal officially opened up on April 7 and will close on April 21.
The Cougars and head coach Kevin Young are coming off a disappointing first-round exit in the NCAA Tournament after a season in which they went 23-12 and 9-9 in the Big 12. BYU came into the season with Final Four expectations with five-star forward and No. 1 recruit AJ Dybantsa on the roster.
Utah is coming off one of its worst seasons in the last decade, finishing with a 10-22 mark and a last-place 2-16 record in the Big 12. It was Alex Jensen’s first year on the job, and now he’ll look to accelerate the Runnin’ Utes rebuild with a successful run in the portal.
