Updated May 18, 2022
We currently have 3 scholarships available for the 2023 class. This, of course, will change as players commit to the 2022 & 2023 classes and as players come and go via the Transfer Portal (or leave early for the NBA Draft).
In Men's basketball, of course, you can have 13 on scholarship.
ONE ADDITIONAL THING TO MONITOR: due to covid-19, 2020-2021 was considered a "free year" by the NCAA, so, for example, seniors Luka Garza and Jordan Bohannon could have come back for the 2021-2022 season. Jordan did, of course. So, anyone listed below as Seniors could potentially play/graduate a year later than CURRENTLY expected; however, THEY COUNT towards the 13 scholarship limit.
