The Next Gen crew — Ani Umana, Jamie Shaw, and Joe Tipton — break down the most impressive freshmen in college basketball after week one, including standout performances from Caleb Wilson, Koa Peat, and Darryn Peterson. They debate who’s really leading the 2026 NBA Draft race between AJ Dybantsa and Peterson, and why this freshman class might be one of the best ever. The team also dives into major recruiting intel, from Cam Williams’ upcoming commitment to the top programs climbing in the class rankings. Plus, they reveal why Arkansas and Missouri are quietly building powerhouse futures.
