Groundbreaking NCAA Rule Changes and Roster Shakeups: Previewing the 2025-26 College Basketball Season
Good evening, basketball fans! I'm coming to you with all the latest buzz from the college basketball world as we look ahead to the 2025-26 season.
The transfer portal has been absolutely wild these past few days! Just last week, we saw Doctor Bradley, a talented 6-8 power forward, commit to Arkansas-Pine Bluff. And if you missed it, Justin McBride, another solid 6-8 power forward, has decided to take his talents to Nevada. These moves are going to shake up both programs significantly next season.
But the biggest news isn't about who's going where—it's about how the game itself might change. The NCAA Men's Basketball Rules Committee has proposed some major changes aimed at enhancing the flow of the game. Word is they're seriously considering switching men's basketball to four quarters instead of two halves! This would bring the men's game in line with the women's format and international rules.
The committee is also focusing on eliminating delay-of-game tactics that have become increasingly frustrating for fans. They're looking to limit the time officials spend reviewing plays at the monitor—something I know we can all appreciate. Nothing kills momentum like endless replay reviews!
Teams across the country are reshuffling their rosters through transfers and incoming recruits. If you've been keeping score, over 90 major programs have seen significant roster changes in the past few weeks. Players leaving, players joining—it's a whole new landscape for many powerhouse programs.
Meanwhile, at the Division III level, Christopher Newport University continues to build on their impressive athletic tradition. They've produced more than 725 All-Americans throughout their history and have won over 80 national team and individual titles. They consistently maintain the highest winning percentage among all Virginia universities—quite an accomplishment!
As summer approaches, coaches are finalizing their schedules and strategy for next season. The rule changes, if approved, would mark one of the most significant shifts in college basketball in years. The emphasis on improving game administration and creating a smoother viewing experience could transform how we experience college hoops.
For players entering the portal, these next few weeks will be crucial as they find new homes and prepare for the upcoming season. Teams are still assembling their final rosters, with coaches looking to fill specific needs before summer workouts begin.
That's all for now, but stay tuned as more developments unfold in the ever-changing world of college basketball. The 2025-26 season is already shaping up to be one for the record books!
