Pop Isaacs, a talented and dynamic backcourt presence, is expected to make an immediate impact at his new school. What makes the move even more intriguing is that Isaacs was originally committed to transferring to Kelvin Sampson's Houston Cougars.

With only 26% of last year’s minutes returning, including backcourt standouts J.J. Starling and Donnie Freeman, the Orange have leaned heavily on transfers and incoming freshmen to reshape the roster ahead of 2025-26.
