That meant it was going to be a crucial transfer portal cycle and head coach Greg Gard delivered, landing guard Nick Boyd, forward Austin Rapp, and wing Andrew Rohde early in the offseason.
Gard and his staff had spent a lot of time and effort strengthening the program’s resources this past season to better compete in the Name, Image, and Likeness (NIL) era. They quickly evaluated targets and brought them to campus on official visits, securing commitments from the trio of players above shortly after.
Boyd, a San Diego State transfer, is expected to be the starting point guard.
