🚨Tulane Green Wave Commit🚨
🏀Point Guard🏀
Krystian Lewis- @LewisKrystian
6-3/185
Monroe, LA
As a sophomore in 2025-26 at ULM (Sun Belt Conference), he started all 32 games, led the Warhawks in scoring (18.4 PPG), assists (3.2 APG, team-high), and steals (1.4 SPG, team-high), while adding 4.5 RPG. He posted 15 games of 20+ points (including a career-high 33 vs. Arkansas State) and showed flashes of high-level production against Power-conference competition.
Scouting Report:
Shot Creation & Scoring:
Three-level scorer who excels at pull-up mid-range, step-back threes, and driving to the paint. High usage rate on a rebuilding ULM team; he averaged 19.6 PPG in some tracked samples with strong efficiency in bursts (33 PTS on 10/19 FG + 10/10 FT). Can get hot quickly, multiple 30+ point games.
Playmaking:
True point guard instincts at times. Averaged 4.3 APG in JUCO and 3.2 at ULM (team-high). Good vision on steals-to-pushes and kick-outs. Not a pure pass-first PG but makes the right read in flow.
Shooting:
Career 31-35% from three (volume shooter, needs consistency). Elite free-throw shooter (84.1% at ULM, 87.7% in JUCO). Draws fouls at a high rate (frequent 10+ FTA games; 17/18 career-best).
Efficiency Notes:
FG% hovers in the mid-30s to low-40s depending on level (36.2% at ULM). Shot selection and decision-making improved over the year.
JUCO (Pearl River CC, 2024-25):
15.5 PPG, 4.3 APG, 3.7 RPG on 42.1/31.3/87.7 shooting (All-MACCC Second Team).
Defensive Game:
Active on-ball and help defender. Team-high 1.4 SPG at ULM; instincts lead to deflections and transition opportunities.
Solid lateral quickness and length for a guard, can guard 1-3 positions. High motor; doesn’t take plays off.

🚨Tulane Green Wave Commit🚨
🏀Combo Guard🏀
Ryan Blount- @ryan1blount
6-6/205
Oviedo, FL
Scouting Report:
Elite Scorer with Versatility
Blount is a three-level scorer who dominated D2 competition with a well-rounded offensive arsenal.
Shooting:
One of the best volume shooters in D2. Shot 41.0% from three on 6.7+ attempts per game (77 made in 2025-26) with a quick, repeatable release. Excels at spot-up threes, pulling up off the dribble, and shooting contested looks. Also strong from mid-range with pull-ups and floaters. Career 3PT% hovers around 41%.
Finishing & Rim Attack:
Physical driver who attacks closeouts hard. Uses his body to finish through contact and draws fouls at a high rate. Elite cutter who finds seams in defenses for easy buckets.
Playmaking & Creation:
Improved significantly as a sophomore (3.1 APG). Makes smart, unselfish decisions and can run some offense in half-court sets or transition. Not a primary ball-dominant creator yet, but his vision and IQ allow him to facilitate effectively.
Rebounding:
Outstanding for his position, 7.3 RPG (including strong offensive rebounding). Crashes the glass with tenacity and converts second-chance opportunities.
Transition:
Lethal in the open floor. Scores in transition with speed, vision, and finishing ability.

Tulane Green Wave 🏀
Rebuilding the Backcourt Through the 2026 Transfer Portal.
The NCAA transfer portal window for men’s basketball slammed shut on April 21, 2026, leaving the Tulane Green Wave with a dramatically reshaped roster heading into the 2026-27 season.
Under head coach Ron Hunter, who enters his eighth year at the helm, the program endured a wave of high-profile departures while landing three impactful perimeter pieces, including two proven scorers and a sharpshooting wing, to inject scoring, shooting, and size into a backcourt that lost its star.
Tulane finished the 2025-26 campaign at 18-15 overall, earning a spot in the American Athletic Conference Tournament but ultimately falling short of deeper postseason aspirations.
The portal activity reflects the new reality of college basketball: elite talent moves quickly, and programs must adapt on the fly.

Tulane Green Wave 🏈 🚨Walk-On Spotlight🚨 Quarterback Dagan Bruno- @BrunoDagan A redshirt sophomore walk-on quarterback from John Curtis High School in New Orleans, had a very strong and eye-opening 2026 spring for the Tulane Green Wave. He entered spring as more of a scout-team guy (he redshirted in 2024 with no game action), but he consistently produced big plays, showed major improvement as a passer, and inserted himself into the quarterback competition. Key Highlights from Spring Practices and the Final Scrimmage (April 18, 2026) Scrimmage performance: Bruno went 5-of-5 for 69 yards, including a standout 40-yard touchdown strike on a go route/streak to wide receiver Antwaun Parham (prettiest pass of the day). He had a perfect 4-for-4 drive that ended in that TD to Parham. Overall spring: He made big plays in essentially every practice and showed “drastic leaps” in his development. Coach Will Hall and reporters noted he’s shedding the “option QB” label from his high school days (where he ran for over 500 yards and 8 TDs in his final season) and proving he’s a complete quarterback who can operate, throw accurately, make checks, and run effectively. Coach Will Hall’s Take Hall was effusive in his praise: “Dagan has really come on this spring, and given us another weapon back there. It’s a guy that can really operate, extremely accurate, and really good runner as well.” “Dagan Bruno is a college football player, and you can win with Dagan Bruno… Dagan can play. I’m so proud of Dagan. I love his competitive spirit. He’s a tough guy, a winner and a leader.” Where He Stands in the QB Room Kadin Semonza and transfer Zeon Chriss-Gremillion remain the clear frontrunners (they wore no-contact jerseys all spring), but Bruno (along with early enrollee Trace Johnson) turned heads enough that fall camp could feature a legitimate four-way competition. Hall has said they’ll eventually narrow the reps from six QBs down to four, and Bruno has earned real consideration. In short, Bruno went from depth-chart afterthought to a legitimate weapon and potential starter candidate this spring. Local fans (especially Curtis alums) have plenty to be excited about heading into the fall. #RollWave

I love seeing this action from Tulane; better late than never
Tulane Tailgate@TailgateTulane
Boom! Tulane’s lands a commitment from ULM transfer guard Krystian Lewis. As a sophomore, he averaged 18.4 points, 4.5 rebounds, 3.2 assists, and 1.4 steals per game. He also posted a season-high 33 points against Arkansas State while shooting 52% from the field.

BOOM! Tulane lands a commitment from University of Tampa transfer Ryan Blount. Ryan averaged 21 points and 7 rebounds per game while shooting 41% from three. He drew interest from USF, Temple, and Colorado State out of the portal. He holds a 90 rating as a transfer prospect.

The transfer portal window officially closes tonight at midnight for men’s basketball players.
There are currently 2,541 entries.
My guess is about 150 are walk-ons and another 200 aren’t currently eligible.
