Syd is now up to 11.2 PPG, and started the last two games. Yesterday at Dallas, she put up 18 points and had the best +/- on the team at +9. #Minutewoman

Happy birthday Derek Kellogg (see here with Chaz Williams and Raphiael Putney at the 2014 Selection Show watch party) umasshoops.com/wiki/doku.ph...

Happy birthday DHS. Best wishes for your next chapters in life!

Need some hoops fill for the summer? Follow the WNBA's Chicago Sky as former Minutewoman Sydney Taylor finally got her shot in the league. She's averaging 10.0 ppg so far. www.umasshoops.com/newboard/vie... cc @gwmyers.bsky.social

Hi @roccomiller8.bsky.social. I saw you mention on the other platform that the MAC will go 22-games. x.com/RoccoMiller8... Is that confirmed? I know its been rumored for a while now but haven't seen if they officially announced it.

UMass MBB will play in Springfield again this season, against another ACC opponent. Wake Forest is coming this year. We haven't face them since Tim Duncan was on their roster. umasshoops.com/wiki/doku.ph...

UMass Baseball was picked to finish last, by a mile, in the preseason poll. The fact that they're still in contention for the conference tournament going into the season's final weekend is a testament to how they've overachieved versus expectations. #LetsGoUMass

Need some off-season content? A new Just Being Frank dropped today. They do a deep dive on our 3 additions from the Portal: Jordan Clayton from Northwestern Junjie (Barry) Wang from San Francisco Abdullah (Bido) Ahmed from BYU & the G League www.youtube.com/watch?v=3Dll...

UMass added another portal player: 6'9 240 F Junjie Wang, who just finished year 3 with San Francisco. umassathletics.com/news/2026/5/... www.sports-reference.com/cbb/players/... At U San Fran, he played for coach Chris Gerlufsen, whose father Ron was UMMBB's coach in the mid 80s.

My bad. Camby’s Portland Trailblazers bobble. Aware that some are on eBay. Still seeking somebody who already has one.

Anyone got a Marcus Camby UMass bobblehead? Can you loan it to the documentary producers? I can put you in touch with them.

UM announced a portal signing: Abdullah Ahmed, 6'10" Center from Egypt He played at BYU last season, becoming eligible after the Fall semester. And this is a first for UM: Ahmed has two seasons of G League experience. 👀 UM's announcement: umassathletics.com/news/2026/5/...

Happy birthday Tyrone Weeks umasshoops.com/wiki/doku.ph...

30 years ago today: Marcus Camby declares for the NBA Draft. umasshoops.com/wiki/doku.ph... He went on to be the #2 overall pick in one of the best drafts ever. After a 17-year NBA career, Camby returned to finish his UMass degree.

A little odd how this dropped ~6 weeks after the season end, but still a good read on Marcus and his journey...

Reported by @andrewsamaha.bsky.social over on the hellscape... Donovan Brown has entered the portal in hopes of winning an appeal for a fifth year. Brown did well in D-II in '24-25 but didn't hit here, getting a total of 89 minutes, spread over 16 games. www.sports-reference.com/cbb/players/...

Maybe TPG can help get more than 8 different commercials into the rotation during UM game broadcasts (run by Learfield). "Hey, you ever wish you had a pub you could call home? Well how 'bout this?" That has been seared into my brain.

UMMBB has picked up a portal addition: Jordan Clayton, who just finished his junior year with Northwestern. Clayton comes home to MA, being a native of Medford. The 6-2 point guard could be a backup for Danny Carbuccia, assuming of course we retain Danny. www.sports-reference.com/cbb/players/...

With yesterday's news of K'Jei Parker doing the in-conference transfer, we've updated our '26-27 page, including some reports of non-conference game dates. Give us a shout if you see anything we missed. umasshoops.com/wiki/doku.ph...

Breaking: Yale's Athletic Director to resign after recent news of a toxic culture within the department. Yale administration is expected to announce current UMass Athletic Director Ryan Bamford as Yale's next AD. www.foxnews.com/sports/yale-...

I’m gonna sound like an old guy or whatever but… Seeing a lot of players entering the portal for the 2nd/3rd/4th time who had solid seasons this year. Perhaps they had a good year cuz they were at the right place?

30 years ago today: UMass vs Kentucky in the Final Four. We came up short, 81-74, but that whole season was quite a ride and one those of us who were around for it will never forget. umasshoops.com/wiki/doku.ph...

Which March Madness coach was most likely to have stormed the Capitol? ca.sports.yahoo.com/news/grant-l...

Good news for UMWBB as Coach Leflar has been extended. In his three seasons, he took the Minutewomen from an almost full rebuild to a 23-7 campaign. umassathletics.com/news/2026/3/...

Congrats to Leo Bettiol for getting named All-Tournament Team. He shot 18-27 (67%) from the floor in our two games, and averaged 23 points and 7 rebounds. He was the only honoree whose team wasn't in the championship game. getsomemaction.com/news/2026/3/...

Any whining from Travis Steele about being relegated to the First Four?

Folks, we are going to the Garden. Last place two months ago

OK I see now why he was out for so long. He was a -23. Frank's been vocal about it all season. Just can't defend effectively.

Always a bummer when the season ends, but I need an 8-month break from hearing these same ~10 commercials.

UM can't catch up, falls 77-67, finishing the season 17-16. Toledo moves on to the championship game, capitalizing on .574 shooting. UM just 4-21 (.190) from 3 and 11-21 (.524) from the stripe. UM's defense just not tight enough, contrasting a season where they led the conference in fouls.

Banks has to come out of this game. He's been fairly bad today. Parker was doing some good things.

Bettiol FINALLY checks back in with 3:03 left.

Bettiol being on the bench so long, with 0 fouls, is absolutely mind-boggling. That lineup we just had was a near-zero offensive threat. 72-61 with 3:36 left.

UM choosing today not to foul / not play aggressive D. Toledo still above 60%+ from the field, now .617 UM only 2 fouls this half. MUST get more disruptive. 70-60 with 6:39 left.

Toledo was already shooting well in H1, and they've upped it. Shooting 8-11 (.727) this half and now at .641 on the game. Time to play some damn defense, UMass. Timeout as Frank can't let it get any worse. 61-46.

Very streaky H1 for UMass Started on the wrong side of a 13-2 score Went ahead 27-26 Gave up an 8-1 run to go into halftime 43-34 Toledo at the break UM not fouling too much, but also not playing aggressive D. UT shooting 61% from the floor.

DHS taking multiple 3s so far is not the offense we want.

CBSSN with multiple errors on the UMass line

Frank pregame interview... Quick turnaround nothing new, we did it in November's MTE. Ndjigue stepped up with a sense of urgency, energy, toughness, aggression. Really happy for him. DHS a little sore, as expected. He was shut down at the end of the regular season to be ready for this week.

Reminder: Mute the generic announcers on CBS Sports Network and fire up @jayburnham.bsky.social and Adam on the Varsity feed. Pre-game already going. #HomerIsBest thevarsitynetwork.com/audioapplink...

Minutewomen can maybe take a little solace that Toledo won again today, this time taking out 2-seed and regular season co-champ Ball State. getsomemaction.com/news/2026/3/...

The 2025-26 UMass MBB super fan is officially logging on.

Miami WBB plays their #MACtion semifinal at 10 AM today. Anyone know if coach Glenn Box has been complaining about how they weren't protected?

Great to see Jayden got the honor of putting our sticker on the bracket board. Dude had the best game of his career. Video courtesy of the MAC.

Folks, even the finance bots know how big of an upset today was.

UNDEFEATED NO MORE 😮 UMass hands Miami (OH) its first loss of the season‼️

Somewhere, @lukeybonner.bsky.social is smiling down on us* after UMass Basketball ended Miami (OH)'s perfect season. *Because he's a 7-footer
