Illinois stays aggressive on the international front with Stefan Vaaks, and North Carolina makes key moves both on the bench and the roster. Arizona adds important guard depth, UConn navigates both loss and retention with Eric Reibe and Silas Demary, and PJ Haggerty’s winding journey continues at Texas A&M, his fifth school in five years.Plus, Miami quietly stacks talent with two top-25 transfers, and St. John’s may have finally found its answer at point guard.
