Just as I expected, Will Ryan is cleaning up UW Green Bay Basketball! They will be transitioning from a small ball, guard centric lineup. To the classic Bo Ryan swing offense. Most of the affletes leftover from previous regime entered the transfer pool. Leaving Ryan with some flexibility to rebuild this team to his liking. He's already landed 3 Wisconsin kids and 1 transfer from Belmont in Mitch Listau.( 3 of 4 gym rats)
Ryan is also rumored to be after Valpo's Jacob Ognacevic a 6'8 stretch 4 that shot 50% from 3 off the bench last year. He was a local standout in Sheboygan that got away.
Nice to see Ryan bring some common sense to the helm. UW Green Bay has seen a 50% decrease in attendance over last 5-7 years. Not good, it was time for a change from the guard centric ghetto ball.

Thanks for posting! I'll have to keep an eye out for ol' UWGB.
Here's a quick Big 10 offseason breakdown as it stands, which I've parsed from normie site MGoBlog
here and
here. You'll notice that more teams appear to be adding white players, but I think the conference on the whole will be hemorrhaging a lot of white star power. So, a net negative overall.
A tinge whiter:
At
Illinois, Brad Underwood signed his first white athlete, 3 star SG Brandon Podziemski, who is a scoring dynamo. Perhaps more importantly, Kentucky is bidding on two of Underwood's lead recruiters. Orlando Antigua recruited several Caribbean players, and Chin Coleman specialized in the mercenary cesspool that is Chicago high school basketball. Should they depart, their replacements could not be any less white-friendly.
Indiana will welcome wing Miller Kopp, a Northwestern transfer, and 4-star center Logan Duncomb. They also added assistant coach Dane Fife to the coaching staff from Michigan State, where he'd been the lead recruiter for many of their recent white players. Interesting hire by Mike Woodson - Fife is positioning himself to be the successor there.
Minnesota has brought in William & Mary guard Luke Loewe and D2 wing Parker Fox via transfer.
Nebraska has signed two freshman bigs and also a Japanese shooting guard via transfer.
Ohio State will add transfer Joey Brunk from Indiana, with Kyle Young and Justin Ahrens both returning.
Purdue signed 4* forward Caleb Furst, who was this year's Mr. Basketball in the state of Indiana.
About the same:
Northwestern loses Miller Kopp and adds one new white recruit, 3-star wing Brooks Barnhizer.
Penn State loses backup wing Patrick Kelly (Fordham transfer) but retains starting center John Harrar for a super-senior year. No white players coming or going from
Rutgers, but lots of other attrition there, so PG Paul Mulcahy could find himself carrying a much heavier load.
Wisconsin loses center duo Nate Reuvers and Micah Potter as well as backups Trevor Anderson and Joe Hedstrom. They've brought in guard Isaac Lindsey from UNLV on transfer and signed Matthew Mors and Marcus Ilver, both 3-star forwards. Brad Davison returns for a bonus year and may become a focal point.
Somewhat darker:
Iowa loses a lot of experience but has two white recruits in their class, bigs Payton Sandfort and Riley Mulvey. Hopefully, Joe Weiskamp stays in school to play lead dog next season.
Michigan returns Hunter Dickinson, but the only other white on the team will be freshman PF Will Tschetter.
Michigan State will be down to just Joey Hauser, losing Thomas Kithier and Foster Loyer to the transfer portal.
New Zealand rugby:
Maryland will be completely non-white again.
