In a college basketball world that currently has more than 1,200 players in the transfer portal, there was a refreshing announcement made at Eastern Kentucky University this morning.
The entire EKU team (minus those who no longer have eligibility) are returning for next season.
The Colonels just had a runner up finish in the CBI Tournament, finishing with a record of 23-14.
No spring portaling in this family! All the Colonels are coming back for what promises to be a fun @EKUHoops 2023-2024 season. GO BIG E. pic.twitter.com/dAHfOIkc2D
