Knecht Candidates: Who is 2024-25's Dalton Knecht? | Realignment Primer | MJ Rice / Ernest Ross out at NC State

Locked On College Basketball

Dalton Knecht burst onto the college basketball scene in 2023-24 and carried Rick Barnes’ Tennessee team at times. Knecht’s rapid ascension to stardom was a blast to watch – from JUCO to Northern Colorado to Tennessee to the Lakers. The question now – who will follow the same path next season? Who are the Knecht Candidates in 2024-25 – players going from a mid-major to power conference team that will blow and potentially even land in the first round of the 2025 NBA Draft? Host Isaac Schade gives nine candidates including Chaz Lanier (North Florida to Tennessee), Tucker DeVries (Drake to West Virginia), and Zeke Mayo (South Dakota State to Kansas).

With the calendar turning to July, the new conference realignment has taken hold, with the ACC, Big 12, Big Ten, and SEC all affected in some way. Learn about the new landscape, plus what the conference schedules and tournaments will look like in the upcoming season.

NC State has lost both MJ Rice and Ernest Ross (again) in the past week. The Wolfpack have also added Ismael Diouf.
