Welcome to the Seton Hall basketball 2025 off-season tracker.
As colleges experience unprecedented levels of player movement through the transfer portal, this page serves as your comprehensive source for tracking all of Seton Hall’s developments related to transfers, schedule changes, and additional news throughout the spring and into early summer.
April 4: Isaiah Coleman pledges his commitment to Oklahoma State
The second-year forward is set to move to a team that completed their season with an 17-18 record overall and went 7-13 within the Big 12 conference. This squad managed to defeat the Hall in Newark though. While he’ll be dearly missed by his current teammates at the university, some believe they might not see much more of him now that he’s heading into what many consider a less prominent basketball scene. Still, leaving behind the competitive landscape of the Big East could be seen as positive for his future. Plus, one added benefit is that life expenses will likely decrease significantly where he’s headed next.
On April 2, Merrimack College player Budd Clark has committed to transferring.
Drawing upon insights from his ex-teammate Jordan Derkack, I analyzed the characteristics of the point guard here In November, Clark dominated against Rutgers, overshadowing Dylan Harper’s performance. He truly stands out as a playmaking point guard and appears to be a perfect cultural addition. However, his height remains somewhat of a concern. Come next winter, he’ll definitely have the opportunity to handle the ball consistently.
April 1: Gus Yalden pledges to Vermont
Probably a good fit.
April 1: Scotty Middleton decides to join the transfer portal
He hasn’t made his move just yet; the sophomore forward plans to join soon. After an impressive freshmen campaign at Ohio State, he had a less satisfying performance this season. Middleton scored 5.8 points and grabbed 2.3 rebounds per game in about 21 minutes as a substitute. Although he managed to shoot 38% from beyond the arc, displayed Big East-caliber athleticism, and nailed the winning shot against UConn, he remained highly erratic and error-prone throughout.
March 28: Seton Hall reveals new practice facility as Bryan Felt outlines NIL and revenue-sharing plan
I dedicated some time exploring the remarkably impressive Seton Hall basketball performance center in South Orange and talked with Athletic Director Bryan Felt about the department’s strategy for managing the team’s funding and roster. The most significant insight I gained from this conversation was that the university administration is now actively involved in supporting the basketball program.
It appears that this is quite an important step forward. Legally speaking, the upcoming opportunity for educational institutions to generate income through shared revenues paved the way for this collaboration. However, when considering the broader picture, it looks like the higher-ups at the university may have hindered the progress of the athletics division compared to leaders at similar universities who took more initiative in establishingNIL structures within their own programs. The chaos and mismanagement evident from the numerous legal disputes involving the Seton Hall board of regents and presidential administration only compounded matters. This situation essentially placed additional pressure on the athletic department—and particularly Shaheen Holloway—to manage these challenges independently.
March 28: Gus Yalden joins the transfer portal
Following his redshirt year at Wisconsin and subsequent transfer, freshman center Gus Yalden finds himself on the move once more. Standing 6-9 with a weight of 260 pounds, he contributed averages of 1.8 points and 1.5 rebounds primarily when rotation players rested. Inside the paint, he struggled to get off shots efficiently and managed only a 36% field-goal percentage. Despite appearing as a good team player, his four-star recruitment ranking further underscores the unpredictability and fallibility of the scouting assessment process.
March 24: Isaiah Coleman will join the transfer portal
Although expected, Seton Hall failed the initial stress test of its attempts to enhance resources For team building during this off-season, as it seems the program’s only influential player might be leaving.
March 21: David Tubek reportedly entering portal
The 6-foot-7 undergraduate player who plays as a forward had an average score of 2.6 points and grabbed 1.7 rebounds per game with a three-point shot accuracy of 36%, yet he failed to secure a consistent spot in the lineup of a team that ended up having a record of 7 wins against 25 losses.
Here's Seton Hall's anticipated lineup for the 2025-26 season:
Guards (2): Garwey Dual, Jahseem Felton.
Wings : None.
Bigs (3): Godswill Erheriene, Prince Aligbe, Manny Okorafor.
