With the NBA Draft early entry window and most transfer activity behind us, below is a summary of the roster changes for all 18 teams in the Big Ten leading up to the 2025-26 season.

Shown in alphabetical order, next to each team’s name is their preseason ranking according to Bart Torvik.  This is intended to give you the lay of the land in the Big Ten next season.  Later, we’ll do a deeper dive into each team, and rank the conference in tiers.

This page will be updated if any new roster developments occur. Check back periodically on the IU basketball drop-down menu.

(Recruiting rankings are according to the On3 Industry Average)
