Notre Dame opens six-game homestand with overtime loss to Georgetown

This one slipped away.

Notre Dame likely won’t have many more wins this season, so any close loss will feel like a missed opportunity. Beginning a six-game homestand against former Big East rival Georgetown, the Irish had a few opportunities for the game to end in their favor. Instead, it was the Hoyas celebrating a 72-68 victory in overtime.

A game in which both the Irish (4-6) and Hoyas (7-4) had earlier nine-point leads was tied at 60 in the final minute of the second half. [autotag]Markus Burton[/autotag] made a go-ahead layup with 8.7 seconds left, but that was enough time for Rowan Brumbaugh to make a basket with 1.2 seconds remaining.

Burton nearly made one of the most incredible buzzer beaters of all time from three-quarter court, but instead, free basketball was needed to decide this one:

An Ismael Massoud 3-pointer with 1:16 left put the Hoyas up, 70-68. Burton was fouled on the next possession but missed two free throws. The Irish made a defensive stop on the other end and called a timeout with nine seconds left to try and either tie or win the game.

Burton drove and dished out to [autotag]Kebba Njie[/autotag], whose game-winning 3-point attempt was blocked by Supreme Cook. [autotag]Braeden Shrewsberry[/autotag] was forced to foul Brumbaugh with 0.4 seconds on the clock, and Brumbaugh made two free throws to ice it for the Hoyas.

Drew Fielder came off the bench to lead the Hoyas with 16 points, most of which came on four 3-pointers. Brumbaugh scored 15 while making all six of his free throws, and Massoud had 13 points. Jay Heath and Dontrez Styles scored 10 points apiece

Burton was the game’s high scorer with 17 points despite making only six of 20 field-goal attempts. [autotag]J.R. Konieczny[/autotag] flirted with a double-double of 13 points and eight rebounds, and [autotag]Julian Roper II[/autotag] had a couple of highlight-reel moments while also scoring 13. Shrewsberry came off the bench to score 10.

Texas G Rowan Brumbaugh to enter transfer portal

Brumbaugh is the first Longhorn to hit the portal this offseason. 

Texas freshman guard Rowan Brumbaugh announced his intention to enter the NCAA transfer portal this week. He becomes the first Longhorn to hit the portal this offseason.

Brumbaugh is a former four-star prospect from the class of 2022. He spent his freshman season redshirting as Texas had a strong group of experienced guards ahead of him.

247Sports Composite listed Brumbaugh as the No. 89 player in the 2022 cycle. He was a late signing for Chris Beard and the Longhorns in Dec. of 2021 after flipping from Northwestern.

Brumbaugh entering the portal leaves Texas with Arterio Morris as the lone scholarship guard on the roster. Starting guard Tyrese Hunter is questionable to return as he tests NBA Draft waters. Rodney Terry will have to utilize the transfer portal and high school ranks to build his backcourt for next season.

Texas G Devin Askew will enter the transfer portal

Askew’s departure opens the door for incoming freshmen Arterio Morris and Rowan Brumbaugh to compete for early playing time.

Second-year guard Devin Askew will enter the NCAA transfer portal after just one season with the Texas program.

This marks Askew’s second time in the transfer portal in his young career. He spent one year at Kentucky before joining Chris Beard in Austin.

Askew averaged just over two points and one rebound per game while playing 15 minutes a game with the Longhorns. He provided excellent on-ball defense and strong passing ability.

The former five-star should draw lots of interest from schools around the country. Askew has built experience at two premier programs and will have three years of eligibility at his next destination.

Askew’s departure opens the door for incoming freshmen Arterio Morris and Rowan Brumbaugh to compete for early playing time. Senior guard Marcus Carr is still weighing his options and is considering coming back next season.

Texas lands commitment from four-star PG Rowan Brumbaugh

Chris Beard adds another piece to Texas’ 2022 recruiting class.

Chris Beard and staff have struck again on the recruiting trail as four-star point guard Rowan Brumbaugh announced his commitment to Texas on Thursday.

Texas did a fantastic job maintaining a good relationship with Brumbaugh after his original commitment to Northwestern and it paid off.

The 6-foot-4 guard from Mass. chose the Horns over Northwestern, Georgetown and Kansas.

Brumbaugh is a skilled ball handler with a keen ability to find open teammates. He could even see early playing time as Texas will be losing a few guards after this season.

247sports composite has Brumbaugh ranked as the No. 11 point guard and the No. 85 overall player in the class of 2022.

Brumbaugh joins five-star point guard Arterio Morris and five-star forward Dillon Mitchell in Texas’ recruiting class.

The future looks bright for Texas’ basketball program.

Former Wisconsin target decommits from Northwestern

Former Wisconsin target decommits from Northwestern

Former Wisconsin basketball class of 2022 target Rowan Brumbaugh decommitted from Northwestern earlier today, according to a report from Stadium’s Jeff Goodman.

Brumbaugh committed to the Wildcats back in August. He chose Northwestern at the time instead of a lengthy list of offers including Wisconsin, Maryland, Penn State, Oregon and Georgetown.

The Northfield, Massachusetts native is 247Sports’ No. 85 player in the class of 2022, No. 11 point guard and No. 2 recruit from the state of Massachusetts.

Wisconsin currently has one commit in its class of 2022–three-star shooting guard Connor Essegian. We’ll now see if the Badgers return to pursue the recently-decommitted highly-touted four-star point guard.

Three-star point guard Rowan Brumbaugh puts Texas in top six schools

Rowan Brumbaugh cut his list down to six schools this week.

After landing a commitment from five-star shooting guard Anthony Black, Texas and Chris Beard are searching for another guard to add to the class. Some elite prospects are out there but one under-the-radar point guard could be a viable option.

Rowan Brumbaugh is a three-star out of Northfield, MA. Both Kansas and Texas offered him within two days of each other in the month of July, showing two of the best coaches in the country are interested.

On Wednesday, Brumbaugh cut his down to six schools, with both of the Big 12 powerhouses making the cut. Maryland, Miami, Northwestern, and Oregon make up the rest of the list.

In an interview with On3, Brumbaugh sat down and talked through each of the schools to make his top six. Check out what he had to say about Texas:

“I like Chris Beard a lot,” Brumbaugh said. “He’s about everything I’m about… winning and just getting the job done and being tough. He’s just a basketball junkie. He has a chip on his shoulder like me. He’s done a lot with his guards at Texas Tech, and now he’s at Texas. That’s an awesome program, too.”

According to On3, the three-star point guard has made official visits to Maryland and Northwestern. Brumbaugh is working on setting up the other three.

While it seems like Texas will prioritize other targets before putting on the full-court press for Brumbaugh, developing a relationship with a rising start is always a positive. His 6-foot-4, 180-pound frame checks out for a modern-day point guard, being able to distribute while getting his own buckets when needed.

Greg Gard and the Wisconsin basketball program received a piece of negative recruiting news yesterday, as they missed the top 6 for class of 2022 three-star point guard Rowan Brumbaugh.

The Badgers recently received a crystal ball prediction to land Brumbaugh, albeit the prediction had a confidence level of 3.

The Northfield, Massachusetts native is 247Sports’ No. 137 player in the class of 2022, No. 19 point guard and No. 3 recruit from his home state of Massachusetts.

Wisconsin will have to move on to the next target in the class as they look to build upon 2021’s No. 31 class in the country and No. 5 in the Big Ten.

The Wisconsin Badgers added to their class of 2022 offer sheet yesterday by extending one to 6’4″ point guard Rowan Brumbaugh.

The Northfield, Massachusetts native is currently unranked in the 247Sports composite and is now the No. 7 player to be offered by the Badgers in the class, joining four-star PG Tre Holloman, four-star SG Jaden Schutt, four-star SF Camden Heide, four-star PF Isaac Traudt, unranked PF Braden Huff and four-star C Joe Hurlburt.

Greg Gard and his staff are looking to up their game on the recruiting trail by landing a four-star or few with the hope of improving upon their No. 32-ranked 2021 class that contains four three-star recruits.
