The Pirates are looking to build on their momentum from 2025-26, when their 21-win season ranked as the third-best turnaround in the nation. Fifth-year head coach Shaheen Holloway has shown a knack for identifying and crafting talent, and is primed to do so again in 2026-27. The backcourt features a bevy of high-volume scorers, including sharpshooters Rodney Brown and Kareem Thomas as well as BIG EAST vets Roddie Anderson and Simeon Wilcher. In the post, FAU transfer Devin Williams offers elite rim protection, as his 2.6 blocks per game was fifth-best in the nation last year. Alongside him is Orange, N.J., native Terry Copeland, who dominated the JUCO ranks to the tune of just shy of 20 points per game en route to being named NJCAA Division I Player of the Year. Along with the return of athletic guard Trey Parker, the Pirates have all the tools to produce yet another exciting season on the court.
