Kansas snagged MAC Freshman of the Year point guard Leroy Blyden Jr. from Toledo in the transfer portal.

He made the All-MAC Third Team in 2025-26 after averaging 16.4 points, 4.0 rebounds, 4.5 assists and 1.8 steals while shooting 40.7% from 3-point range in 34 games (32 starts) for the Rockets.

Blyden visited St. John’s but opted to join the Jayhawks, who previously received a transfer commitment from Utah forward Keanu Dawes.

Blyden was runner-up to Michigan freshman Trey McKenney for Michigan’s Mr. Basketball honor in 2025.
