Indiana Hoosiers battle 9 schools for Yaak Yaak in transfer portal originally appeared on The Sporting News. Add The Sporting News as a Preferred Source by clicking here.
The Indiana Hoosiers are apparently getting active in the transfer portal.
They're one of 10 schools reported to be interested in Yaak Yaak from Oregon State.
The Portal Report indicated in a new post that Indiana is going after Yaak along with these 9 other schools:
- Louisville
- USC
- Memphis
- San Francisco
- Akron
- UAB
- Wyoming
- Siena
- Cal State-Northridge
That's a wide variety of schools, and it's hard to know which end of that list is more likely for Yaak.
Yaak is a 6-foot-11 forward who came to college basketball from the NBA Global Academy in Australia.
He began his college career with a season at New Mexico State, and after missing his entire sophomore season, he just played his junior year for the Beavers.
In 2025-26, Yaak averaged 6.6 points, 2.2 rebounds and 0.5 blocks per game.
He occasionally shoots 3-pointers, but not often, although his career 82.9% free-throw shooting suggests he's got a solid stroke that could prove useful if a team committed to building his shot from beyond the arc.
It would be a bit of a risk for a team like Indiana or Louisville to bring Yaak aboard given that even his most recent season was only played in the West Coast Conference.
But you can't teach height, and Yaak has enough intriguing traits to clearly have a bunch of schools interested.
