Colorado State mens basketball secured two promising guards, Amondo Miller Jr. and Justin Menard, for the 2026 season, filling the void left by Brandon Rechsteiners departure to Kansas State. The Rams, led by first-year coach Ali Farokhmanesh, retained most starters but lost depth due to transfers. Miller, a Division II All-American, and Menard, a Marist standout, bring Colorado roots and eligibility to stabilize the backcourt. The teams focus now shifts to immediate contributors for a deeper postseason run, as several bench players, including Augustinas Kiudulas, Darnez Slater, Jon Mekonnen, and Nikola Djapa, have moved on. With the transfer portal closed, Farokhmanesh aims to build momentum with these new additions, anticipating a tougher Rams squad ready to compete in the Mountain West.
