25 Men's College Basketball Transfers To Watch During The 2026-27 Season

Shows off outside shooting Kohler had 19 points (8-15 FG, 3-7 3Pt) and five rebounds across 25 minutes in an Oct. 24 exhibition victory over UNLV.

Impact It was not a bad scoring outing from Kohler despite a hint of foul trouble, as the fifth-year senior showed he was fully capable of stepping outside and hitting the three. He also had a pair of treys in an Oct. 16 exhibition outing against Nebraska en route to a double-double. BYU has plenty of capable scorers for the 2026-27 campaign, but given the projected tempo boost Kohler will get after transferring from Michigan State, the 6-10 center has a strong chance to improve his counting stats across the board with the Cougars.

Kohler will play for BYU after a 2025-26 campaign in which he averaged a career-best 12.5 points per game with MSU.
