That prediction turned out to be true, as the Wolfpack retained just two players and added a wide array of transfers in the weeks following Gainey's hiring. One of those transfer additions was former McDonald's All-American guard Darius Adams , who played his freshman season at Maryland. Adams is the only Wolfpack transfer to play at a high-major program during the 2025-26 season so far, but his role will be very different in Raleigh than what he did with the Terrapins during his freshman year.
