On Wednesday, Pitt and the ACC released its 2025-26 conference opponents for the upcoming college basketball season.

The schedule is headlined by two matchups against Clemson, and home games against Duke and Louisville. The Blue Devils are once again loaded under head coach Jon Scheyer, even after losing Cooper Flagg to the NBA Draft. Duke reloaded with the No. 1 ranked recruiting class, as well as several key returners coming back. Louisville hauled in a tremendous transfer class in preparation for year No. 2 under Pat Kelsey.

“The ACC announced the move to an 18-game schedule on May 7,” Pitt said in a press release. “Additional information on that change is available HERE. The ACC conducted 20-game conference schedules from the 2019-20 season through the 2024-25 campaign, and last played 18-game league schedules from the 2012-13 through 2018-19 seasons.”

Pitt has added eight new players to the roster so far for the 2025-26 season.

See details below on the Panthers’ transfer additions: Damarco Minor, Nojus Indrusaitis, Dishon Jackson, and Barry Dunning Jr.

Minor, a 6-foot senior guard out of Chicago, averaged 9.8 points and 5.1 assists per game for the Beavers this past season. Prior to his time at Oregon State, he spent two seasons at Southern Illinois-Edwardsville.

Indrusaitis, who spent his high-school years in the Chicago area, was ranked as the No. 96 player and a four-star prospect in the class of 2024 before going to Iowa State. He played for Meanstreets EYBL and also competed for Saint Rita High School in Chicago before going to Brewster Academy.

Jackson is a 6-11, 275-pound senior center, who this past season averaged 8.5 points and 5.1 rebounds per game in 18.7 minutes of action. The year prior, he averaged 11.4 points and 6.1 rebounds. His best two performances last year were a 17-point, 4 rebound game against Kansas and a 14-point, 5-rebound effort against TCU.

Dunning is a 6-foot-6 wing who has played for Arkansas, UAB, and South Alabama. This past season for South Alabama, he averaged 15.1 points and 7.2 rebounds per game. Dunning shot 46% from the field and 31% from three-point range this past season.
