Ray Retires as Panthers Shape Defense | College Basketball News
Description
Veteran defensive lineman LaBryan Ray has retired abruptly, just before the Panthers’ preseason opener, leaving a void on the defensive line that’s being filled by rookies and emerging players. With key starters like Turk Wharton sidelined and Bobby Brown back in action, the team is leaning on younger talent like Lee Hunter and Cam Jackson while eyeing undrafted rookie Aaron Hall as a potential rotational starter. Meanwhile, the receiving corps gets a boost with additions Elijah Cooks and Roc Taylor, clearing space for them by releasing Ainias Smith and Gabriel Benyard — signaling the Panthers are actively reshaping their roster as the new season kicks off.
