Fully cleared to return Tugler (foot) has been fully cleared to resume all basketball activities, Jon Rothstein of CBS Sports reports. Impact Tugler, who underwent a season-ending foot surgery in March, is ready to roll for the Cougars ahead of the 2024-25 season. The 6-foot-7 sophomore appeared in 28 games prior to his injury (one start), averaging 3.8 points, 4.1 rebounds, 0.9 steals and 1.1 blocks on 16.1 minutes per game. The defensive-minded forward will look to build upon what was a productive freshman season despite his injury.
