How to read this page
Every number is over Lone Star Conference programs whose 2026–27 roster lists at least 8 players. "Avg height" is over players with a listed height; "Freshmen" over players with a readable class label; "New this season" is the share of players not on the same program's 2025–26 roster, at programs listed at strength in both seasons; "In-state" and "Outside the US" are over players with a home on record.
A conference-level measure is shown only when 30 players carry the fact behind it, a program-level one when 8 do — a dash is a cell under the floor, not a zero. The Division II figures are pooled over every Division II program at strength, the same rule the conferences-compared page uses.
What this means for a recruit looking at the Lone Star
How to read itThis conference recruits close to home.
58% of its players list the college's own state, and Texas alone supplies 52%. A recruit outside those states is competing against a wider field for the same spots.
Rosters here are rebuilt more than most.
67% of 2026–27 players were not on the same program's roster the season before. The program table shows which rosters turned over most — those are the programs with spots to fill.
Height differences between conferences are real but small next to the level.
0.3 inches separates the Lone Star from the Division II average. Pick the level first, then the conference; the program pages carry each roster's own numbers.
Those are the Lone Star's rosters. Where does your profile fit?

Definitions and scope
- Source
- Official 2026–27 rosters (and 2025–26 for turnover) published by the athletics sites of NCAA Division II men's basketball programs, collected by Depth Chart.
- Conference
- The canonical conference each program plays in this season, realignment notes folded away; a program whose move has not happened yet counts in the conference it plays in.
- Floors
- A conference needs 5 programs at strength and 30 players to get a page; each conference measure needs 30 players carrying the fact; each program measure 8.
- Home
- A player's home state as the roster lists it; a value that is not a US state or DC is outside the US.
- Sample
- 227 players on 2026–27 rosters at the 15 Lone Star Conference programs counted.
