Upside guard with a scorer’s résumé and room to grow
In the 2025-26 season, Romano entered Buffalo as a 6-foot-3 freshman guard after a strong St. Rose career, where he averaged 13.0 points, 4.4 rebounds, and 2.8 assists as a senior and scored in double figures in 22 of 30 games. He brings size, proven shot-making, and confidence as a secondary creator, plus winning pedigree from a state title run. The big caveat: he redshirted in 2025-26 and did not see game action, so the appeal is development upside rather than immediate production.
