I go to bed each night thinking Rick has the inside track on yet-to-be-made news of a star high school player reneging or some stud that will soon enter the portal.
Because of paper, this roster is just (In Rick We Trust) and nothing else.

I've been on a sincere streak for quite a while now.

Bench - Conway
Bench - Davis

Main targets as of now and where they slot in if they commit:
Mgbako (Lock to start at PF)
Ledlum (Lock to start at SF or PF)
Thomasson (slides into starting SG role)
Cormac Ryan (Likely starting SF)
Slazinski (Starting PF if no Mgbako/Ledlum, first 4 off the bench if one of Mgbako/Ledlum)
Dunlap (Mid bench piece)
Meyer (Probably slots in between Davis and Traore)

I like this better than my recruiting tracker list. Nice work
I’d really like if the roster makeup pushes Thomasson to a scorer off the bench

Alleyne is a guard.

Amazing how an outlook can change in just a few hours. Last night I thought that Conway might have to be our starting PF. And I didn't even think he'd be that bad at it because he can rebound well for his size and traditional PFs would have to defend him all the way out to the 3-point line.

Yeah could be a 2 or 3. UConn ran some lineups in the tourney with Newton, Calcaterra and Alleyne as the backcourt so he would have been the 3 in those lineups. Assume if Thomasson is in the fold as a starter then Alleyne would be a 3 mostly, but could go either way
Four of Ten Roster Replenishments filled.
Not comparing players but thinking about slots:
Jenkins for Posh
Davis for King
Conway For Pinzon
Alleyne for Mathis
? for Storr
? for Wusu
? for Jones
? for Curbello
? for Stanley
? for Nywie
Decommitted Recruits
? for Reede
? for Gardner
? for Lendeborg
Someone can fill in the question marks with their wish list here.

The Knicks Bomb Squad! Tucker, Wilkins, and Newman!
It’s unheard of that a SJU team ever recruits nor coaches with the 3 being a priority. We have hired coaches for decades who have made us known as the team that will have to win by “rock fight”. I for one am looking forward to some nicer lookin offensive basketball eventually. Defense as well.

I don't think we fill all 13, so two may go without a swapping partner.
Plus it seems like he thought he could get more out of Traore/Keita than Lendeborg. (Traita? Keiore?)

It would be a nice problem to have but I prefer impact guys with size now being added for the 3 and 4 positions.
Bottom line is Pitino is putting together a much improved offensive lineup at every position.
Honestly, backcourt as it is as of today will be more dynamic by far than what we had last year I think. Different type of player. Better coaching.

The one good thing I suppose is that when talking to someone like Fland or Edgecombe, we can likely point to a starter's name on the roster and say, "He is not going to be here next season."
