Below is a lengthy list of local kids (NY/NJ/Philly) who are either in the portal already, or are able to be because they've done their four years but haven't yet joined the fray. It remains to be seen if they will.
You will find a lot of kids who are probably nowhere near Big East level. You will find kids who are definitely Big East level but we'd probably have to pay $1 million to get them. There are probably some kids who were four-year starters at a low major who could theoretically serve as a backup. I do not need to hear "This guy sucks" or "You are crazy if you think ____ would come here." That's not really the point. Actually, I'm not sure what the point is other than to show that there are lots of kids out there. And probably a healthy dose of me procrastinating on a work project due Wednesday.
