SJU Offseason Thread (portal and recruiting discussions)

[rehobie]

Every time a new point guard enters the portal we all go crazy over him. In many cases we are not on his list. The grass is greener syndrome.

The one guard on our list is Xavian Lee. He checks many boxes. Need scoring. He gets 17 per game. Rebounding, he averages 6 which would replace Kadary. Assists, 5 per game while shooting 44 pct. To me, at 6 4” , he is the best guard in the portal.

Wright seems in play fwiw.

Someone shared that Trilly said we're in play.

"Early schools for Wright from a source: Nova, UNC, Florida, St. John’s and Duke - Trilly D"

48 hours ago some of the RM brethren were panic struck about not enough quality PG candidates

SJU brethren anxiously awaiting a PG is currently the equivalent of me looking at my 401K

No need to look at that unless you are retiring in the next few years.

He just entered the portal unexpectedly
Baylor was pretty sure that he was returning next season
Perhaps he could be an option to consider
He played very well against us in the Bahamas

He played well all season. From Monteverde and played with Cooper Flagg.

Even if we don't get Wright it is obviously better to have more options out there. As long as we get one.

Way I see it, he can either cancel out a Lee suitor or bolster the Big East. Win-win

Exactly.

 

[queenstocali]

Exactly.

Yeah but now Baylor also back in market for a lead guard. It’s all a wash.

Perhaps, but don't think we'll be competing with Baylor for Lee. But I get it, it's a game of musical chairs so everything is connected in a way.

Not sure of a regular Marfo but we now have a Meechie AKA double Marfo

Meechie Johnson went from Ohio St to South Carolina back to Ohio St and now going back to South Carolina next year

It’s a Climate thing . Studying Winter in Ohio and Summer in
S Carolina .

I'd be more afraid if I was a program like LSU that got Dedan Thomas to commit early.

Some chatter that UNC is making big play for Wright. Would love him, but I guess that is potentially helpful w Lee.

Us, Nova, UNC, Florida, and now Baylor. Let the transfer portal lead guard games commence

We still working on a visit for Lee?

I only posted that yesterday lol. I don’t do bed checks.

Like half this board lives in North Carolina and Florida, read the room bruh

 

[mattc]

I would feel a lot more comfortable once Florida has its guards for next season.

 

[SLYFOXX1968]

When he hits an important late 3 for us we can call him Dagger Lee.

Lloyd Price , circa 1958. Shot Billy so so. bad .

Bar Room Dice games , not for the faint of heart
