SJU Portal Targets

[mattc]

All 3 around the same tier talent wise. And all different types of forwards.

Pass on Mitchell for me

 

[anybody but a hoya]

Trilly: For the last spot: Mitchell/Pryor/Watkins

Looks like Ledlum done

 

[tnice]

Can we just fast-forward three weeks to the "wow, I was getting a little nervous there but freakin' Pitino man, I should've had more faith" portion of the program?

OK, three-ish weeks.

Now it's clear why Rick passed on Bensley and Kriisa. Not sure why he entertained them in the first place but passing on them makes complete sense in retrospect

Maybe he thought they could wow him in an in person workout and at that point a bird in the hand…but much much rather have the 2 guys we ended up with.

Pryor would be the missing piece hoping we still have the funds to get it done.

I’d imagine they had money earmarked for Ledlum if he returned.

 

[Marillac2]

A stretch 4/5 who can play uptemp

Pass.

 

[stjohnnie75]

Let’s just grab this kid:

 

[KG44]

Pass.

Curious as to why? Site unseen for me. But stats indicate a nice stretch 4. Obviously, a rotational player for a team near the end of its budget.

 

[redfan253fff]

lol why because i dont believe this Y2 guy who nobody has any idea who it is, and get several things wrong already?

You still doubting? Best SJU plug I’ve seen..

 

[bucketshardy]

Is JT Toppin a complete pipe dream? ... would he want to keep it in the family...?

My first reaction is this kid is Luis. I’m already concerned with Luis and Richmond together.

If he’s willing to play some 5, I could be convinced. I think this kid fits a money ball kind of team a little better.

Now you put him at the 5 to build back some shooting and Marillac likey.

 

[Amaseinyourface]

Pass.

What do we need now? Shooting and some help on the inside. Of the options I definitely wouldn’t pass on him.

I’d like a beefy PF who can play some center when we go small. I’d take that over a stretch four.

While not beefy, he was South Florida’s starting center. If we want to offer significant minutes to a front court guy I thinks it’s going to need to be someone who can play both 4 and 5.

 

[MugCostanza]

We need a big that can shoot. In no world is Pryor a pass

Interest by staff is real on Pryor apparently.

Nah I think he's more PF/C than a SF.

fwiw, USF fan and Memphis fan both raved about him as a hustle guy as well.
