SJU Portal Targets

[Show me the NIL]

Has Pryor been on campus and worked out? If he hasn’t he’s not coming here. He originally played at Boise St which I like.

I don’t think we have enough NIL dollars left to beat out Arkansas, but I hope that I am wrong. This guy found his game last year and I think that he is going to have a monster year next year. He completes this team and is such a versatile player. He plays around the rim, can shoot the three and has excellent court vision. I think that Rick can use him anywhere except PG. I also love his on court enthusiasm and passing ability. Reel him in so that I can stop looking at this site until September.

Clips saw thought a 3?
6 rebs in lower conference not cutting it at the 4 in BE
Could start Wilcher if start Zuby/Pryor if comes

Played the 4 all last year.

Dixon (playing the 5) averaged 6.5 rebs and Caraban (playing the 4) averaged 5.1.

6 boards isn’t exactly chopped liver when 8 would have been good enough for 4th best in the BE. Also keep in mind he played at one of the slowest paces last year. Per 100 possessions he averages 2 less boards than ledlum. Who everyone would agree is a great rebounding forward.

if Rick wants him to camp out in the paint, this guy will pull down 10 rebounds. I don’t think that you want to use him solely for that purpose. We need him to have an outside game also.

Adjust for pace of play. He’s also a spacer on offense so his offensive rebounds are going to be limited.

Nobody will be in the paint this year by design.

As I said twice in my post, it is my opinion as to the strategy Rick is using to sign players. Some will listen and some will move on. It's just me surmising regarding his tactics in order to negate the ridiculous NIL $$$ out there.

There's no need to attempt to belittle others posts because you have a differing opinion. You can just post your opinion. That's the problem with all social media and some on this board these days. Everyone is looking to attack someone because they have a different opinion and they think that their opinion is superior to another. Just chill, bro.

This is exactly why I don't post as often as I would like here and abstain from all other social media. Social media really is the Bain of our society as too many participants use the forums to prove their superiority by bashing others.

There was no need to use the sentence "That's just silly" in order to negate my post. Reread your post without that line and you look like a better person.

Again, I said twice that it was my OPINION that this is Rick's strategy.

Peace.

(Can I get kudos from Kranmars on paragraphs?)

Not belittling your post. Just disagreeing with it. You offered your opinion I offered mine, if it offended you - I think that's a you thing.

We get Pryor think lineup looks like this:
Zuby
Pryor
Scott
Kadary
Smith

Luis 6th man will obviously play starter mins. Think best role for him as gives him more freedom.
Wicker 3rd guard
USC kid-backup Center
Dunlap
Glover

Again, Vince is the unknown. A 5 star 7’1” center out of HS who has injuries all along. If he gets fully recovered and reaches his potential, he’ll be a tough player to keep out of the starting line up.

Only sure starters from game to game are probably Kadary, Smith and Zuby. Rick will change lineups depending on opponent and who practices well. Now back to portal targets...

Wish had an hundie every time I have heard that last 25 years, although haven’t heard that since last year.

Although I feel similarly, past failure is no guarantee of future failure.

Wagner will pop for Ark, likely tomorrow so under normal circumstances I might say that helps SJU since he's costly....put Cal has a CRAZY budget....Im down here now ....they WANT Pryor (don't read into it I have NO idea which way he's leaning)and he's is going to build a DYNASTY here. Heard their pitch to a recruit(current Jr.)...ooof there are NOT playing..facilities, travel, housing....incredile

RJ Luis is starting!

Unfortunately Jerry Jones already pledged fealty to Arkansas hoops under Calipari. Pryor would be a tremendous get.

 

[MugCostanza]

The only team in the country I wouldn't want to go head to head with for Pryor is Arkansas unfortunately. Pryor fits their current needs like a glove and they have as close to unlimited money as you can get right now.

Hopefully Arkansas prefers Hawkins and feels they have a good shot at landing him though that seems a stretch given his timeline likely won't wrap until the end of the month at the earliest

Staff knowing that has to be working on some other irons in fire obviously.

Insert the scene in The Wolf of Wallstreet of Leo throwing money off the yacht...Cal has those "fun coupons"

Can Coach Rick bring in a 4 AND Chris Ledlum? I realize that there is only one scholarship available. Thanks.

 

[anybody but a hoya]

Knicks are helping us Who wouldnt want to play at MSG

I suppose anything is possible but bringing in a legit 4 like Pryor would really shrink the minutes for Ledlum should he return plus doubt the legit PF target plus Scott would be thrilled to see Ledlum inserted into the rotation.
