DJ Davis now officially in

 

[Mullins Revenge]

Somebody posted this yesterday, I'd like to second it: can we please keep this thread to guys who St John's is actively targeting or are strongly rumored to be interested in? We have a whole other thread to post every slapdick who hits the portal and a "we should go after this guy" message.

Gracias!

Slap nuts?

 

[tnice]

There but for the grace of God go all of us brother.

I believe it's the opposite and that it would potentially be easier for Dingle to add an extra year (although I don't think he is looking to play an extra year of college basketball). This is because Dingle apparently withdrew from school in the COVID year, 2020-2021, so that he could potentially play four years at Penn. This link states, "He withdrew from school in 2020-21, the season lost to COVID-19, while the vast majority of his teammates stayed, just so he could preserve four years of eligibility in a Penn uniform."

Exactly the reason he can’t get the covid year back because he didn’t play that year so nothing to get back. At least that was the explanation I read in a few different places. Ledlum played that year so he can apply to get it back though the Ivies don’t allow for it maybe NCAA gives it to him because he’s not at an Ivy League school anymore.

Yeah, that does make sense as to why Ledlum would actually have a better shot.

Just a reminder that as of right now we only have 4 available scholarships. We’re not bringing in 12 new guys like last year. Allows Pitino to really focus in on who he wants.

I think when it's all said and done, they'll be a few more than four.

I should edit my comment. A few more transfers in, or a few more people transferring out?

I have impression Chris applied for waiver, but no clue on the time frame of adjudication

Don't worry about the scholarship issue, that will always work itself out.

Heck he got 14 guys on a roster with just 13 scholarships this year.

Remember Rick's adage, "There is always room for one more..."

Depends on the topic

Heard it will be on the “Orlando Sanchez” fastrack.

Trilly: Was told a handful of guys are trying to do this or they’ll sue but I’m not really sure they have a case? The Covid year doesn’t count.
(again, highly recommend subbing on the discord, he answers plenty of questions [this one was from me])

What about Jamal mashburn jr?

Would be great if ledlum gets it, but the waiver doesn’t make a lot of sense to me since the point of the Covid waiver was to make sure guys that played during Covid weren’t penalized. He didn’t play so he wasn’t penalized. That said nothing about the ncaa makes sense so he’ll probably get the waiver.

Would love to get Ledlum back I think he’d make a great captain next year

Argument would be that he was penalized by not being allowed to play that season (Covid year). The Ivy leaguers didn’t lose the additional year granted to everyone but they missed out on the extra season that the ncaa didn’t count.

Precisely
