So, if I have the sequence right, Adams commits to UConn. He’s followed by Mullins, Reibe, and Furphy. Then, UConn gets Demary and Smith from the portal. Adams then figures (either after talking to the coaching staff, or on his own) that he’s not going to get much PT for at least a year.

Out of curiosity, if you’re advising Adams, what do you tell him? 1) Stick with UConn, and even if you get minimal PT as a frosh, get as much coaching your first year as you can, and then re-evaluate? 2) De-commit from UConn, try to “re-open” your recruiting, and hope one of those teams still wants you & has a scholarship available in April? (and, if not, just “throw yourself” at any school that shows interest?).

I’m really curious what BY thoughts are, because, to me, Adams is just the most immediate example of what’s likely to be a common occurrence when there’s a “conflict” between untested high school recruits and proven talent from the portal.
