"took this skid" ?
I thought that was some lingo the youngsters use for losing.

Now I guess I u typo'd it and meant "took this kid" thanks for clarification
Even if he leaves still, the L at the end of the video made me spit out my coffee this morning and will be a funny memory. He's got someone in his ear is my guess. All the other players are apparently sticking, outside trying to get a read on being drafted. Not sure how he could leave all his teammates when he is the only PG, when he is wanted so bad.
 
So I just went through 4 pages and I’m finding the only difference between this thread and the other portal thread is the posters here drink tea with their pinky up
The joke's on you. What's in my cup only looks like tea.

This guy seems elite level…sign me up.


This guy was better as a freshman than Newton was as a junior in the AAC. Has great stats.

Not sure he fits our defensive scheme being short (tall guards help to prevent passing over the top when the big is retreating after the hedge). But he's probably a top 3 guy in the portal and we do have that AAC PG pipeline going....

Dan recruited gaffney/diggins/Diarra that were all around 6’2. Obviously none were 6’ but we are talking a more productive player.

We have contacted 3 SGs and 0 PGs so I’m assuming that continues at this point

Slater tweeted he's not leaving the state so maybe back to LSU?

I don’t think we hedge nearly as much next year much with Clingan getting 30 min a game

Slater said he didn’t expect him to leave the state
 
It’s impossible to say right now - we really have no idea what our roster will look like next year. (Dan Hurley does.)
This sounds promising.

I know everyone talks about posh, but Addae Wusu is the Johnnies transfer that interests me. He is a respectable shooter with solid AST numbers and a good defender. He was the 2nd best player on the St Johns team last year (minimum 50% minutes played) going by hoop maths RAPM.

Seton Hall should be all over the St Johns transfers

You guys are at a higher level than any of these SJU cast offs. If Pitino wanted them they would have been kept by NIL. There is a reason they were part of losing teams and it wasn’t all Mike Anderson, other than his inability to get them to play together.

I doubt he can play 30 a game, but even at 25-28 hedging will be a lot less common. Most important portal piece might be a backup big, depending on who returns. Still think Hurley will get big guards when he can, but wouldn’t pass up a great 6 foot kid.
 
Two more not making it into the portal. I’m shocked how English and PC have been able to keep this team together honestly.

Wondered if Hopkins would try to go to the draft. He’s projected 2nd round. I think it’s smart of them to come back. There’s no reason to think English can’t be good at PC. Glad to see this.

From what little I've seen and read your new coach seems to be a personable guy and the type of coach who can connect with younger players. For your sake I hope he views PC as more than a rung on the ladder to where he wants to be and it would be nice if he works out to be a better coach than Cooley.

And this was key for English or whoever else was going to be the PC coach, retaining the players. I heard that English had a good relationship/friendship with Bryce Hopkins while he was in high school. A lot of times, not all the times, recruiting can have a domino effect. If Hopkins leaves, I am certain Devin Carter leans much more heavily to leaving and I am sure those two have talked a bunch about their futures after Cooley left for Georgetown. But in retaining Hopkins, it just makes it that much more likely to retain Carter and once other players on the roster see that those two are remaining they are more likely to stay as well.

Of course the impact of the NIL deals is so important, too. I am sure there are some lucrative businesses on Federal Hill that can help with that.
 
Who is still in the Portal.

KE looks like a good guy though, Providence should be glad in the end here. I think they may be better off long term without Cooley. I can't wait to see Cooley be the doormat of the league next year. And it's coming.
I think people might be surprised how quickly Cooley can make Georgetown competitive. It won’t necessarily be overnight, but I don’t expect them to be the doormat that they have been, as soon as next season. The new portal era is a totally different beast in terms of rebuilding a program.
It’s not like Georgetown lacked talent either. The coaching was ostensibly atrocious.
