2025 Portal Tracker

Yeah Johnston averaged 3 assists per game last season which isn't nothing but I view him as a gunner coming in here.
good shooter and maybe we'll want him to be a gunner, but he only averaged 9.5 shots per game the last 2 years. that's no where near the volume of someone like Jordan King. more in line with Delonnie, Dusan or Tyne.
 
And I think to your point, Richardson is mostly referred to as a PG or CG, so yet another guy we have who can run point if needed.

Originally I was pretty high on Richardson bc it was reported he was a PG, and I envisioned a big backcourt finally and a point forward type. But yeah I think he's more combo guard. and in reality for us that means a 3, more in Dji mold slasher, some ball handling, non shooter, hopefully D. because he's a 26% 3 pt shooter, and just a 60% FT shooter over 2 full hs seasons. Better for us if he's that point forward distributor. the shooting is a little alarming for high school. Mooney will tell us he's a great shooter just like last year was supposed to be. I guess we look good in practice against each other. Then came ECU scrimmage (credit 23).
 
This guy from Penn just entered the portal. More of a traditional forward type, so maybe not a fit, but nice numbers and he scored double digits at vcu and against St. Joe's this year. Grad transfer.

looks like just 1 of the hundreds of players with no eligibility who entered portal in hopes of something happening with courts, settlement, or just the fact that there is no governing body for rules or eligibility and a school will likely just take & play them.

btw isn't today technically the last day to get in portal? lol. if someone wanted to transfer in August who is going to say no.

Schieffelin said the same thing...out of eligibility and aiming to be done and go pro, but was advised to enter the portal just in case.

And yeah, today is the last day of regular portal entry...but we'll see how many exceptions there end up being. Women's portal closes tomorrow.
 
Another guy with a Spider history who should be done...Daeshon Shepherd has entered the portal despite having played four countable seasons at La Salle. We recruited him out of high school and then again last year when he portaled before opting to return to La Salle.
 
any idea when these guys who've played 4 full years will know if they have another?
tough to commit to a kid not knowing.
 
Not very good shooting at HS level for a guard for Richardson. Certainly not going to get easier looks at A10 level, especially with our offense. Great to see that sources have us at bottom of A10 though!! Moon will like that as it gives him easy runway to overachieve.
 
G Johnston
G Thomas (as of now).
G/wing ? Someone with size who can shoot
F Daughtry
Big Walz

To be really good, I just think we still need to add a guard or wing who can shoot. That spot should be wide open. The freshmen, Tyne, Tanner, AP, or a portal guy? Who wants it? And, it could be 2 spots open because Thomas might not start.
Unless Mooney changes his offense we will still smell with Big Walz in there.
I will go to my grave believing we'd have been better to let Neskovich facilitate the offense last year for the foul line. And sight unseen I believe we'll be better next year with Daughtry there rather than Walz.
 
Your incessant posting of a negative and the fact that other posters find it amusing.
It seems to me we see fewer and fewer new members on this site. Not everyone
wants to see a negative.
We just finished a 8-22 season. What else is there besides negatives to incessantly post about? The men’s basketball team made the University I love look like a joke all season. Knowing that nobody in the administration or coaching staff feels any pressure as a result of that really pisses me off.
