2025 Portal Tracker

Dinkins portaling again after a one-year stop at Duquesne. We were mentioned with him last year coming out of Canisius but didn't seem to get beyond initial contact.

 
pretty amazing that a guy with mostly low level interest in HS goes and puts up good freshman year numbers on a crappy team in a low level conference for one year ... and suddenly he's a high major target.
 
All Wright actually goes by his middle names, as his full name is Andre All Wright Vargas. Presumably a similar situation with Always.

Right or wrong (pun intended), I think there's often something about the order of lists when they aren't alphabetical.
We seem to be listed 1st on a lot of them this year.

And with our name on so many lists already, I'm thinking the coaches expect a lot of holes to fill.
 
Decent pickup for the Bonnies and their revolving door...Wood Hall was interested in him coming out of Canisius alongside Dinkins last year.

His agent is probably just throwing out names to artificially increase his value.
 
NIL has created a ridiculous mess.
How many of these kids are going to go to a school for the right
reasons, like academics , social fit, etc., and how many are selling
their souls as teenagers and young adults in hopes of a professional career?
I see schools on these lists that are only going to buy one player and
others that will be buying a lot, and shoving last year’s reject/s out of the
door.

I am starting to get in the old man, get off my lawn, NIL killed mid major basketball camp.

But if I were getting paid 1.5 million and trying not to pile up 20 loss seasons, I would be all in on trying to build a roster this off season.

So the question is, are we going to sign players on hope (guys like gw3 and AP) that have not produced at D1 level, are not plus athletes that can at least provide defense and physicality, or are we going to try to get dudes in the portal this off season. Or are we just paying lip service on contacting every portal entry (playing long game, "see we tried" and depending on freshman). Will say, looking at SDSU, they actually have been building well on HS recruits, BUT getting raided badly (Magoon Gwath this year). If the long game starts paying off in two years, you definitely will get raided.

So, really need to sign some dudes in this portal.
