The Portal has been open for a week. It will be open for three more weeks.
Thus far, we have 0.0 high school commits and 0.0 Portal commits.
I want to believe we will receive good news soon, but I am fully aware that a LOT of other schools have significantly increased their NIL budgets for basketball.
So...yeah...

St. John’s star RJ Luis is the NCAA transfer portal’s best asset after winning Big East Player of the Year this season. Where will he land?

Every player we're after seems to have a LONG list of potential schools.
That's good in that we're going after top Portal guys; bad in the sense of "Why would they pick us (a program starting from scratch) as opposed to a lock for next years' NCAAT?
Overpaying to get RJ Luis might have a good secondary effect, i.e., leading to other signings we wouldn't otherwise get.According to this article, Miami is a potential landing spot for RJ Luis...

Yes, the secondary effect would be to have less money to spend to surround a talented me-first player…
That's what we pay Lucas for. To evaluate and make those difficult decisions, no? Was Luis a "me first" player all year, or just in that game? Hard to believe he was and still be voted POY.
Starting to build a competitive roster basically from scratch ain't easy.

I’d rather aggregate the NIL personally

Seriously? This is just another slobber-job for Jai Lucas.
Look at you, hypothesizing about whether Luis became a me-first player FOR ONE GAME. Are you ******* kidding me? Rick ******* Pitino is giving up on a player because of 5 minutes of selfish game-time? If that was true, he would have quite coaching college basketball decades ago.
Not sure if you've noticed, but "Player of the Year" is an individual honor. You could fill an encyclopedia with the names of selfish athletes who won individual honors.
Why don't you spew some more generalities like "building a roster ain't easy". Good lord, the pablum that passes for posting...
More hot**** from @hotshot ...
