However I do think some stabilizing will occur. With almost all the Covid kids gone there should be less older guys standing in the way of these young players entering the portal and they should be incentivized to stick around…the log jam is about to clear up! Yep. The portal is not going to be nearly as reliable as it has been. There will still be plenty of people entering but it will continue to go back to supply and demand. The safest bet will be to try and get at least 1/2 your expected needs via HS and then fill the rest or swing for the fences in the portal. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There is a reason the NBA doesn’t recruit high school! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Imo I want those 25-50 ranked guys and sure you can sprinkle in a 5* one and done…but I want the meat of my roster returning guys with a couple portal studs.

It'll continue to be the ACC or it'll be the B1G. There aren't really any other viable options for them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
