Big portal addition in Oregon St sophomore guard Jordan Pope https://x.com/tiptonedits/status/177...429-7Zsp1zj4Tg

Headed to Texas. There was prior mention on BCJ of possible UC interest here, but never saw them formally mentioned.

Former Top 50/60 recruit Scotty Middleton of Ohio State is headed to the portal.

Look for it to be a busy day today.

Seton Hall

Felix Okpara , a 6'11 C from tOSU is in the portal. Elite rim defender. Has two years left.

Okpara to Tennessee

WVU has added two Illinois transfers after hiring an Illinois assistant. Both were nice recruits but nothing special in college to date.

West Virginia adding UIC's third-leading scorer who went for 20/11/6 blocks in the season opener versus UC.

[Lobot]

Among the first names that caught my eye:

Brandon Garrison, a 6'11 freshman C (and former McDonald's AA) for Oklahoma State, who had 14 points and 4 rebounds in the win at UC; averaged 7.5 and 5.3

Jacob Meyer, a 6'2 freshman G from Coastal Carolina (via Covington, KY - Holy Cross), who averaged 15.7 / 6.1 / 2.6, including 40.2% from 3

Javon Small, a 6'3 junior G from Oklahoma State / previously East Carolina, who averaged 15.1 / 4.7 / 4.1 and is from Indiana; had 19 against UC this year, 23 last year while playing for ECU

Former Bearcat Jarrett Hensley (Southern Illinois) is expected to hit the portal

Kaleb Glenn, a 6'6 freshman wing from Louisville (the school and the city), who averaged 3.9 and 3.6 in 15 mins per game this year; former 4-star recruit

Kaleb Glenn to FAU

Seems like Kansas will likely get Rylen Griffin, a sophomore who averaged 11+ ppg for Alabama.

"Alabama transfer Rylan Griffen has committed to Kansas, he told ESPN. One of the best shooters in the portal, he averaged 11.2 PPG and shot better than 39% from 3. Made 48% of his 3s in Alabama's Final Four run, scored 19 vs. UNC." -- Jeff Borzello

Another net negative defender to Kansas. It will be interesting to see how several all offense, no defense players fit together. Can Bill Self get poor individual defenders to play decent as a unit, or is every game going to be a shootout? They do return a couple of good experienced defenders in Adams and Harris. Kansas struggled offensively this year, and they've certainly addressed that problem in the portal.

Travis Branham of 247 says Dallin Hall is considering the following schools: Creighton, Clemson, Cincinnati, Florida, Washington, Utah, Utah State, a return to BYU.

BYU's Dallin Hall staying put, so is Richie Saunders

Almost time Sean gets a dedicated recruit thread?

Sean is on campus, per Jizzle's Instagram (apparently -- just saw screenshots posted to Twitter/X).

I sure hope Jizzle can be persuasive.

[Joco45215]

I sure hope Jizzle can be persuasive.

Jizzle is all over him.....teammates in AAU........could be a top player in the big 12......would be a old school big east front line........7'1, 6'9", 6'8" plus bench guys all over 6'7"

Per Chad Brendel, CWM visited Stewart's family in FL this week before flying to Durham to speak to Sean, who is here just for today & will travel to tO$U tomorrow. He apparently is looking at 2 other schools, but has no scheduled visits at present.
