Izzo might want to start caring about the portal.
You realize there is literally a way to fact check this right?Quote:

Is this a serious question? His resume speaks for itself, even at Xavier the 1st time. In each of his 2 offseasons he has brought in one of the best transfers into the BE each year from the portal.Quote:

After Free and Hunter were no longer available, I thought Sasa and Lazar were intriguing last minute pick ups and that might be able to play at a bit higher level than they did. Still we have to remember that they are Freshman thrown into to play at the BE level. . So while they didnÂ’t come come along a little faster than we all hoped this season. I thought maybe holding on to one of them he felt was most promising would have made sense. I think most of us are a little surprised that all four of them (Lazar, Sasa, Abou, and Kachi) are in the portal.Quote:

AND
a) Sean let the other centers on the team know his plan is to get another center who can play at a higher level than anything he saw this season and it might mean less playing time if none of them can improve next season.
b) the current Cs/PFs all left because they felt Sean did not praise them enough (this feels less likely).
c) Sean has a center pretty much locked up (maybe another international player who we are unaware of) that he knows will produce at a higher level next season.
Isn't it correct that a player who enters the portal, can come back to his school (assuming the school wants him back)?
Suspect this is old school thought, but in this NIL/portal era, if a player goes into the portal it would seem he is:
1 - looking for more playing time, maybe at a 'better' location
2 - stepping down because he realizes he can play more at a lower lever instead of riding the pine/waiting to improve
3 - can get more NIL $ from another school
If he comes back to his original school (and they take him) I can't imagine what that does to team chemistry...if that exists anymore.
It would mean one of the 3 things didn't work out; but he didn't want to remain at his first school.
So much for the name on the front of the jersey.
