Apparently pulling his name from the NBA draft and will return to St. Joe's rather than transfer to Texas A&M.

 

Jon Rothstein on Twitter: "NEWS: Jordan Hall is withdrawing from the 2021 NBA Draft and will now return to St. Joe's next season instead of transferring to Texas A&M, according to a source. https://t.co/zvLzomFeb1" / Twitter

Wow.  I really liked this kid and thought he would fit in great here.  St Joe’s must be thrilled.

With Banton staying in the draft could this be possible?

If McGowens likes him I suppose it could happen. Wasn't the word basically that Trey and Xavier Johnson didn't really like each other? If him and Carr are buds, I suppose this could happen, but Carr will be heavily sought after.

Would love to see Cockburn here if Banton leaves.  I know it’s a pipe dream though.

Washut says “No” on both Cockburn and Carr.

Crap.  Makes that official.  Actually, now I am just being spoiled.

There is Kevin Obanor who just announced he is in portal. Lit it up to end last season, wonder if we have reached out.

[49r]

Reading through Reddit on these guys today it looks like:

 

Cockburn is likely headed to Kentucky

Carr is likely headed to Texas

 

Not much of a feeling on Obanor, but he'll have a lot of suitors no doubt

[thrasher31]

just me speculating, but this could be a possibility. He's from Brooklyn so I'm assuming theres an abdellmasih connection. At the same time, there was no St John's offer out of HS back in 16/17. 

 

No rumor. Just me speculating. If they plan on filling this quick (they should imo) leaning on connections/relationships is going to be key.

So any guesses as to who fills the last 2021 scholarship? I believe it will be a point guard transfer

So you got the information from Washut also.

This guy kicked our tires. Committed to transfer to Tex A&M, declared for the draft, has now withdrawn from the draft, and decided to return to St. Joe's rather than transfer to A&M.

 

But then Dalano Banton decided to stay in the draft, so ...

 

Our roster now looks a little more attractive for a 6-8 PG who was certainly among the better passers in the country.

 

Not sayin'; just sayin'.

I would be thrilled if it was a starting caliber point guard.  I feel like that is the one weakness on our roster.  I hope we find out soon…the suspense is killing me!

I immediately thought about him when Banton announced he was staying in. He'd be what Banton was last year, but the feedback he got might've been "go dominate another year in a lower conference and you'll be drafted"

 

I would've loved him

Yep, he mentioned on the last podcast that we should be hearing news by the end of the week.  A point guard with high major experience most likely.
