There have been many discussions about how our recruiting has been ineffective and how we need to “pound the portal”. Isn’t the portal just another form of recruiting? Don’t the same reasons our recruiting has struggled (uncertainty about the coaching situation, perception that the zone doesn’t prepare players for the NBA, short bench, weather etc.) apply when recruiting players from the portal?
I suppose the main differences are ages (and hopefully maturity) of the portal players and Boeheim not traveling to watch games is not as much an issue, but why do people think we can just get players from the portal and we will magically upgrade our talent?
