I actually think it’s a testament to Carm’s eye for recognizing talent early. They just blow up and go higher. That’s ok I wholeheartedly agree. I do think Carm will get more 3 star guys and continue to get the quality 2 star guys he has gotten in the past from both the prep and portal. I think Carm's recruiting has been solid and the results on the court are testament to that. Carm’s success in recruiting has been evaluating. Sure Javian was listed as a “three star” but had no commitable offers other than ours… Eley two star, no committable offers, Billups recruited mostly by schools below us, Stormo not recruited heavily in the portal, same with guys like Rogers. There hasn’t been any correlation in the Carm era between how heavily recruited a kid has been and his productive they’ve been. Until we have a robust NIL plan we will have to continue to win by finding undervalued kids, not more touted recruits.

You usually have to to go into a crowd for highly rated recruits like that. Bralyn Smith is another 3 star who seems awfully underrecruited given his rating. Eley I can understand being missed playing in flyover country in Indiana - but his obscene HS numbers should have drawn some interest other than Siena.

Indiana may be "flyover" in general terms, but Indiana is well within Basketball America.

Eley I can understand being missed playing in flyover country in Indiana - but his obscene HS numbers should have drawn some interest other than Siena. There was a Youtube video of an entire game featuring Eley and two recruits going to Syracuse in which Eley was clearly the best player on the court. How he didn't get more love in this day and age where you there is so much video out there is mindboggling. McCollum I actually understand more since his small frame likely scared off the big schools.

I can't wrap my head around the fact that Carm was the only D1 coach in America to notice Eley. I mean, his numbers were outrageous. And yet zero interest except Siena.

McCollum I actually understand more since his small frame likely scared off the big schools. Syracuse could really use another guard at this point. Eley had a lot of interest a few years ago, but Covid and the new portal rules really did hurt HS kids. He went away and still no real love from mid majors because they all seem to want kids with experience. Glad Carm saw his talent and scooped him up. Heres hoping we get to see him play for 4 years.

If Carm can't sell Siena's academics over the likes of Harvard he needs to either improve his salesmanship or he should find a new job.
