This is most likely Graves.
Also, LSU is in the mix for McNeil and Hill. However, Hill is on day 2 of his Tenn visit, and (as expected) NC State is making a huge push to keep McNeil with UNC, also in the mix.

But seriously though, Wade is a really smart dude. It’s not being built in public, but it’s being built. Just be patient.
Nearly 70 of the Top 100 players are already off the board. LSU is listed as a contact for 3 remaining players in the Top 25. Graves looks like the best bet if he doesn't go pro. Terrence Hill is on the 2nd day of his Tennessee visit, and McNeil has gone from "following Wade to LSU" to an NC State vs. UNC battle.
However, this doesn't bother me. I think most people expected Wade to go gangbusters in the portal, signing top players left and right. However, I think Wade is taking a different approach. He is a huge analytics guy, and the NIL-era analytics make it clear that you need a core of returning players to compete for Championships. The Final Four teams this season avg. nearly 50% of their minutes this season coming from returning players. I think Wade is looking for a core of younger players that he believes will return to LSU next season. Then, next season, we will see him adding high profile pieces to start making championship runs.

I saw this post and am curious why Wade and Stoudamire would be at the Portsmouth Invitational Tournament.
Watching Max Mackinnon play.

Cole Cloer, NC State
Signed with Bama today.
The Bengal Tiger? WTF is that?
57 of the Top 100 are already off the board. One of the top guards left that had been linked to LSU, Terrence Hill, is visiting Tennessee today.
I'm pretty sure LSU is the only one on the list with less than two scholarship players

Him, Dual, and Lewis were 3 guys that I really wanted to see at LSU.

The bad news is that about half of the Top 25 transfers are already off the board. The good news is that LSU is still in the mix for about 4.

Sham,
From the contact list - Lowe committed to Georgetown, and Dual committed to Syracuse.

Also, numerous guys on the LSU "contact" list are taking visits to other schools this week.

So Wade still has 0 signees?
My sense is that schools and agents are holding things closer to the vest this go round vs. past portal cycles. Wade has been working around the clock, but there isn't much out there on who he is contacting. The list is much longer than what has been shared publicly.
Damn, Dual was one that I really wanted to see at LSU next season.

Kind of expected a bit more action by this point.
Sounds like Dedan Thomas to Kentucky is picking up steam.

Yeah, one of the top scorers in the portal. He wasn't remotely interested
He screwed Wade last season at NC State. People were making that "He almost played for Wade at NC State last season" connection without thinking it through.
