Central New York native J.J. Starling, a 2022 four-star point guard, recently said that he is in consistent communication with the Syracuse basketball program, which is terrific to hear.

At the same time, competition for the elite guard continues to grow. The latest scholarship offer sent his way came from Big Ten Conference member Maryland, according to Starling’s bio on the 247Sports Web site.

That pushes the total number of offers to Starling to around 15 at this juncture, per a review of various recruiting services.
