Elite point guard Dior Johnson gave a verbal commitment to Syracuse basketball in February 2020 and then re-opened his recruiting process back up last November.
Since February of last year, I’ve read countless comments from my fellow Orange fans on social media and in chat rooms that speak to them thinking that the five-star Johnson will never set foot on a college campus.
That is, many ‘Cuse fanatics are prognosticating that the stellar 2022 point guard is heading straight to the professional ranks from high school, rather than taking a year to shine at the collegiate level.
