KENT — Giovanni Santiago's Kent State University men's basketball teammates joke about him being in his eighth year with the Golden Flashes.
The 6-foot-1 guard from Puerto Rico is actually a fifth-year senior, but you get the point.
In an era of college sports inundated with transfer portal news, Santiago has stayed put for what seems like eternity.
Forward Chris Payton Jr. laughed while explaining he's “never seen somebody love a university” as much as Santiago.
