With Syracuse basketball 2022 prospect Quadir Copeland transferring to the IMG Academy in Bradenton, Fla., for his senior season, I’ve prognosticated that his national rankings will continue to rise and his list of scholarship offers will keep growing.

The 6-foot-6 Copeland, a talented and under-rated point guard in his class, recently landed a new offer from Rick Pitino-led Iona, according to college basketball insider Adam Zagoria and several other tweets.

While Iona isn’t in one of the big-time power conferences, Pitino is a two-time national champion, and if he comes calling, that’s saying something, in my humble opinion.
