Averaged 6ppg as a frosh guard at St Joes in 2022-23, played 22 min per game. St Joes had a LOADED backcourt this past season (as we saw when they wiped the floor with us), so he headed out. Experience at a higher level--nice add for a team that figures to be on the younger side/low on D1 experience.

Look, I’m not making any evaluations until this roster is finalized. But, this guy leaving a program like St Joe’s in early December to me is a red flag. This just seems like a gamble considering how many other guys are in the portal.
I hope we got this right!

I get the concern over him leaving team.
You guys can take this FWIW. I received a surprise DM from the #1 twitter site on Twitter. Told me he will be very very good at Iona. I asked about him leaving early, and my concern, especially with what happened with Gordon.
Sounds like he was caught up in a numbers game. He was honest, said he wasn't a fan of a kid leaving early, but assured me he's an high IQ player and very high character and a really good kid.
Very possible he felt it was best to leave the team and redshirt so he doesn't lose a year of eligibility, which is why he will have 3 years at Iona.
That's good enough for me. This is nothing like the Gordon situation
