His name will be mentioned in the pantheon of St. John's greats, and now as he's on the cusp of reaching the NBA he returns to the Eye on the Storm Podcast to reflect on his journey and what awaits. As the NBA Draft commences on 6/23, Zuby Ejiofor looks to be the first player for the Red Storm taken in the first round since Maurice Harkless.

We discuss his legacy at St. John's, his thoughts on the new roster and how he's impacted it, his training for the NBA Combine and Draft, and plenty more as a dream come true is in reach.

In one swift move, Tounde Yessoufou made the decision to pull his name out of the NBA Draft and immediately transferring and committing to Rick Pitino and St. John's. It's the cherry on top of a rollercoaster off-season that now boasts two top 15 portal transfers, and one of the best classes in the sport. A dynamic athlete that changes the entire composition of the Red Storm roster, he's a high powered scorer who brings tenacious energy on the court. St. John's adds arguably a top 3 player in the portal, someone who was being talked about as a late first round draft pick this year, and someone who said picking St. John's was a no brainer. Now the goal is to be a lottery pick next year, but first - win big in Queens.

Zach Braziller of the New York Post joins to break it all down.

This off-season has been an interesting one to say the least. The route to bring players on has been an unconventional one by St. John's standards but is becoming more common amongst the college ranks.

Rick Pitino has completely reshaped the St. John's Red Storm roster with one of the most unique strategies in the sport: loading up on international professionals, overseas veterans, and experienced older players like Quinn Ellis, Djordije Jovanović, and Babacar Sane. Is this the blueprint for the future, or a dangerous gamble? That's the thematic question many are asking about St. John's. We break down the roster construction, fit alongside Ian Jackson, Ruben Prey and Donnie Freeman, and why Pitino may be building his most fascinating team yet.

Plus what impact with the additions of incoming freshman Theo Edema, and Lazar Stojkovic in the front court make plus Avery Brown and Kyle Cuffe Jr. in the backcourt.

A lot has been made of the players added, who was missed and what they'll do with the last two spots. We discuss the roster, what Rick Pitino said earlier this week and more as Kevin Connelly of StormThePaint joins for a little off-season recap.
