St. John’s places Malachi Jordan among top 25 studs with recruiting coup

Recently, Rick Pitino talked about a recruiting adjustment to target more high school players.

It didn’t take long for St. John’s to score big in this forum.

On Tuesday morning, the Johnnies landed their first five-star recruit in 13 years, picking up a verbal commitment from top-25 wing Malachi Jordan of Prolific Prep (Calif.).

The 6-foot-7 Jordan chose St. John’s over Kansas and Vanderbilt. He recently made an official visit to Queens.
