The Seton Hall Pirates have extended an offer to St. John’s basketball target Sean Durugordon.

The local offer are piling up for Class of 2021 recruit Sean Durugordon as the 6-foot-7 small forward.

Kevin Willard and the Seton Hall Pirates are the latest to offer the star from Putnam Science Academy (CT) as other local programs such as Iona and Hofstra offered the Queens, New York native last week.

St. John’s has not officially offered the three-star prospect yet, but Mike Anderson and his coaching staff have been in contact with Durugordon throughout the course of his recruitment.

The offer from Seton Hall becomes the second scholarship from a Big East school that Sean Durugordon received after Dave Leito and DePaul offered the prospect in mid-April.

While the list of suitors is already impressive that Durugordon has courting him, he has even more schools lurking such as Connecticut, Rutgers, Clemson, Creighton, Tulsa, Texas Tech, Xavier, Temple, Missouri, Texas A&M, and Providence, as well as the Red Storm.

St. John’s and second year head coach Mike Anderson do not have a commitment yet from a player in the Class of 2021, but in just his first full offseason as the head coach of the Johnnies, Anderson has been very active on the recruiting trail since the premature end to the season.

The Red Storm finished 17-15 season (5-13 Big East) last season and will bring in a five-man recruiting class in 2020 that is made up of two high school prospect, two junior college players, and one graduate transfer.

Those five players are headlined by high school senior Posh Alexander and JUCO All-American Vince Cole, combining to create the No. 77 recruiting class in the country and No. 6 in the Big East.
