Following his offer from Iona at the beginning of June and from Connecticut two weeks ago, the Brentwood Academy (N.Y.) star also picked up an offer from Georgia.

The 6-foot-4 shooting guard also holds offers from Big East rivals DePaul, Georgetown, and Seton Hall while Kansas State, Pittsburgh, Rutgers, Virginia Tech, and Wake Forest have also extended an offer.

Programs such as Creighton, Clemson, Miami, North Carolina, and Temple have shown interest in the rising junior but have not officially offered the recruit.

Jordan Riley is also a standout for the New York Lighting on the Nike EYBL Circuit.

St. John’s was one of the first programs to offer Riley back on January 14, only beaten out by Rutgers and Stony Brook as programs to offer the then junior earlier.

The Johnnies also held a virtual meeting with the rising standout guard in mid-May.
