Georgetown should steer clear of this kid--Nate Blue being the reason.

In ZagsBlog interview, Nate Blue says Harkless will take unofficial visits to UCONN, Maryland, St. John's and Georgetown. Take a look at what "advisor" Nate Blue said above--and then look at the final 8 schools on the list. What kind of clown is this guy? I mean STH up if you don't know anything and it's just further proof of what clowns/goons/pimps get involved in the "process" of recruiting. So 2 of those "unofficial visits" don't even make the final 8--so that was some really worthy info Nate. Thanks for sharing--you overinflated, egotistical moron. |

Seems like a perfect recruit for Lavin at St. John's - can offer instant playing time and gets Lavin in the door with some of the local "insiders" involved in high school recruiting.
I am surprised not to see UCONN on his list of 8.

Didn't UConn basically tell him they didn't want him?

Think simplistic--UConn has NCAA on their ass, Harkless has a pimp in Nate Blue--you can't be in bed with recruits like this/pimps like this when NCAA is sniffing around--the "deal" worked out with Pimp had to be altered with NCAA on their ass--so Pimp took his "worker" and shopped him around to highest bidder--which Lavin who is going to have SJU on Probation within 4 years or violating NCAA rules within that time frame is more then willing to do-to get them to win again.

Told you look out for the Johnnies. St. John's will recruit well-Lavin always does--and then they'll be in trouble with NCAA--because that also is what Lavin does. In addition--they have 9-10 scholarships to hand out--and Rutgers has a lot too--and you know how kids love "playing time"--but then some of them will leave too--because not all 9-/10 or 8 in Rutgers case will be playing and then guys get ticked/split. I don't mind SJU-so I hope they do well but Lavin already had an incident on internet site where he was quoted talking about current HS players--and the moron on Rivals (Maurice Wingate) quoted him and then pulled it down--but it was up long enough for several people to see--which means I'm sure some coaches got word/read it--not a good start and a blatant NCAA violation isn't how the "Lav" wants to symbolize his return. I applaud the Staff Lavin hired though--Mike Dunlap was a great hire. |
