I know we monitored him this summer and offered, but he was thought to be a UNC lean. They've taken Justin Jackson now, so things may have changed. RDF mentioned this summer about meeting his Dad and how receptive he was to the Hoyas.

If that's the case HAH; I think he stays home.

I would think so as well. I hear IU is all in for him though. Heard he really really likes Duke. Frustrating because they're set as his position for a few years. Does he project more as a 4 or 3 ID? BUt I won't pretend like I know that well that's just what I've heard passed around.

You keep working him and hope for the best although he's also attending the Duke-Carolina game Saturday night.
I'd be surprised if it isn't Duke, but stranger things have happened.

Pinson is a wing; 2/3 really. 6'5 wing

Looks phenomenal (my amateur assessment via YouTube). Looks like he can run the point.

Not an official list per se but Pinson just said he's considering UNC, duke, nc state, Indiana, Kentucky and Gtown. Highly doubt he comes here but pretty amazing JT3 gets Gtown on a list with these other powers (nc state not a power but they are a hometown school) despite everything going on including the recent tourney debacle. People that say he can't recruit are just plain wrong.

Serious question...do you consider getting on a list as a recruiting coup? Or getting a verbal from a top player recruiting success?

To some degree, yes

You can't land them if they won't consider you.

You can't land them if they won't consider you. Exactly. To know that a top recruit holds GU in a similar light that they do UNC, Duke, and UK means that the staff is doing something right.

Kids list hoyas for their benefit and has some benefit for GU; perception. See Isiah Austin.

You can't land them if they won't consider you. And just because you make a list doesn't mean they are actually considering you. Georgetown helps "clean up" your image. And getting on a list to me means jack.

Given our recent history, enj, I understand your point. But again, we definitely won't get Pinson if we don't make the cut. As well, I think you give kids too much credit if you believe they list Georgetown to "clean up" their image. You lost me on that one.

Yeah nobody cares about "cleaning up" their image except for the top 5 guys. If you're listed it's because the program is doing something right. It's a much better alternative to not being listed. MUCH better.

Generally, I would think that kids with a bad image probably wouldn't be smart enough to realize they should clean up their image by listing Georgetown or anybody else. That's giving 15-16 year olds too much credit, I think.

If your list consists of Unc Duke and Indiana do you really need to throw a GTown on there to “clean up” your image? Not sure if serius...
