I read somewhere that we are no longer involved with Kier. I'd be interested to see where you read that. The last I saw was that he was considering Georgetown in a top 10 (not final 10, as in he was still open to other schools) and he would be cutting to a final 5 today.

Would be 3. So if I update the above list for 2020 targets (without wasting time on the expired / no offer guys): Moussa Cisse - 5* PF/C - '21, potential reclassify / G-League pathway Efton Reid - 5* PF/C - '21, potential reclassify Karim Mane - 4* PG - no longer considering GU Frankie Collins - 4* PG - '21, potential reclassify Kerwin Walton - 4* SG - decision 4/25 Darius Miles - 3* SF - committed to Alabama Seryee Lewis - 3* PF - committed to Kansas St. Jermontae Hill - 3* SF - GU not listed on 247, top 8 deleted off IG Brandon Murray - 3* SG - prep year at IMG Kahlil Whitney - former 5* SF Kentucky transfer, going pro Seth Towns - former 4* PF Harvard transfer to Ohio St. Mike Smith - PG Columbia transfer to Michigan Patrick Tape - PF Columbia transfer to Duke Brendan Barry - PG Dartmouth, returning to Dartmouth In the 6 weeks since the above list was posted, have we done enough to add anyone to this list that wasn't there before? Akeem Odusipe from Knoxville Catholic and Team Maze (Dante Harris' AAU team) was supposedly offered by Georgetown. Latest on Odusipe below: "Odusipe, a 6-foot-8 forward who spent last season at Knoxville Catholic High School in Tennessee, has been heavily linked with Maryland and Vanderbilt in recent weeks. A three-star prospect, Odusipe led Knoxville Catholic to a state title. Maryland’s lack of frontcourt options presents the possibility for Odusipe to contribute. While he lacks the pedigree of some of Maryland’s other options, Odusipe could provide the Terps with some added competition in the frontcourt." dbknews.com/2020/04/17/maryland-mens-basketball-potential-transfers-recruits-landers-nolley-gabe-watson/

Did we show any interest before he committed to UCF?

Did we show any interest before he committed to UCF? Originally from Virginia, has been a talented kid on the radar for awhile, played for Hoya-friendly AAU program Team Loaded, the answer to that question is very likely "yes".

Pat made the mistake of taking three centers in the ‘19 class and now we may not be as able to take full advantage of opportunities.

Pat made the mistake of taking three centers in the ‘19 class and now we may not be as able to take full advantage of opportunities. Such an overused narrative on this board. Wilson was not a '19, he is a '20. The redshirt was always in the plan. Even when we got down to 6 players, the redshirt stayed on. Ewing took a stud in Wahab and a project who has showed flashes in '19 with Wilson in '20.

Could this be one of those "stealthy" recruitments folks seem to be so fond of?

Could this be one of those "stealthy" recruitments folks seem to be so fond of? I don't know if it is entirely a matter of folks being "fond" of the quiet/stealthy recruits as much as the reality that usually more noise around a recruit means bigger offers and rarely works out in our favor. Just a fact of life right now.

Elijah Wood Georgetown is also one of Wood’s favorites. “I love Patrick Ewing, how Coach [Robert] Kirby has come in and told me bad things about my game and what I can work on to get better,” Wood said of Georgetown. Wood has had more recruiting activity with Georgetown that any other school combining visits to campus and visits from coaches. He attended Georgetown’s game against Villanova earlier this season. Wood sits on the right in the photo below at the Georgetown game. Wood has taken two unofficial visits to Georgetown, one to St. Joesph’s, one to George Washington, one to West Virginia (for the West Virginia/Kentucky game) along with the one to St. John’s. Wood has been receiving interest, but no offers yet, from some of the nations top programs, namely West Virginia, UNC and Kentucky. Wood said that Kentucky will be coming to his AAU games later this year. It came as no surprise when Wood told me that the schools he had higher interest in at this point are the ones he has actually visited. Wood said that he plans to visit other schools on his list down the road. “Anyone who will come talk to me some more, I’d be happy to go see what they have. I really want to get out to visit more, just to experience the college feel,” Wood said. It’s clear that Wood has a lot of potential, and being just a sophomore, he will have time to develop into a better player before stepping on campus at whichever school he chooses. If the pass-first guard can fill out his 6’5” frame in the weight room, he could be even tougher to stop. His recruiting process still has a long way to go, but for now, St. John’s is certainly a contender to land this high ceiling point guard. www.rumbleinthegarden.com/2018/2/18/17008662/recruting-profile-2020-pg-elijah-wood-st-johns-bethesda-chevy-chase-georgetown-west-virginia

Well the coaching staff need to make J Hill a priority again. He’s ranked higher than Murray.

We talkin’ about rankings....not their game, not their game, not their game.....but rankings?!? Not their game that they go out there and actually show what they’ve got. Not the game, we talkin’ about rankings man. I mean how silly is that we talkin’ bout rankings.
