The first two years of the newly configured Big East opened the league season with a marathon tip off on New Year’s Eve. That will change a bit in year 3 as the college football playoff has monopolized New Year’s Eve and the Big East and Fox Sports 1 smartly don’t want to try to compete. While some teams will in fact open their Big East schedules on December 31st, the Fox Sports 1 marathon of games won’t take place until January 2nd. That means some teams will have a very tight turnaround between league games 1 and 2, including the Friars. There are also some games being played on December 30th.
I hope everyone had a lovely Labor Day Weekend and people are ready for the fall to begin. Something that will begin this week is a recruiting period. That means — starting on September 9th — coaches can visit players at their homes and schools. That hasn’t been able to occur since April 22nd. The Providence coaching staff will be very busy on September 9th as they have plans to visit a lot of recruits, either at their homes or at their schools. There are also two more Friar targets that will get attention on and off campus from the Providence coaching staff. More on all of that below.

Scout.com has expanded their class of 2017 rankings from a Top 75 to a Top 100. ESPN released their Top 60 for the class of 2017 but Scout’s Top 100 means there are more slots for Providence recruits to slide into. One of the biggest risers in the rankings was by Makai Ashton-Langford.

ESPN and Scout.com released their updated recruit rankings for the class of 2016 after the summer grassroots season and now it’s time for Rivals to follow suit. ESPN and Scout had differing views on most of the Providence recruits within their Top 100’s. Rivals’ rankings mirror those of ESPN with Wenyen Gabriel jumping from the 80’s to 17. There is also a Friar recruit who is visiting Providence in October that is making his debut in Rivals’ Top 150 in Maliek White and Kevin Marfo rounds out the Top 150 in the final slot. Providence is visiting him at his school on September 9th.
