#pcbb Weekly Recruiting Update 5/16/14
Another weekend of competition where coaches cannot observe but that hasn’t stopped them from offering a lot of players. You’ll see below the guys that PC has offered lately. Nike EYBL continues action for the 2nd weekend in a row with Session #3 in Hampton, VA on route to the Peach Jam in mid-July. The Adidas Gauntlet picks up where it left off in the April live period with session #2 in Indianapolis this weekend. PC is heavily involved with many elite players that are playing in both the Nike EYBL and the Adidas Gauntlet. Those two AAU circuits are widely considered to be the two best in terms of talent and organization. Here are all of the events this weekend courtesy of CBS Sports’ Jeff Borzello:
May 16-18
- UA Invitational (Houston)
- Adidas Gauntlet #2 (Indianapolis)
- Double Pump Spring Classic (Las Vegas)
- H-Town Classic (Humble, Tx.)
- Las Vegas Grand Opening (Las Vegas)
- NY2LA Invitational (Milwaukee)
- Great Lakes Classic (Dearborn, Mich.)
May 17-18
- Nike EYBL Session #3 (Hampton, Va.)
- Other big news from last weekend is that the Friars never got Larry Austin on campus due to a death in his family. He then committed to Chris Mack and Xavier on Saturday so that’s another 2014 guard off the Friars Big Board.
