Providence Recruiting Guide to the 1st April 2015 Live Evaluation Period

3 Comments

This will be the first of two live evaluation periods in the month of April. A live evaluation period means college coaches are allowed to attend and evaluate recruits. This will be the first time coaches can see players in their grassroots setting since July 2014. As I did last spring and summer I’ll be providing a guide for fans to follow along and see where Providence’s targets are playing during a given live evaluation period. I’ll also be doing my best to keep up with the map that tracks where Ed Cooley and his staff are during each live period and any recruiting period in between. This post will be updated as the weekend goes on and more information is known. Continue reading Providence Recruiting Guide to the 1st April 2015 Live Evaluation Period →

Providence Will Host 2015 Lorne Currie on Official Visit

2 Comments

UPDATE 4/9 1:57pm

It was originally reported on Wednesday that Providence was currently hosting 2015 guard Lorne Currie. It has been subsequently learned from Steve Hartnett of ScoutFriars.com that Currie has not officially visited Providence yet.

Providence will reportedly host a guard in the class of 2015 sometime in the near future. Lorne Currie is a 6’3 combo guard from Los Angeles and the original report was via Twitter on April 1st. Dinos Trigonis of the famed Pangos All-American camps tweeted the news:

The visit has apparently been re-scheduled since that tweet above but no date has been announced as of yet.

Currie apparently just got a good SAT score and has been cleared by the NCAA Clearinghouse, per a subsequent tweet from Trigonis. Currie’s offer listed on the site VerbalCommits.com are from Fresno State, Loyola Marymount and Sam Houston State.

Recruiting News: Rivals Class Of 2016 Top 150 Updated

1 Comment

With the first live period beginning on Friday it makes sense that Rivals would want to update their rankings for the class of 2016. That class is now the focus for most schools now that the 2014-15 season has been put to bed officially. Providence only currently has 1 open scholarship for the class of 2016 but that could change depending on Kris Dunn’s decision and any other player movements that could occur between now and the fall of 2016.

Critical Recruiting Season Begins Friday

1 Comment

That title may be a bit misleading, for a number of reasons. One reason is that recruiting season never really starts or stops. It just always is. Another reason is a little more technical in nature — this upcoming window from April 10th through April 12th is actually called an evaluation period. The majority of time between September and June is actually considered a recruiting period, aside from the occasional dead period that coincides with some holidays, the Final Four and large portions of the month of July. You can read up on all the technicalities of the different periods of the recruiting calendar here.
