Providence Recruiting Update: In-Home Visits & Visits to Friartown

1 Comment

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.

2016 Wenyen Gabriel Cuts List to 5

4 Comments

Wenyen Gabriel may have been the largest stock-riser in the class of 2016 this grassroots season. The 6’9 combo forward possesses an offer list that reads like a who’s who of college basketball elite. Then there is Providence and Ed Cooley. Cooley has been on Gabriel the longest of any high major school. Providence became Gabriel’s first high major offer back in July 2014. Gabriel’s only other offer at that time was from in-state New Hampshire. On Wednesday Gabriel cut his list down to a final 5 schools. That list is comprised of Duke, Kentucky, Maryland, Providence and UConn, according to a tweet from Adam Finkelstein.

Providence Adds Postgrad Guard Ricky Council to 2015 Class

1 Comment

Providence has been looking to add another guard in the 2015 class for awhile now and there have been some names that popped up over the last few months. A name that Friar fans will remember from the summer of 2014 is Ricky Council. Council was a member of the class of 2014 when Providence first began expressing interest in the 6’4 guard from North Carolina. Following a summer on the grassroots circuit with his non-shoe company affiliated team Brand X, Council opted for a postgraduate year at Moravian Prep and became part of the class of 2015.

ESPN’s Adam Finkelstein followed that up by tweeting that “whispers of Bruce Brown going to ’15 started in early Dec[ember].

2015 Guard Kobie Eubanks Cuts List to 10

2 Comments

I have previously written about Kobie Eubanks back in late November after Providence coaches took in his impressive 37 point performance at the National Prep Showcase in New Haven on the Friday before the Friars played in the Hall of Fame Tipoff at Mohegan Sun. Eubanks is doing a postgrad year at Elev8 Sports Institute in Florida following his failure to qualify at Baylor as a member of the class of 2014.

On Monday he informed Scout.com that he cut his list of schools down to 10 and Providence made the cut for the 121st ranked player according to 247sports’ composite national rankings. Scout.com is the service that ranks him the highest at 53rd nationally.
