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

Providence Recruiting Update: Friars Out for Jackson, Will Visit Marfo
August in recruiting means players are cutting and narrowing their lists and schools are trying to make their pitches to get those players onto their campuses for official visits. The Friars have been in that rhythm over these last few weeks, both making and missing list cuts. The next step is to get players that included Providence on their lists to campus. So far there are two recruits that have scheduled visits to Friartown — a guard in Shamorie Ponds and a power forward in JJ Matthews. Ponds is also visiting St. John’s and Minnesota after already visiting Creighton. Matthews is visiting Towson and Murray State before his trip to Providence in early October.
