Providence Offers Canadian Big Man from Class of 2016
Corey Evans reported on Twitter that the Friars have dished out a new offer to a 2016 big man. Providence offered Kalif Young of Orangeville Prep, a 6’9 250 lb power forward. Providence had been searching high and low for a big man to fill the size void on the roster for next season. Some other names that Providence has been involved with include Isaiah Whaley, Iran Bennett, Darius Hicks and Levi Cook. Whaley recently scheduled an official visit around January 23rd.
Kalif Young has other offers from Loyola Marymount, Pittsburgh and St. Bonaventure, according to VerbalCommits.com. He ran with CIA Bounce on the Nike EYBL grassroots circuit.

Providence Recruiting Update: New Offer in 2016, Visitor Coming to Friartown
It’s been awhile since I last put out a recruiting update post, but that doesn’t mean Ed Cooley and his staff haven’t been on the trail searching for players for 2016 and beyond. In fact, Cooley was on the recruiting trail on Wednesday as he traveled North to Brewster Academy for 2016 forwards Alpha Diallo and Taurean Thompson. Cooley and his staff have also kept an eye South and have arranged an official visit with 2016 big man Isaiah Whaley.
