Providence Will Get Visit From Fordham Transfer Eric Paschall
Fordham freshman Eric Paschall visited Villanova on April 1st and is now reportedly going to visit Florida the weekend of April 11th, per a tweet from CBS Sports’ Jon Rothstein. Rothstein’s tweet does mention that Providence is “in [the] mix” but there has been no concrete date mentioned for a visit to Friartown. Eric’s father Juan confirmed to me that there is no date set right now but he did tell me that “we will not make any decisions until we visit Providence though.”

Three Wishes for the Providence Offseason
The late transfer of Josh Fortune a year ago left Ed Cooley reeling to find some guard help for the 2014-15 Friars. The announcement coming on the Friday before Memorial Day put Cooley in a difficult spot to try and lure anyone that would be eligible immediately. Tyler Harris already announced his intentions to finish his career elsewhere after he graduates from Providence in mid-May. The other outstanding decision is one that needs to be made by Kris Dunn. Dunn has until April 26th to declare for the NBA Draft.
The offseason will get into full swing once the NCAA Tournament concludes on April 6th. The first live evaluation period for recruiting begins on April 10th and the Spring period begins on April 13th. Cooley and his staff won’t be resting on their laurels and once the offseason gets underway they will be looking to upgrade their roster, whether that is the 2015-16 roster or a future roster.
Here are some things that Providence fans want Santa Cooley to put on their wish list:
