2015 PG Justin Robinson Cuts List to 6
Justin Robinson has joined a group of recent Providence recruits to cut his list of schools down to a more manageable number. Robinson’s final 6 are Creighton, Maryland, Providence, Temple, UNLV and Virginia Tech:

Providence has been on Justin Robinson since the winter and they have taken a team approach to his recruitment with a few different coaches keeping in contact with him. Providence was the first major offer for Robinson back in February. Robinson struggled early during the AAU season because he was nursing ankle and wrist injuries but he gutted it out and played through the issues. He plays for the always loaded Boo Williams squad on the EYBL circuit. The crafty left hander transferred from DC powerhouse Montrose Christian last summer to attend St. James School which is coached by the former Montrose Christian staff that Robinson played for his first two years of high school. Robinson led the team to a 22-5 record during the high school season.
Robinson is a pure point guard who is a floor general that can run a team. He is underrated at 119th with his 247sports composite national ranking in my opinion. Robinson recently told me that he will attend the CP3 Elite Camp August 7th-11th and doesn’t plan on any other camps but will begin scheduling visits soon.

Providence Makes Short List for Gill-Caesar
The Hoops Hype CA Twitter account tweeted that 2015 guard Teki Gill-Caesar has a short list and Providence made it.

While the competition seems tough, making this list of six schools can only been seen as good news for the Friars and Ed Cooley. Many people (including 4 of our Friar Crystal Ball pickers) believe Missouri is the favorite with Teki’s former Huntington Prep coach Rob Fulford being hired as an assistant on Kim Anderson’s staff at Mizzou.
If you don’t know much about Jalen Lindsey’s former teammate at Huntington Prep, here are the cliff notes:

AAU Team: CIA Bounce
HS Team: Huntington Prep
Position: Wing
Height/Weight: 6’5 215 lbs
Strengths:
Gill-Ceasar is a big wing guard that cam finish on the break and knock down open shots with three point range. He rebounds well for a perimeter player and does a good job on the defensive end with his ability to defend both wing positions given his good size and strength.Weaknesses:
Gill-Ceasar will need to continue to add to his game in the area of ball handling the most. Which will allow him to create more and make more plays off the dribble.Bottom Line:
Gill-Ceasar is a big guard that is a shot maker and tough guard match up given his size, strength and ability to rebound on the perimeter. He will provide scoring, rebounding and a defensive presence on the college level immediately.
