Leave a comment

Scout updated their Class of 2017 Top 100 a day after ESPN did the same thing. There are some names that are in similar ranges between the two services, while others appear on Scout’s that don’t appear on ESPN’s, and vice versa. 2017 commit Dajour Dickens makes his debut in Scout’s Top 100, coming in at 98. He was just outside ESPN’s Top 100.

Providence Recruiting Guide to the First April 2016 Live Evaluation Period

Leave a comment

This weekend kicks off the real recruiting season for members of the class of 2017 and beyond because starting on April 15th a live evaluation period officially begins. A live evaluation period means college coaches are allowed to attend and evaluate recruits at certified events. This particular evaluation period lasts through April 17th with another full weekend of live evaluating on the schedule beginning on April 22nd. Nike and Under Armour will kick off their grassroots leagues in NYC, while adidas gets started in Dallas this weekend. There are also some other events going on this weekend that Providence recruits will be playing in.

As I traditionally do each spring and summer, I’ll be providing a guide for fans to follow along and see where Providence’s targets are playing during a given live evaluation period. This post will be updated as the weekend goes on and more information is known. Continue reading Providence Recruiting Guide to the First April 2016 Live Evaluation Period →

Rivals has released an updated Top 150 for the Class of 2017 and Providence has plenty of recruits among the ranked, including newly committed big man Dajour Dickens.
